Joomla Tutorial: How to create an RSS Feed and then submit it to FeedBurner

RSS FEED IN JOOMLA?

Joomla already offers a built-in RSS/Atom Feed function using a Core-Component, but it's really hard for new users to implement and use. Some facts about the built-in RSS Feed Component:
  • You may assign a maximum number of item contents (articles), which will be shown in the Feed.
  • You may only assign RSS Feeds to whole Section(s) and/or specific Category(-ies); the articles that are in those Sections and/or Categories will be displayed in the Feeds.
  • You may have as many RSS Feeds as you want; every single Section and Category can have its own Feed.
