Hi

How do I create a RSS feed from a single catogory blog? what would the URL be?

Many thanks
Hi there,

Make sure you had enabled 'Show Subscribe RSS' at the Single Categories settings as shown in the 1st screenshot.

Then, go to categories page and subscribe to the single category's RSS Feed as shown in the 2nd screenshot.

Can you have a try and see how it goes?

Hi Irwin

Thank you for your responce.

These setting mentioned have already been selected. I don't think that the template show up the rss feed icon.
Is there a way using the catogory ID within the URL?

...?format=feed&type=rss

Many thanks

Jason

Hi there,

The RSS feed icon shows fine on your single category as shown in the screenshot. http://take.ms/I6ZKf

Am I missing anything?

It does not show on ANY of my sites - and all have the Show RSS feed turned on it the settings per above.

See https://www.go4apes.com/blog as an example.

Hey Lan,

The reason why it does not show the RSS icon on the toolbar under blog listing page is because we already removed this since 5.2 version and the main reason is because the toolbar can't fit everything in 1 line so we decide to get rid of that RSS icon, imagine if those toolbar menu word too long and the component toolbar display less than 700px width, it definitely will show very crowded. (https://take.ms/Myazy English word still fine.)

If you really want to display that RSS icon on the toolbar, you can apply this following code into this file, you can check my attached screenshot which line you should put it.

JoomlaFolder/components/com_easyblog/themes/wireframe/toolbar/default.php


<div class="o-nav__item"
data-original-title="<?php echo JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_SUBSCRIBE_FEEDS');?>"
data-placement="top"
data-eb-provide="tooltip"
>
<a class="o-nav__link eb-toolbar__link" href="<?php echo EB::feeds()->getFeedURL('index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=latest');?>">
<i class="fa fa-rss-square"></i>
<span class="eb-toolbar__link-text"><?php echo JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_SUBSCRIBE_FEEDS');?></span>
</a>
</div>


Then override into your current template file location JoomlaFolder/templates/YourCurrentTemplate/html/com_easyblog/toolbar/default.php
