An RSS feed is a tool which lets people view the latest content from your site. The Access Charity Websites contain built in RSS feeds for the homepage and listing pages.
Homepage / Full Website RSS feed
Find the RSS feed for your homepage
You can find the RSS feed for your homepage by adding /handlers/rss.ashx? to the end of your full URL.
For example: http://www.yourdomain.org.uk/handlers/rss.ashx?
Find your full RSS feed
You can find your full RSS feed by adding /handlers/rss.ashx?feed=1 to the end of your URL.
For example: http://www.yourdomain.org.uk/handlers/rss.ashx?feed=1
The full feed covers all RSS-eligible items on your site, including the RSS feed of the homepage.
To filter the RSS by pages and a category, you'll need to add an extra string onto the end of the URL.
