    I am a beginner completely to RSS and XML. Can I use my WordPress dashboard to create an RSS feed of my blog (hosted by WordPress)? How do I start, what do I download, where do I go??? I am completely lost, any instructions would be appreciated!

    Hi

    RSS is already built into WordPress. There is nothing you need to do or add. RSS2 is probably the most widely used format

    If you have permalinks enabled on your site, your main-content (posts) feed is accessible via the following URLs, depending on which feed format you would like to use:
    * http://domain.tld/feed/ (RSS 2.0 format)
    * http://domain.tld/feed/rss2/ (RSS 2.0 format)
    * http://domain.tld/feed/rss/ (RSS 0.92 format)
    * http://domain.tld/feed/rdf/ (RDF/RSS 1.0 format)
    * http://domain.tld/feed/atom/ (Atom format)

    Alternately, your main-content (posts) feed is also available at the following URLs, depending on desired format:
    * http://domain.tld/?feed=rss2 (RSS 2.0 format)
    * http://domain.tld/?feed=rss (RSS 0.92 format)
    * http://domain.tld/?feed=rdf (RDF/RSS 1.0 format)
    * http://domain.tld/?feed=atom (Atom format)

    Thanks, this helps. But how do I enable the feed/add a link in the WordPress dashboard?
