Description
atshift Feed Builder creates purpose-specific public feeds from structured information stored in WordPress.
The first release includes:
- Multiple feed configurations.
- Separate creation flows for replacing a WordPress standard RSS feed or adding a custom RSS 2.0 or JSON Feed 1.1 feed.
- Public post type selection.
- Author, public taxonomy term, and allow-listed custom field filters.
- Format-specific mapping of standard output fields.
- WordPress, fixed text, atshift Fields, post-author UPF, explicitly selected post_meta, and optional Pods API value sources.
- Optional field-name integrations for ACF / Secure Custom Fields, Meta Box, and Carbon Fields.
- A public source-adapter API for additional plugin integrations.
- Independent publisher, article-author, primary-source, and reviewer mappings.
- Main image fallback mapping when the primary image source is empty.
- A reader-first preview of the first real item in the current feed order, with matching XML or JSON source in a secondary tab.
- Personal-information warnings and hard exclusion of authentication and permission data.
- Stable item IDs, ETag, Last-Modified, and response caching.
- Existing WordPress feed URLs remain unchanged when their RSS output is replaced.
- Per-feed controls for replacing or disabling standard feeds and advertising custom feeds in the document head.
atshift Fields and atshift User Profile Fields are optional integrations. atshift Feed Builder remains independently usable for standard WordPress post data.
