hib Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Hi there, Is there a way to have an RSS feed generated by a third party blog (that I own and control) be imported to auto-populate a SS blog? The limits on the RSS feed from SS, such as only the last 20 posts, and the removal of the 'blog by email' function, make this necessary. If not, is the only option to iframe that third party blog in a page here, or link to the third party page and try to match the design as closely as possible? Both are very messy. Thanks.

LinaG Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Hi there, I am trying to import an RSS feed into my blog as well at the moment. Did you find a solution for this matter? Thanks and best, Lina Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 (edited) This is the rss feed I use. https://follow.it/ Free and works great with my Squarespace blog. I have a couple of Follow My Stories buttons on my site, which take you here: https://follow.it/my-random-views?action=followPub Edited March 31, 2021 by derricksrandomviews sayreambrosio 1 Link to comment

RSS block only shows SS content, embed says it found page but nothing shows anyway. How did you get yours to work? Why is everything so difficult in SS, even the things that should be easy? I switched over a few months ago and now wondering if this was a mistake. MaunaJordan 1 Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I didn't read the post very carefully. You can't import an RSS from from an external blog into a Squarspace Blog without a plug in like Taggbox Widget. That has a cost to it, but it is supposed to do what you want. https://taggbox.com/support/add-rss-feed-to-squarespace-website/ Link to comment
