The Feeds Module is where you can create and manage feeds for your Amplify Website ministry content: sermons, articles, and events. The sermons and article feeds are created for you by default, and you can add more for specific campuses, ministries, etc.
Within your Amplify Website dashboard, this area is located under Communications > Feeds.
Add a New Feed
Within the Feeds module, select the "Add New Feed" button at the top right. The following fields are available:
- Type: select the module to pull content from
- Use Group, Series, Category, or Preacher/Author: After a module is chosen, select any "Use" options you'd like, such as "Use Category" or "Use Group". With these options, you will limit your feed to include only the Group, Series, Category, or Preacher you set here. Otherwise, all items will be included in the feed. Options shown will vary based on the module selected.
- Medium: the default is to pull in all content
- Podcast Category: choose a category that best describes your podcast.
- Title: add a title for your feed
- Number of Items in Feed: the default is 10, so you can increase this number or leave blank for unlimited.
- Description: a complete description of the content. It should be less than 4000 characters.
- Logo: this sets the image for your feed
When you're done, click "Add Feed". After several minutes, the XML file feed will be available at the URL displayed in the feed list. With this link, users can manually subscribe to your content, or you can provide this URL within our Mobile App, to Apple, or any other media consumption or podcast service.
