Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 7:46 am

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a format for aggregating content from web sites into a single feed. Joomla! provides a built-in RSS reader that you can use to view the latest articles from your favourite Joomla! sites.

To enable RSS in Joomla!, follow these steps:

1. Open the Administrator panel and click on the Site Configuration tab.

2. In the Site Content section, locate the RSS Settings section and click on the Edit link.

3. In the RSS Settings section, you will need to enter the RSS feed URL for the Joomla! site that you want to include in your feed.

You can find the RSS feed URL for your Joomla! site in the Site Information section of the Site Configuration tab.

PRO TIP: If you enable RSS in Joomla, anyone will be able to access your content through an RSS feed. This could potentially expose sensitive information to people who you do not want to have access to it.

4. To enable RSS for your Joomla! site, click on the Enable RSS checkbox and then click on the Save button.

5. When you have finished setting up your RSS feed, you can test it by clicking on the RSS icon on the main toolbar and then selecting the test feed URL that you created in Step 3.

Now that your Joomla! site has RSS enabled, you can easily keep up with the latest news and content from your favourite Joomla! sites. Be sure to bookmark the RSS feed URL so that you can easily access the latest articles when you are browsing your Joomla! site on your computer or mobile device.
