When I talked about customizing the length of your WordPress feed<\/a> I mentioned that I was using the More Feed Excerpt<\/a> plugin in an effort to force WordPress to split RSS feeds at the “more” tag.\u00a0 After talking to the developer of the More Feed Excerpt plugin, George Notaras, I decided to take his advice<\/a> and give version 1.99 of Ozh’ Better Feed plugin<\/a> a try.<\/p>\n

At that time it would be fair to say the Better Feed plugin was quite rough or “unpolished” at the very least.\u00a0 All of the features worked but the lack of an administrative interface forced you to dig deep into the PHP code to edit variables and template text.\u00a0 The plugin included a function to put related Categories in the RSS feed’s footer but I had to cobble together my own function to display a list of related Tags.<\/p>\n

BUT… fortunately for you version 2.0 of the Better Feed plugin<\/a> has just been released and it provides a great<\/em> new admin interface and a Related Tags feature<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
