The Sitejet collections feature is really awesome and powerful. However, it does not currently create an RSS / ATOM xml feed, which is used by various tools for marketing and content automation. It also makes it possible for people to subscribe to a blog in rss-reader tools like Reeder or in-browser like Vivaldi.
As such I would like to make a request for enhancement to add a RSS atom xml feed to the collection feature.
yes, this is basic and vital for us, as we are building blogs. We walked away from Word press for Site Jet, but I had no idea they did not do RSS feeds. Let’s hope they get this soon.
Oh no, perhaps I jumped ship to Site Jet too quickly. It kind of feels like Sj does not move very fast, even after all the APP sumo sales. I had hoped that would speed up things. I like SJ, but there are still many features not up to par compared to other companies. I hope this get fixed quickly as Sj has so much promise.
I’m not sure that would be a solution. I’m referring to providing an RSS feed for a blog created in Sitejet so that someone can view the content in any RSS feed reader. That Elfsight tool seems to be a solution for embedding any RSS feed on your webpage. Correct me if I’m wrong.
I am confused as to why all this time later so many basic blog features are still not here. Honestly, all these features should have been here years ago. No comments, I don’t see a way to have a side bar with the categories, no Social Shares built in. Without these features it is not really a blog tool, just a series of other small web pages. This is forcing me back to either Word Press or building a site will Mailerlite or Wix.
I want to request a working RSS feed for the site’s blog section. This would help with feeding blog post over to social media management platforms and aide in automating social media posts via third-party services.
Are we any closer to this than we were a few months ago? If not I will have to consider changing platforms since blogging is a main way my business will be generating traffic.
Any idea when you will release it? We are planning some new projects and it depends on the outcome if we use SiteJet or must go with another provider like Webflow or Weebly. I would love to use SiteJet, since your nice tool is perfect of the planned project. Thanks
That depends. I have never used RSS feeds to post on social media, rather than providing articles for other apps and aggregators and of course Feed-reader.
It can, but having an RSS feed or webhook only gets you halfway there.
You also need something that can read the feed, process that and push it to social media.
You could use something like konnnectzit or syncspider or a full social media tool that support automatically creating posts from an rss feed.
We use this extensively for our clients to provide them with our social media autopilot product, which is why we really needed an rss feed and we ended up building one ourselves. Of course, the one we built ourselves is not going to be as good as a native solution, but it does what we need it to do.
