I'm trying to do an automated newsletter of my wordpress blog on mailchimp.
I've several categories of posts on my blog and i'd like to display them separately in my newsletter.
I used this code in my mailchimp campaign but I doesn't display articles from the category i choose...
If you have 1 min to check it and help me it would be very nice!
Thanks a lot for your help!!!

Haven't tried yet. I don't even know where to begin.
I'm using MailChimp for an RSS campaign but it seems MailChimp only includes new posts from the rss feed. In my case MailChimp should include old posts to.
I thought that tampering with the post's pubDate (setting it to now) in the feed would make MailChimp think it was new but that doesn't seem to work.
Does anyone have an idea on how to 'fool' MailChimp so it includes old posts to?
Thank you in advance
After chatting with Mailchimp support it seems it should be the RSS <pubDate> that defines if your post is included or not.
Problem was that my timezone setting in Mailchimp was not the same as the time timezone posted in the RSS feed...
Try to use the FEEDBLOCK tags (https://us12.admin.mailchimp.com/). MailChimp told me "Any FEEDBLOCK tag in a sense will be its own feed so any dates set for the RSS campaign are ignored."
How can I know whether a specific Wordpress url is a page, category or post? I am setting up a website with articles to be categorized similar to that on hawaii.com.
Using this example, if we take the category 'Vacation Packages', we find under it a listing of the various islands. Are these pages or posts? example: www.hawaii.com/oahu/vacation-packages/. Also, is www.hawaii.com/oahu/ a page or post? I realize that this website is structured so that under each island, you can find links to the various categories such as www.hawaii.com/oahu/attractions/ and www.hawaii.com/oahu/accommodations/. How can I create this same structure?
Any help would be appreciated
I used the plugin 'Post Tags and Categories for Pages' instead. This plugin adds the stock WordPress categories for all of your pages. Pages will show up in the stock WordPress archive queries.

I'm kinda new to wordpress and was wondering if I could do the following:
Let's say I have a site for a bakery and in the mainmenu on top there are four links:
Home - About - Products - Contact
Under the page products I would have a number of posts : Bread, cupcakes, ..etc. all of these posts would be categorized under the category products. Now if I go to the products page I want to see only these posts in a sidebar. Therefor I have two questions:
How can I connect this category to this page
How can I show the posts from this category in a sidebar
If anything is unclear please feel free to ask me, also if you would suggest another way of working please let me know.
Much appreciated, thanks!
[EDIT]
I have found that it is better to add a category for this products category instead of a page. Now I'm still looking to display a static post as an intro for this products category.
For connect this category to this page
you can set product to category archive page from
wp-admin/nav-menus.php
you can create a simple page template to list category post
you can use http://wordpress.org/plugins/list-category-posts/ plugin and use short code like [catlist name="news"] in you page content.
Sorry for noob question. I'm mobile software developer and I haven't seen wordpress dashboard.
My customer is stuck with such trouble: information that he add to site does not shows in rss. And I can't read this information without rss.
Can you provide photo or video guide how to add some category of information to RSS.
For now I receive RSS from such adress : *./feed, .**/visitors/feed
I have a solution. you can get rss by the category of posts.
http://example.com/category/categoryname/feed
