MemberHi, is there a way for members to subscribe to posts on a private membership site?
May 21, 2014 at 12:18 am #63106admin
KeymasterYeah, our membership plugin has a “secure RSS feed” feature. Go to the settings menu of the plugin and enable the “Display Secure RSS Feed” field. Then your logged-in users will see a link in the login widget that lets them access the feed. If the user has access to a protected blog post article, he/she will have access to it in the RSS feed too.

MemberThat is great news!!
OK, so I enabled the”Display Secure RSS Feed” field.
I can only see the feed feature in the login block (not to specific posts)?
Also, when I click that RSS feature in the login block while I’m logged in… I get this response: No associated application could be found.

KeymasterThe feed is for your blog posts. Tts the same RSS feed you get from wordpress (only the prtected posts are also protected in the feed. Are you using that secure feed URL in a feed reader?

MemberI haven’t placed that URL in a feed reader yet. Is there any info on how to do that?

KeymasterWe don’t have info on how to use a feed reader. Your members who want to use a feed reader to read your blog post from the feed will know what to do. This is like *using email*. Your users who has an email address knows what to do.

Memberhi. OK. I logged in as a member (not admin) and tried to get the Feed to send to my e-mail and it says “no associated application found”.
If I can’t get this to work, I’m sure my members won’t be able to.
How do I get the feed to go to an e-mail?
And, I’d like for members to be notified when someone replies to their comment in the posts. Is this possible?

KeymasterI am not sure how you plan to email a feed.
Lets look at it from a different angle. RSS feed is not something that eMember creates. It is already there on your site. eMember simply protects it. So temporarily deactivate emember and take it out of the equation. Now, try to do the same thing to the RSS feed of your site. Is there some thing you can do with your RSS feed when emember is not active vs when it is not active?
There is a plugin (there are a few actually) that can do the notification for when someone replies to a comment.
