RSS:Forward Plugin
Description
This Wordpress plugin adds sidebar widgets which will allow the visitor to subscribe to the auto-discovery feed for the site using RSS:Forward.
Two widgets are available, the Button Widget and the Form Widget.
Both have the option of adding a Sidebar title or heading and explanatory text. You can see examples under the Subscribe by email headings on this site.
The Button Widget adds the RSS:Forward icon which when clicked on takes the visitor to the RSS:Forward form where they enter their email address and select their subscription options. Both the heading and text are optional.
The Form Widget has a field for the visitor to enter their email address, and on clicking Submit, their subscription is automatically processed. The heading is optional and there is a default text value.
Note that first time RSS:Forward subscriptions require the subscriber to confirm their email address to prevent spamming etc.
Download
You can download the plugin as a zip or tar.gz file …
