User Guide for Odoo Website RSS Feed Generator

INTRODUCTION

Odoo Website RSS Feed Generator is a handy tool that automatically creates an RSS feed link for your published blog posts. Furthermore, it auto-shares blogs without effort.

Once you install and set up the module, Odoo’s cron jobs automatically keep your blog feed updated in real-time. As a result, admin access keeps the feed secure and auto-updated.

Therefore, it’s ideal for sharing blogs easily. Moreover, it securely manages your feed by letting only admin users view or control the RSS feed URL.

FEATURES 

• Module instantly generates a unique RSS URL for your blog and automatically updates it with every new post.
• Moreover, admin users manage and view the feed directly, ensuring it stays secure and under control.
• Uses Odoo cron jobs to update the feed in the background—no manual work is needed.
• Blog posts are shown in a format that other websites and apps can easily read and use.
