Is it possible to set up two RSS feeds (one summary, one full text)?

  • I want to have a full-text RSS feed that is password-protected and another RSS feed with only the summary (open – for the public).

    The first is no problem — I have my WordPress feed set to summary and that works fine.

    For the second, I tried setting up a Feedburner feed, which can take a password, but the only problem is that that feed is pulling from the same WordPress summary feed, so it’s useless.

    Is there a way to get two separate feeds from the same site? I see on WordPress’ page about RSS they do offer different feed URLs, but they all come from the same source (WordPress’ Reading settings), so they’re basically all the same:
    https://example.com/feed/
    https://example.com/feed/rss/
    https://example.com/feed/rss2/
    https://example.com/feed/rdf/
    https://example.com/feed/atom/`

    I thought there would be an easy way to do this, but I’ve been searching everywhere and can’t find out how.

    It is possible! See Customizing Feeds. You could create your own feed name like /feed/full/. You could base your new feed on the existing RSS2 template. Take out the excerpt conditional portions so only the full content parts remain (the portions relying upon return from get_the_content_feed()). Or simply replace the get_option( 'rss_use_excerpt' ) code with false to permanently negate excerpts on the template.

    OK thanks for that!
