RSS DreamFeeder 2.5.2

RSS DreamFeeder 2.5.2 is created as a small yet useful complete RSS solution which allows you to publish RSS feeds right from Dreamweaver without retyping any content and without having to learn any new RSS/XML codes. It assembles the content you've already created into RSS files that can be linked to or provided to portals for republication. No content management system or databases required.

RSS DreamFeeder allows you to directly edit any kind of RSS feed you want. Open up any feed and click the Content tab and you'll be able to quickly edit the text of your headlines or the url for the audio files you're using in your podcast.

RSS DreamFeeder also includes an integrated search engine that looks through your website for new and updated content to include in your RSS feed. When you process your feed, any new or updated content will be extracted from your HTML or XHTML pages in the method that you specify, and listed as entries within your RSS file.

RSS DreamFeeder generates the RSS files for you so the only work you have to do is update your site and submit your feed to the news sites. It also helps you build links within your pages to the feeds it creates, includes graphics for your links, can build special links for online aggregators, and can even ping RSS caching servers.
