About Postqueue Feeds
From the official readme · v2.0.1Description
An extension for Postqueue. For every postqueue it publishes an RSS feed containing that queue’s posts, in exactly the order the queue puts them in.
Two addresses lead to a queue’s feed, both using the queue’s slug:
https://example.com/feed/my-queue/https://example.com/?feed=my-queue
Nothing has to be set up. Every postqueue gets its feed the moment it exists – including queues added later.
Under Tools › Postqueues, where Postqueue lists the queues, this plugin adds a Feed column showing each queue’s address – so it can be read off and copied where the queue is managed.
Templates
The feed is rendered from template/postqueue-feed-rss2.php, a copy of the RSS2 template WordPress ships. A theme can replace it by putting a file of the same name in a plugin-parts folder, or in any sub folder of one:
your-theme/plugin-parts/postqueue-feed-rss2.phpyour-theme/plugin-parts/anything/postqueue-feed-rss2.php
Child themes take precedence over parent themes.
Installation
- Install and activate Postqueue first – without it this plugin has nothing to publish.
- Install Postqueue Feeds through Plugins › Add New, or upload it to
/wp-content/plugins/. - Activate it through the Plugins menu. That is all: activating rebuilds the rewrite rules by itself.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to save the permalink settings?
No. Activating the plugin rebuilds the rewrite rules, and the rule covers every queue slug at once – so a postqueue created afterwards has its feed straight away. Up to version 1.0 this was necessary, which is why older instructions ask for it.
Can a queue’s feed still be reached as my-queue.xml?
No, that address is gone as of 2.0.0. The rule behind it matched every .xml address on the site – wp-sitemap.xml among them – and answered those with a feed instead of their own content. Use /feed//.
Which posts appear in a feed?
Every published post in the queue, in the queue’s order, with no paging limit. Scheduled posts and drafts are left out.
Changelog
Fixes wp-sitemap.xml, which this plugin has been answering with a feed ever since WordPress 5.5 introduced it. In exchange the address my-queue.xml is gone - use /feed/my-queue/ instead.
