## RSS Template Lookup Order
|
||
|
||
See [Template Lookup Order](/templates/lookup-order/) for the complete reference.
|
||
|
||
{{% note "Hugo Ships with an RSS Template" %}}
|
||
Hugo ships with its own [RSS 2.0 template](#the-embedded-rss-xml). The embedded template will be sufficient for most use cases.
|
||
{{% /note %}}
|
||
|
||
RSS pages are of the type `Page` and have all the [page variables](/variables/page/) available to use in the templates.
|
||
|
||
### Section RSS
|
||
|
||
A [section’s][section] RSS will be rendered at `/<SECTION>/index.xml` (e.g., http://spf13.com/project/index.xml).
|
||
|
||
Hugo provides the ability for you to define any RSS type you wish and can have different RSS files for each section and taxonomy.
|
||
|
||
## Lookup Order for RSS Templates
|
||
|
||
The table below shows the RSS template lookup order for the different page kinds. The first listing shows the lookup order when running with a theme (`demoTheme`).
|
||
|
||
{{< datatable-filtered "output" "layouts" "OutputFormat == RSS" "Example" "OutputFormat" "Suffix" "Template Lookup Order" >}}
|
||
|
||
## Configure RSS
|
||
|
||
By default, Hugo will create an unlimited number of RSS entries. You can limit the number of articles included in the built-in RSS templates by assigning a numeric value to `rssLimit:` field in your project's [`config` file][config].
|
||
|
||
The following values will also be included in the RSS output if specified in your site’s configuration:
|
||
|
||
```toml
|
||
languageCode = "en-us"
|
||
copyright = "This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License."
|
||
|
||
[author]
|
||
name = "My Name Here"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## The Embedded rss.xml
|
||
|
||
This is the default RSS template that ships with Hugo. It adheres to the [RSS 2.0 Specification][RSS 2.0].
|
||
|
||
```xml
|
||
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
|
||
<channel>
|
||
<title>{{ if eq .Title .Site.Title }}{{ .Site.Title }}{{ else }}{{ with .Title }}{{.}} on {{ end }}{{ .Site.Title }}{{ end }}</title>
|
||
<link>{{ .Permalink }}</link>
|
||
<description>Recent content {{ if ne .Title .Site.Title }}{{ with .Title }}in {{.}} {{ end }}{{ end }}on {{ .Site.Title }}</description>
|
||
<generator>Hugo -- gohugo.io</generator>{{ with .Site.LanguageCode }}
|
||
<language>{{.}}</language>{{end}}{{ with .Site.Author.email }}
|
||
<managingEditor>{{.}}{{ with $.Site.Author.name }} ({{.}}){{end}}</managingEditor>{{end}}{{ with .Site.Author.email }}
|
||
<webMaster>{{.}}{{ with $.Site.Author.name }} ({{.}}){{end}}</webMaster>{{end}}{{ with .Site.Copyright }}
|
||
<copyright>{{.}}</copyright>{{end}}{{ if not .Date.IsZero }}
|
||
<lastBuildDate>{{ .Date.Format "Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:04:05 -0700" | safeHTML }}</lastBuildDate>{{ end }}
|
||
{{ with .OutputFormats.Get "RSS" }}
|
||
{{ printf "<atom:link href=%q rel=\"self\" type=%q />" .Permalink .MediaType | safeHTML }}
|
||
{{ end }}
|
||
{{ range .Pages }}
|
||
<item>
|
||
<title>{{ .Title }}</title>
|
||
<link>{{ .Permalink }}</link>
|
||
<pubDate>{{ .Date.Format "Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:04:05 -0700" | safeHTML }}</pubDate>
|
||
{{ with .Site.Author.email }}<author>{{.}}{{ with $.Site.Author.name }} ({{.}}){{end}}</author>{{end}}
|
||
<guid>{{ .Permalink }}</guid>
|
||
<description>{{ .Summary | html }}</description>
|
||
</item>
|
||
{{ end }}
|
||
</channel>
|
||
</rss>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
{{% warning "XML Header" %}}
|
||
Hugo will automatically add the following header line to this file on render. Please do *not* include this in the template as it's not valid HTML.
|
||
```
|
||
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes" ?>
|
||
```
|
||
{{% /warning %}}
|
||
|
||
## Reference your RSS Feed in `<head>`
|
||
|
||
In your `header.html` template, you can specify your RSS feed in your `<head></head>` tag using Hugo's [Output Formats][Output Formats] like this:
|
||
|
||
```go-html-template
|
||
{{ range .AlternativeOutputFormats -}}
|
||
{{ printf `<link rel="%s" type="%s" href="%s" title="%s" />` .Rel .MediaType.Type .Permalink $.Site.Title | safeHTML }}
|
||
{{ end -}}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If you only want the RSS link, you can query the formats:
|
||
|
||
```go-html-template
|
||
{{ with .OutputFormats.Get "rss" -}}
|
||
{{ printf `<link rel="%s" type="%s" href="%s" title="%s" />` .Rel .MediaType.Type .Permalink $.Site.Title | safeHTML }}
|
||
{{ end -}}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Either of the two snippets above will generate the below `link` tag on the site homepage for RSS output:
|
||
|
||
```html
|
||
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://example.com/index.xml" title="Site Title">
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
_We are assuming `BaseURL` to be `https://example.com/` and `$.Site.Title` to be `"Site Title"` in this example._
