RSS Feeds

ChurchSquare is replacing it current news feeds (AP News Briefs and Agape News) with a new RSS feed component. There are literally thousands of RSS feeds available at no cost and many excellent sources of Christian news. This switch is designed to offer ChurchSquare users a better opportunity to tailor the information feeds to their specific needs.

To use the new RSS component you edit a page, click on the Add button and select RSS from the Interactive category. Then copy and paste the URL for the RSS XML page into the component. Add a new RSS component for each feed you want on your site.

TIP - Place the RSS feed inside a group box (Add>Design Accents>Group Box) and set the group box height equal to about 300. RSS feeds are quite long and the user will have to scroll far down the page to see what feeds you have available. The group box will allow the user to scroll through the content using the box right slider.

Listed below are selected RSS feeds. These providers do not require you to register for the feed so you can just copy the link and paste it into your RSS component. Many do require that you agree to terms, typically you must agree not to alter the feed and not to use the feeds for commercial purposes. Please refer to the provider's website for details.
