• Hi,
    I want my wordpress RSS to show other information (category name) besides the default title, link etc.
    Is there anyway to do this?

    I tried editing my wp-includes/feed-rss2.php like the following.

    $cat_name = "";
    $cats = get_the_category();
    foreach($cats as $cat){
        $cat_name .= "$cat->cat_name ";
    }
    ?>
    <cname><?php echo $cat_name; ?></cname>

    And tried to display the value with JavaScript.

    for(var i=0; i<rss.feed.entries.length; i++){
       var entry = rss.feed.entries[i];
       document.write(entry.title);
       feedHtml += '<li>';
       feedHtml += '<a href="' + entry.link + '">' + entry.cname + entry.title + '</a></li>';
    }

    It failes, and i cant see any <cname> in my rss feeds and of course i go the undefined error when i tried to display entry.cname.

    I bet i’m doing it totally wrong.

    Can someone please enlighten me on how to add additional information to the RSS? (in my case, category name)

    Thank you.
