RSS icon displayed in the address bar

  • Hello, everybody!

    I am sorry for the question, but still ….

    I need the RSS icon displayed in the address bar of my FireFox browser.
    Can somebody advice what do I put in the below statements instead of ‘automatic-feed-links’ or ‘rss2_url’ ?

    // wordpress 3.0 and up
    add_theme_support( ‘automatic-feed-links’ );

    <link rel=”alternate” type=”application/rss+xml” title=”<?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?> RSS Feed” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘rss2_url’); ?>” />

    Should it be my blog’s feed URL ?

    Where to click in the WP-admin dashboard OR which file in my cpanel to open to incert this code ?

    I use Lifestyle Child Theme and WordPress 3.1.

    Thank you !

  • As this is a commercial theme and/or its template files are not publically accessible, you need to seek support from the theme vendors.

    As far as I know Firefox removed the RSS button in the browser a few versions ago.

    This actually has nothing to do with your theme or WordPress at all and has everything to do with the browser you are using. Some browsers have chosen to display the RSS feed icon while others have chosen to remove it.

    Hello, esmi and JarretC !

    Thank you very much for your support.
    Sometimes, even in latest FireFox, I come across the websites that have RSS icon in the address bar. For example, try https://www.trafficbeast.com/
    It’s RSS icon works as any Favicon, they may have installed it by their own and it is not a function of FireFox, I don’t know. The website is based on WP 3.2.1.

    As to Lifestyle Child Theme, I am planning another website with a standard free theme. That’s why I really need to know how to handle the code I mentioned in my initial post and I will really appreciate your advice.

    Thank you !

    Yes JarretC is correct. It is with the latest versions of firefox, not related to themes.
