Magento: 建立RSS，Setting Up RSS Feeds

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an XML-based data format that is used to distribute information online. This means that your customers can subscribe to your RSS feeds and be notified of new products and promotions. RSS is a great way to let your customers know about new products available in your store. RSS Feeds can also be used to publish your product information on shopping aggregation sites.

 

The software that is used to read an RSS feed is called a feed reader. People use feed readers to subscribe to headlines, blogs, podcasts, and much more. Google Reader is just one of the many feed readers which are available online for free.

 

To enable RSS feeds for your store:

1. From the Admin panel, select System > Configuration.
2. In the Configuration panel on the left, under Catalog, select RSS Feeds.
3. In the Rss Config section, set Enable RSS to "Enable." Then, in each section below, set the feeds that you want to activate to "Enable."
   
   1. In the Wishlist section, set Enable RSS to "Enable."
   2. In the Catalog section, set any, or all, of the following feeds to "Enable."
      
      • New Products
      • Special Products
      • Coupons/Discounts
      • Tags Products
      • Top Level Category
4. In the Order section, set Customer Order Status Notification to Enable.
5. Click the Save Config button to save your changes.

Once enabled, any new additions to products, specials, categories, and coupons in your store will be automatically syndicated to the subscribers of each feed.
