Image showing in some feeds

    In our feed images show up for some RSS feeds and also within Mailchimp. We are looking at switching over to another mail service provider and the images are not showing within RSS. We can take a look at https://p3k.org/rss/ and try our feed out there but images do not show. Is there way to have images show up on all RSS feeds using this plugin?

    It looks like images are added to your feed using the <media:content> RSS tag, so images are present. To add them to emails, you probably need extra content in your email template.

    Mailchimp, for example, will display these images if you use the *|RSSITEM:IMAGE|* merge tag. The RSS box viewer you linked to may not parse this tag.

    Send Images to RSS handles images differently–instead of using the <media:content> tag, featured images can be added directly to the RSS feed content, so any feed parser which displays the feed in HTML format should automatically also show images. The RSS tag technique is totally valid, but can be confusing.
