Does the job!

  • Very simple way to get the featured image into a mailchimp RSS campaign. Could have done with this years ago! Thanks.

    Great. I used it on another site the other day and it worked straight away.

    Just switched it on for another one that wants to send out RSS news from https://bizworldireland.org/news/feed/ and simply using *|RSSITEM:IMAGE|* blows the image up huge and distorts the campaign. Even though I have “Resize RSS feed images to fit template” switched on a basic 1-column template in mailchimp.

    Do I need to wrap *|RSSITEM:IMAGE|* in code to force it to stay within the 560 standard template width?

    The RSS feed seems to be outputting a “medium” image which, in my media settings, should only be 300px.

    Thanks.

    The plugin has no options, no settings. It’s super light and super fast. You can change the size/thumbnail picked through a filter, as explained in the description. Otherwise, for the distortion, you need to work on the HTML of your template. That is strictly a CSS/HTML and image sizing issue. Maybe setting a maximum width of 100% with a height in auto would be a good idea.
