  I have figured out how to get a feed of posts from just one category such as http://zionbuffalo.wordpress.com/category/headlines/feed.

  Is there a way to get a feed of comments from just one category or page? In this case I want a feed of comments from http://zionbuffalo.wordpress.com/prayer-requests/

  Assuming prayer-requests is a category, it might be:

  http://zionbuffalo.wordpress.com/category/prayer-requests/comments/feed

  Actually, it’s a page

  So you are manually putting the list of entries on that page? It will not keep track of the comments of the items you manually put in there. It would be better to have that page for prayer-requests, but also put each of those entries in a category with the same name and follow that feed.

  Thanks for your help, it has helped me wrap my brain around it a little better.

  I’m not putting the entries on that page – members add them directly (as comments) . . . . I’m going to have to think on this some more and maybe do the whole thing differently

  Only your posts can have categories assigned to them. Posts cannot have categories assigned to them. Your comments feed is only for the comments left on posts.
