YT2Posts – v2.2.0
- New RSS Feed: the RSS Feed for video posts has been added. The URL of the RSS feed for YouTube posts is following the standard WordPress convention e.g. yourdomain.com/<rewrite-slug>/feed. By default, <rewrite-slug> will be youtube, but you can change it to whatever you like in the YT2Posts Settings Page. This means the default URL for the RSS Feed is yourdomain.com/youtube/feed unless you change the rewrite-slug. In case you change the rewrite slug in YT2Posts Settings, make sure to also flush wordpress permalinks by going to WordPress Dashboard->Settings->Permalinks->Save Changes.
