Multiple sections in one RSS feed link
Rather than have a separate subscription for each section, I want users to have one link that subscribes to all feeds on the site (basically 3 sections – news releases, blog and testimonials). The site won’t be updated frequently enough for this to be unwieldy for users, and it makes more sense to have all the feeds in one “Subscribe to site updates” link.
Is there a Txp way I can do this, or will I have to use an external setup such as Feedburner?

Re: Multiple sections in one RSS feed link
I think that <txp:feed_link> gives you that. How may sections are involved depends on the Presentation > Sections Syndicate No/Yes setting per each section. Maybe that’s wrong – I don’t do feeds much.

txp : feed_ link doesn’t support multiple sections, unfortunately, which is why this is an issue for me.

Ah, maybe this is why I see so many TXP people use feedburner. Sorry I can’t help.

Re: Multiple sections in one RSS feed link
the default feed url includes multiple sections however feed_link defaults to the current section

Hi frickinmuck
why don’t you semi hard code it?
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="<txp:site_name />" href="<txp:site_url />?rss=1" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="<txp:site_name />" href="<txp:site_url />?atom=1" />Yiannis

Re: Multiple sections in one RSS feed link
Read the excellent article Create and customize your own RSS feeds. It explains a method using the plugin aks_header to group and manage RSS feeds like ordinary TXP articles. Note that the TXP tag txp_article_custom permits one to use a comma separated list of sections. Once you use this method, you probably won’t ever want to create and manage your feeds from TXP driven sites any other way.
