change feed url?

Question

change feed url?

Closed this issue 6 months ago · 7 comments

I'm migrating my blog from something else to mkdocs and my existing feed URL is simply feed.xml.
Since I'm hosting on Github Pages I don't have the ability to configure a server side redirect to feed_rss_created.xml.

Is there a way to configure the plugin to use my desired feed filename?
Alternatively, I'd love to hear other suggestions on how to resolve this without breaking existing links.

Thanks!

Hi @wez

Sorry for the silence, I try to quantify the time I spend on my side-projects. Your requests was on the "roadmap" for long time.

It's now part of the https://github.com/Guts/mkdocs-rss-plugin/releases/tag/1.13.0 version. See the related section in doc: https://guts.github.io/mkdocs-rss-plugin/configuration/#feeds_filenames.

Enjoy and keep me update if it does the trick or note :).

@Guts thanks! I'll try it out when I need need to make an update to the site!

FWIW, I think I'm waiting on mkdocs-material to publish a new version with this new plugin version included before I can try this out. I'm in no rush!

@wez the RSS plugin is not shipped with Material 🤔

It is, they just haven't picked up your latest release yet

You mean that when you pip install material-mkdocs it ships the RSS plugin?

Ok the plugin is referenced as "recomended" extra: https://github.com/squidfunk/mkdocs-material/blob/master/pyproject.toml#L59
