Add an RSS Feed

An RSS feed is a computer-parsable representation of a website or blog. In other words, the formatting is stripped from a website and just the meat of it is written to a feed. This makes it easier for computers to make sense of rich data to do things such as recommend news articles or create new content items for you.

Your Social Media Manager allows you to add an RSS feed. For example, your Voyager Website blog. Visit the How do I find an RSS feed? article for other RSS feed sources.

Review the steps below to understand how to add an RSS feed using the Social Media Manager's Auto Import feature. This feature automatically imports content from your blog or website into your Content Library. The importer runs every hour.

1.) From your Dashboard, click on Auto Import in the left side menu.

• 

2.) Click the green New Source button at the top right corner.

• 

3.) In the pop-up window:

• Title to your feed.
• Select RSS Feed as the source.
• Append /1/feed to your Weebly website domain ( https://yourweeblywebsite.com/1/feed )

• You can also click Toggle Advanced for more advanced options. These include:

  • Recycle Content - Whether or not content imported from this source should be recycled

  • Require Approval - Whether or not content imported from this source should be approved before it's published

  • Auto Generate Captions - If enabled, the system will use natural language processing to read the article and extract key quotes or sentences to be shared on social media

  • Post new content as it's added - If enabled, the system will automatically publish your content to social media as it's added

  • Categories - Add categories to your blog posts as they're imported

  • Accounts - Select the default accounts content from this feed will automatically post to

4.) Click the green Next button to continue.

5.) Select the content you want to import. You can either click the green Select All button or individually select pieces of content. A blue checkmark denotes the content you've selected.

6.) Click the green Import X Items when you're done selecting the content you want to import.

You've now successfully created an RSS feed. You can always view your RSS feed and update it from the Auto Import section.

• Click the pencil icon to edit your feed. Click the cycle icon to update the feed on-demand.

You can also visit your Content Library to see the imported content.
