RSS tags in your sidebar on your blog

WordPress Made EAsy

Once again a question from the call this month. Today’s question is:

how do I get the rss feed chicklets on my blog pages like you have?

Well that is relatively easy. It is done with a plugin called Subscibe me. You will need to change the default settings once you upload and activate it.

There is only one set to show by default. Just check the others and make sure to add the subscribe me widget to your sidebar and you will have them showing. Personally, I prefer to use the dropdown but haven’t gone back and changed some of my older blogs but these questions are always a reminder to me too ;).

To summarize - Upload the plugin to the plugins folder. Go to dashboard and select plugins then activate it. Finally, just click on the options and change it to suit your needs.

Have a question or a comment? I always love to hear from my readers.

    Hi Charles

    That is part of the theme. I am just using blockquotes for the questions and this theme uses that background.

    One of the things I tell customers is to check out the actual themes and make sure that you like the way it handles fonts, blockquotes and other features.
