About this plugin - top

Custom Curated RSS Feeds is a powerful tool to generate RSS feeds for any website from the internet. These feeds will be automatically updated with new articles, without your further intervention.This plugin allows you to create RSS feeds out of almost any web page. Your only task is to provide us with target URL and point on desired blocks in the plugin's visual RSS builder. The rest is the plugin's job. And you get your feeds in seconds!

The plugin will store your RSS feed on your website (similar to RSS feeds that are already present on your site). The plugin will generate a unique URL for each feed you've created. This URL can be used in HTML code at your website or be embedded in any RSS reader or software that manages RSS feeds. It can also be provided to one of many RSS readers or any other RSS-related service.

You no longer need to sign up for expensive services that allow you to create only a limited number of RSS feeds. This plugin (after a one time purchase price), will allow you to create an unlimited number of RSS feeds from any site, and to publish them on your own website.

Once you've created your RSS feed it starts updating automatically. All RSS feed content is updated at a schedule (set in plugin settings). No need to manually regenerate the RSS each time to refresh it, the plugin will do this job for you.

Resulting RSS feeds are fully customizable and rich in content. List of customizable stuff for each items from RSS feeds:

You can define variables in the 'List of Possible Variables:' textfield. Here you can define values to variables, values which will be used in the random sentence forming. Variables can be defined as follows:

You can also use variables in variable definition. Example:
