Creating RSS feeds or podcasts
The RSS Feed Tool enables you to create one or more RSS feeds/podcasts
from which web visitors can subscribe via their standalone feed reader, Web
browsers or Apple iTunes®. As you create a feed a series of settings can be
applied to the feed which relate to feed title/descriptions, associated images,
copyright information, categories, keywords, etc.
To insert an RSS feed or podcast:
1. Click the RSS Feed Tool button on the Web Objects toolbar's RSS
flyout.
2. Click the Add RSS Feed or Add Podcast button to create a new RSS feed
or podcast entry. A new feed name called New RSS Feed or New Podcast
appears in the left-hand menu. With the entry selected, you'll see a list of
settings for the new entry which can be modified by clicking in the Value
column. Drop-down lists, dialog boxes or text input boxes let you add,
select or modify values for the feed.
