Unable to get Number of Comments - wordpress

I' am using RSS Feeds generated from WordPress Blogs to fetch some Information. WordPress is just too good in providing comprehensive information about a Post and it is quite easy to extract Number of Comments for a Post in RSS Feed. Now the problem is that I didn't find any way to get Number of Comments from RSS Feeds generated by Drupal and Joomla Blogs.
Is there any way to do this?
Any help would be really appriciated.

Have you tried using feedburner by google? feedburner.google.com/ I have in the past had the same issue and for some reason running it through feedburner first seemed to help.

Here is a cool Drupal module that may help you. If your rss field is not generated by views. First Move it into views. Then use this module to output the comment count as a field
http://drupal.org/project/views_rss
Otherwise you'll need to do some theme overrides in the template layer. Drupal does not provide a default method for customizing the core rss feed.

How to Disable the RSS Feed for the Page post type in Wordpress?

I have a website and I noticed every page on my Wordpress site includes an RSS fee for it. For example this page:
https://www.cmlaw.com/bergenfield-employment-lawyers-bergen-county-employment-rights/
Has this feed:
https://www.cmlaw.com/bergenfield-employment-lawyers-bergen-county-employment-rights/feed/
Besides being kind of useless, these /feed urls are clogging up my Search Console so its difficult to manage with every page having a duplicate /feed.
Is there a way to disable every RSS feed for Page post types ONLY. I need the blog feed since I have places that pull from it, that is the same reason I can't block /feed from being crawled.
I found this question and answer but it doesn't mention removing the feed for Pages:
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/332332/disable-every-rss-feed-except-home-feed
Any ideas of insight anyone has would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

API to get posts from a Drupal blog?

I'm giving a shot to rebuilding the newsletter-maker for my wife's company. The prime issue is setting it up to always/automatically, say, link to the 3 most recent posts on their blog.
I can imagine how to start doing with with Rails and Javascript (my areas of "expertise" as a relatively amateur coder), except for the part where I have absolutely no idea where I would get this stream of posts.
The site (and thus the blog) is on Drupal. I know so zero about Drupal that I'm not 100% sure what "on Drupal" actually means. But I googled Drupal API and it's too vast for me to know where to start, and searching "blog" on the API site doesn't return anything helpful.
PS. I do know how to work with APIs. Once I find one!
PPS. Is this just a matter of working with RSS feeds? (Which I also don't know how to do but I imagine it's easy to find an answer)
You can implement an RSS feed with the Views module.
In short, you would have to take the following steps:
create a view of the blog posts. Use filter criteria to select only published posts, and sort criteria to sort blogposts from most recent to older.
add a display 'Feed'
Under 'Feed settings' specify a path.
That's it. For more detailed tutorial, see e.g this link (disclaimer: I'm not the author of the referred blogpost).
Finally, extract the latest three RSS items with your newsletter-maker.

Module to parse RSS feed in Drupal?

I'm trying to simply display an RSS feed as part of my site. A user will put in an RSS URL into a CCK field and I want to take that URL and display the latest RSS results.
I assume there's a module for this but I can't seem to find it.
http://drupal.org/project/feeds will do this and a lot more.
Here's a good video to get started
http://developmentseed.org/blog/2009/dec/15/importing-and-aggregating-stuff-feeds
Regarding your request about integrating with CCK, I don't know how you can do that but that may not be necessary because the feed URL is entered through a dialog of its own. And you can always add other CCK fields to the Feeds Content type.
I ended up using the simplepie module and used the function simplepie_get() included within.
The main feed aggregators are the the core aggregator module, feedAPI module, and the newer feeds module. I'm not sure any of them are set up to integrate with CCK in quite the way you're describing. I suspect that will require some custom development.
If you don't need the feed data in the Drupal database, you could use a javascript library to bring in the feeds on the client side.

Recalcitrant excerpts, full feed missing

I've config'ed a WP blog (now at 3.0) to provide full RSS feeds. Yet WP insists on producing excerpt RSS feeds.
What could cause this? How does WP produce an RSS feed? (i.e. what functions get called, what gets filtered, what hooks run, etc.)
It could be several reasons. Most likely either
a. A plugin the manipulates your RSS feed. Do you have one such installed?
b. Some manipulating code in your theme's "functions.php" file...
Could you check either of those out, or go a bit more into detail?
