Subdreamer RSS AutoDiscovery

Enabling autodiscovery for your rss feeds allow browsers and aggregators to automatically detect the your feed, this allows search engies, applications, syndicators etc able to better jump on your wagon and subscribe in whatever way it does. The goal of course is syndication to the masses so why not make it as easy as possible!

Firefox, Safari, News readers, Social software, etc can all benefit from having the link embedded into your template.

1.Install the Subdreamer RSS Syndicator.


2. Add a link statement to your design files to point to the Subdreamer RSS Syndicator.

Example:

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Gustoes.com RSS" href="plugins/p47_rsssyn/rssfeed.php" />

Now Firefox and other web interactive applications will be able to detect your RSS feed. You can also add multiple RSS feeds if desired by using the same code but pointing to a different RSS feed. Such as making different Subdreamer categories automatically available for subscription.

Most browsers by default now support this such as IE7. It would be nice to see RSS capability become a core feature of Subdreamer so skin designers can by default include this in their skins.
