On my old blog, any posts tagged with R
appeared in special rss feed with the tag R
, which was picked up by r-bloggers. On this shiny new blog powered by blot.im, that doesn’t happen automatically. So if you are using blot and want to contribute to r-bloggers, follow along with what I did, thanks to a tip from the Maker of blot:
rfeed.xml
(.xml to ensure the proper content-type is used). As URL I specified /rfeed.rss.tagged.R
. (I had to post the code on github because it gets eaten by blot.) I tweaked the example given to include the body of the post as well.Now as I tagged this post with R
, it should appear in the feed. I could also have created a tag folder called ‘[R]’ to hold such posts but it is enough just to tag posts with the R
tag.
