I use FeedDemon and I noticed that some Tumblr RSS feeds had stopped working recently. I thought it was random but I found out that all of the feeds that stopped working were for NSFW blogs.
It seems as though Tumblr's default safe mode filter is preventing RSS feeds from working for NSFW blogs. An example of how trying to access one of these feeds can be found here, it appears as though the html for the 'safe mode' page is accessed instead of the RSS itself. Is there any way to make it so that these feeds can be accessed from a program such as FeedDemon?
UPDATE: it appears as though tumblr has changed their policy, as NSFW blog RSS feeds can now be accessed by my RSS reader without any modification done by myself.
It appears that Tumblr has made an exception for Feedburner ― all Tumblr RSS feeds can be retrieved by Feedburner, and from there they can be read by any aggregator.
The basic steps:
Log in to / create account for Feedburner
Get the url of the RSS feed for the blog in question (e.g., https://staff.tumblr.com/rss)
Enter that url in the field under "Burn a feed right this instant"
Review the presented options, then hit Next »
Add the displayed Feedburner url to your feed reader
Late answer but I had the same problem. Feeddemon uses your internet browser you've set up in the options to check feeds - In my case Internet Explorer. All you need to do is log in to tumblr using that browser and your feed will be able to access the nsfw rss feed.

I have a site created with wordpress and I would like to inform all my visitors about the latest uploads and/or posts.
I tried to use WP RSS Aggregator, but I can't even get my feed using: https://dir.szkt.hu/feed/ as suggested in wp codex.
I do not get a basic feed list, just a bunch of crapy code:image
Ps help me.
Thx
The URL that you included in your question is going to a login page.
The most likely situation is that you, in your browser, logged into your site, are seeing the raw XML code of the feed. But when you put the URL into a feed reader, that software is not authenticated to the site. It sees the HTML of your login page, just like any random visitor to the site would.
Since the login page's HTML is not a valid feed, you get an error:
Invalid feed URL
The probable solution: you need to make the feed URL public, and not require a login to view it.
It is the feed. Use some feed reader to view it correctly.
I have a site that I have set up a lot of Applets for in IFTTT. Now I have changed the domain for my site, and don't see how I can easily change the RSS-feed link (to the new domain) in IFTTT.
If I go to https://ifttt.com/feed and then click on Settings, I can disconnect the RSS feed. But I don't want to do that, just change the URL to the feed.
I have searched Google and SO, but not found the answer.
How can I change the RSS feed link for my IFTTT?
Can I automatically send RSS feed of Wordpress Podcast to iTunes using Powerpress?
Yes, but "send" is not the correct term.
Here's a quick explanation of how podcasting works:
An XML page on your web site (e.g. example.com/feed/podcast/) maintains a list of your blog posts/podcast episodes. This unique URL is then used to submit to podcast directories including iTunes. iTunes and other directories will check this URL every so often (iTunes case it's every 4 hours) for updates and changes. If iTunes sees new content, it will make that new content appear on the iTunes podcast directory, typically within a few hours. This process is better described as "syndication".
WordPress provides RSS feeds for blogging automatically. What PowerPress does is give you a podcast only RSS feed, which is necessary to optimize the blog posts in the feed for only podcast consumption. In a perfect world you would use the blog feed (which mixes your blog posts and episodes) for your news subscribers, and use the podcast only feed for your podcast subscriptions.
I have redirected my Wordpress RSS feed (domain.com/feed) to FeedBurner, and made the FeedBurner feed the one publicly visible.
Still, the URL of the Wordpress RSS feed is the standard for any Wordpress blog (.../feed), and I have noticed that many readers are manually setting their RSS to this feed rather the FeedBurner url.
How can I change Wordpress' feed address so that it is private to the public, but still available to FeedBurner?
You need to look for a plugin called Feedsmith. It does this perfectly.
there are many ways to do that ,but this plugin do it easily for you , just enable and set security token:

I have recently taken over a site which has a wordpress blog on a subdomain. I need to list all the posts on a 'news' page.
The page I need to display it on is a HTML page. I have looked into doing an RSS feed but had no luck. I've also looked into pulling the data from the database but I lack the skills!
Any help would be great.

That's the best way to do it. What doesn't work?
