    Are there any instructions to setting up the RSS features with Link Library? Many features but I cannot understand how to make it all work?

    So many plugin developers assume the users are mid-level experienced or better with WP and do not include basic setup documentation. I cannot count how many plugins I have uninstalled or not purchased because the instructions were poor or, worse, don’t exist.

    Thanks in advance for any help offered.

    To publish an RSS feed of your links, go to the RSS Feed tab of Library Settings and check the box ‘Publish RSS Feed’.

    Doing this adds an extra field to your web page header that browsers will be able to key on to offer the ability to view or subscribe to the RSS Feed.

    The address of the feed is going to be:
    http://mywebsite.com/feed/linklibraryfeed?settingsset=1

    Where the number after settingsset corresponds to the library settings number. You can use this address to create a link or button for visitors to easily subscribe.

    I have added this information on the wiki page for the plugin: http://ylefebvre.ca/wppluginsdoc/index.php/RSS_Feed

    Please let me know if this helps and consider donating to support this plugin’s development.

    Thank you for the response. Your solution worked. thank you.

    The confusion comes on the RSS Feed tab with these instructions: “RSS Feed Web Address (default yoursite.com?link_library_rss_feed=1&settingset=1 )”

    Using the link above with our domain name does not go to the rss feed page.

    Yes, I definitely will consider donating. Thank you.

    I see. That was the old URL for the feed. I will correct it in the next update.
