    I'm trying to use TwitterFeed but with their new upgrade and my lack of computer skills I'm stuck :)

    I need to develop an RSS 2.0 feed with <PubDate>. I'm using a WordPress (StudioPress-Chrome) site and the feed that is now available is 0.92.

    I've been reading how to write the RSS feed and where to publish it but need to include the PubDate. I can't determine if I have to change the Publication date manually every 24 hours or if there is a way to insert code that changes the date every 24 hours.

    Anyone know what I should be doing?

    THANKS!

    Gail

    The easiest way to create an RSS feed is to use software. I would recommend is FeedForAll (there is a Windows and a Mac version). There is a built-in wizard that will walk you through the process of creating a feed.

    You can download an evaluation version from http://www.feedforall.com

    If you prefer to create the feed by hand this website details how to hand code the RSS feed http://www.make-rss-feeds.com
