iWeb RSS

iweb rssYour iWeb blog has an RSS feed built right in. But you can make it easier for your readers to subscribe to it. This screencast shows how to provide links that add your feed to My Yahoo and Google homepage.

We’ll also look at making sure the RSS feed works when you publish to a folder instead of .Mac. If you’ve found the iWeb URL field confusing, we’ll clear things up. If you don’t enter the right URL in the field your iWeb RSS feed won’t work.

When you’re done watching, click Murphy’s Yahoo / Google links on his start page. You wouldn’t want to miss a post!

NOTE: If you’re here because the RSS feed on your iWeb blog doesn’t work, make sure you watch the second half of this screencast.

  1. Hello,

    I followed your screencast and the RSS feeds basically work but thumbnails never display in IE, Firefox and Safari. Any hints?

    Thanks!

  2. The RSS tutorial was great and it worked for Yahoo but not Google (the message on Google reads (Information is temporarily unavailable). I’ve checked it over and over again for any typos I might have made, but it seems everything is in working order. Any ideas?

    Question 2: I want to change the title of the RSS “Events”–which I didn’t select in the first place, to another name like “Calender” but even though the word “Event” is no longer listed in the URL or iWeb, it is still coming up as the title in Yahoo and Google.

    I appreciate any assistance.

    Thanks!
