  Hello. I’m an avid user of WordPress and have been using it for almost 2 years now. I recently started using it for my business and wanted to use a service that reads my RSS feed to automatically post to various social media services. The app I am using doesn’t accept relative urls such as http://myblog.com/feed/ so I am trying to figure out what the exact name of the rss file is. In experimenting, I found that it will accept something like http://myblog.com/feed/filename.rss but http://www.myblog.com/feed/index.rss doesn’t seem to work like I thought it would. Is there another default for the filename or is it something that is generated randomly?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  That is very peculiar indeed. What service is this? You’d think any service that did this could use the standard RSS link.

  There is no “RSS file”. The RSS is dynamically created on the fly as needed (when someone puts the RSS feed URL into their browser and hit return). This is pretty much the same with all RSS web wide: dynamic rather than static.

  I think I would look for another app if I were you.
