In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Image not in image tagHi Scott,
Look in the <Description> tag, our plugin by default prepends the Featured Image HTML into that tag. It works great with Mailchimp and other RSS-based services that already pull in the RSS Description item.
The premium version offers Media tag and <image> support, use the free trial to see if that works how you want. It provides for completely custom design using each element separately.

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] 6″ between image and textHi there,
Thanks for the kind words. Hmm, in looking on that page, I’m not seeing the white space, it looks good.
Let me know if this is still an issue for you?

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Feedly Does Not Show My BlogThanks for using our plugin, I think, with your RSS feed.
We don’t offer support for Feedly, and I believe they control how your site shows up in their search, under the name or URL, etc. Have you contacted them about Feedly search?
Our plugin adds the Featured Images to the RSS feed, it doesn’t add your logo or meta description, you would need to customize your RSS feed, or find a plugin that offers that functionality.

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] *|RSSITEM:IMAGE|*Thank you for the kind words, we’re glad it’s working well for you!
Yes, for complete custom template design, the RSSITEM:IMAGE support is available as the Media Tag option in the Premium version. Please use the 14 day free trial to configure it and get it working to your satisfaction before purchasing the Premium license.
With our Premium support, we can help with any custom Mailchimp template CSS as well.

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Freemius ErrorsHi all,
I’ve found out you can ignore the Fatal Error email, it is generated by WordPress only on that page /network/setup.php that no one visits on non-multisite sites – it’s a false alarm. The logic in the SDK that gets tripped on that page never happens on any public or admin page.
The latest Freemius SDK resolves the error, and we’ll be updating the SDK shortly, but in the mean time you can ignore that particular Freemius fatal error regarding /network/setup.php
We’re not sure how or why WordPress is accessing that particular page, and it’s not something that is a security issue on non-multisite sites.

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Freemius ErrorsHi Corey,
I appreciate you alerting us. this is a fatal error in the Freemius SDK @freemius, so I can reach out to them and see what the cause could be regarding get_blog_list() – but from doing some researching now, it seems like it could be related to an older version of WordPress and the use of Multisite, here’s their response to this exact error 5 months ago:
“We did some digging, and the only case in which the SDK calls that function is when the get_sites() and wp_get_sites() core methods are not defined. But, get_sites() is supported from WP 4.6 and higher, so it should be available on your version 4.9.9. I also looked at the execution logic and the function is included in ms-blogs.php which is required in wp-settings.php before the inclusion of any plugins.
So frankly, I don’t understand how this situation is even possible unless there’s something custom that changes the expected result of is_multisite() when wp-settings.php is executed.
Do you have any MU plugins installed? or anything special in the environment?”
I assume they are using a version of WordPress newer than v4.6, and are running Multisite, which uses get_blog_list, can you confirm?
Hi Amy,
Using our plugin you can choose which size the image is output as, and then in the Mailchimp template will usually require some custom CSS to change the image alignment.
Here’s custom CSS you can try, added to the very top of the template, added in the code area by clicking on the <> icon:
<style> .mcnTextContent img { width: 150px; float: left; max-width: 100%; margin-right: 15px; }</style>
Let me know how that works for you?

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Pull in page featured imagesPages by default do not show up in the WordPress RSS feed, however this plugin may help do what you want:
https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/rss-includes-pages/Then you could see if the pages show up, only modified or recent pages, last X pages, etc.
Hope that helps.
Hi there,
I see the images in your raw feed… perhaps it is a browser or feed caching issue? Try clearing the cache, or view the feed using a “cachebusting” URL like:
domain.com/feed/?nocacheSee if that helps, and let me know if not.

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] PHP 7.2 Compatibility?Ah ok @jdembowski no worries, thank you. I wasn’t aware, noted.
Oh, one thing I noticed today, can you look into previous replies gone missing on some of our plugin’s support threads (marked as having only 1 post)? I am sure we replied, but now they are not displayed? Is that something you can fix or let me know about?
A few of the threads mention “thanks for your reply” and I realized the reply is missing.
Thank you in advance.
Ah this thread was missed because it was marked as resolved without comment, but please let me know if there are any outstanding issues, or if that was on accident. This is typically a cached feed issue, happy to help if not.

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] PHP 7.2 Compatibility?Ah yes, thank you both for the follow-up. The warning message was with our SDK provider Freemius, and they’ve addressed it in their SDK which we updated in our plugin, so it’s all good now, no more PHP 7.x warnings. We use our plugin on sites running PHP v7.1, 7.2, and 7.3.x without issues.
I appreciate you using our plugin!

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Grainy image in RSS feed emailHi Kim,
Usually grainy or pixelated photos means the featured image is too small, has that changed recently?
Mailchimp usually ignores our plugin’s CSS, but it may be using the size specified on the plugin’s option page. For best quality, we recommend choosing “Full” for the size.
Let me know if that helps or not? Do a few test sends if possible to test.
