It’s really straightforward. No pesky options to worry about. Once it’s installed, simply click the Feed link next to the user’s name under Users > All Users in your network admin to open that user’s feed in a new window.
How Will You Use It?
Here’s some examples:
- Use a theme that pulls RSS feeds onto it’s homepage
- Add it to a 3rd Party RSS feed widget in the side bar
- Let readers subscribe to it using a feed reader
To Get Started:
Start by reading Installing plugins section in our comprehensive WordPress and WordPress Multisite Manual if you are new to WordPress.
Important: the Post Indexer plugin must be installed and activated on your site before installing this plugin.
Once the Global Author Posts Feed plugin is installed and activated, your new feed will be created at:
http://yourdomain.tld/feed/globalauthorpostsfeed?author=USERID
To Use
A new link is now added to the row of actions for each user under Users > All Users in your network admin. Simply click the link to open that user’s feed in a new window.
