Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Custom Messages In RSS Feed lets you append or prepend any text or HTML to every item in your blog’s RSS feed.

It is handy when your content is syndicated without proper credit: add a copyright notice, a “the post first appeared on…” source link, or a small logo or icon that links back to your site so the attribution travels with your content.

Everything is configured from a single settings page at Settings → Message In RSS Feed.

Features

  • Add a custom message to the start or the end of each feed item.
  • Plain text or HTML — insert links, images, or a blog logo.
  • HTML is sanitized automatically, so unsafe tags and scripts can never reach your feed.
  • Lightweight: no database tables, no front-end assets, just two small options.

Usage

Open Settings → Message In RSS Feed, type the text or HTML you want to add, choose whether it appears at the start or the end of each feed item, and save. The message is then added to every item in your RSS feed.
