Help with RSS Feeds
What are Feeds?
Feeds allow you to see when websites have added new content. As soon it’s published, all the latest news and information can be seen in one place, without having to return to our site.
Feeds are generally known as RSS (‘Really Simple Syndication’) which are just web pages, designed to be read by computers rather than people.
Access our feed by clicking the Red RSS button at the bottom of every page
How do I start using Feeds?
You’ll need one of the following to read RSS feeds:
Modern web browser
Most modern browsers, including Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer, Safari and Chrome automatically check for feeds when you visit a website, and display the orange RSS icon when they find one. Many of them allow you to add RSS feeds as a browser favourite or bookmark folder, automatically updating them with the latest content.
Web-based news reader
Web-based news readers check feeds and displays any new articles that have been added. They let you catch up with your RSS feed subscriptions from any computer, making this option useful if you want to access the feeds from multiple computers or devices.
Desktop news reader
Some email software allows you to read RSS feeds. In addition, there is dedicated news reader software available that you can download and install on your computer.
Mobile news reader
There are even smartphone apps to help you find our feed on your phone.
How do I get a news reader?
There is a range of different news readers available and new versions are appearing all the time. Different news readers work on different operating systems, so you will need to choose one that will work with your computer.
Once you have chosen a news reader, all you have to do is to decide what content you want it to receive. At present we have a single feed but very soon we’ll have feeds for every project. You can choose to receive everything or simply the projects you’re most interested in.
If you click on the RSS button you can subscribe to the feed in various ways, including by dragging the URL of the feed into your news reader or by cutting and pasting the same URL into a new feed in your news reader. Most sites that offer feeds use a similar orange button, but some may just have a normal web link.
Using our feed on your site
Please do – the more the merrier! If you run your own website, you can display the latest headlines from our site on your own site using RSS.
We encourage the use of our feeds as part of a website, however, we do require that the proper format and attribution is used when BBC News content appears. The attribution text should read “Family Resource Centre UK” or “familyresourcecentreuk.org.uk/feed” as appropriate. You may not use any of our official trademarks.
We reserve the right to prevent the distribution of our content and, please note, we do not accept any liability for these feeds.
