Daily Kos RSS feeds

RSS feeds serve several good purposes In our busy and fast-moving online media environment.

We make RSS feeds available for a wide variety of classifications. It's a text-only format, so compatible with every device. RSS feed readers may be obtained via the usual app sources; many good ones are free or very inexpensive. The platform from which you obtain the feed reader will tell you the system requirements. Once you install it, then you can prompt the reader to find Daily Kos. 

Many feed readers will also support "subfeeds," not merely the feed supplying front-page content. Some of these are supported directly by WordPress, which enables an easy translation, in effect, from a Daily Kos URL to one that is easily represented by a feed reader.

Thus, for example, any Daily Kos URL containing the word category can be converted to a form that a feed reader recognizes by adding  /feed   to the end of our URL.

A similar standard built into WordPress facilitates this conversion for other classifications of posts on Daily Kos, such as tag and group .

Here are some examples to paste into a feed reader search to preview/add:

We have added a plugin to handle the classifications that are not part of WordPress's standard nomenclature. Adding this text /rss.xml to the end of a Daily Kos URL allows a feed reader to interpret it.

Try these examples to see how it works:

IMPORTANT: It is worth noting that the site no longer supports the conversion of the entire story (or story list) by the feed reader, only a preview of the content we serve here.
