What if you have a bunch of straming feeds and you want to manage them all through Feedoor? yet it sounds impossible!

Well, feedoor has the solution for this task too

Dynamic Feeds Solution

We will take BBC news feed as an example

BBC distributes tens of news feeds

Here is a snap shot of some of these feeds BBC have

Check 2 feeds links and spot the variables "where exactly the links have been changed".

We notice that "Africa" and "Americas" is the only variable so we replace that variable with [[0]] tag

The feed we are going to add to feedoor will become like this

http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_world_edition/[[0]]/rss.xml

Now go to your Feedoor account and instead of adding a normal feed select "Dynamic Feed" from the drop down menu and add the dynamic link

Click Submit then continue as adding a normal feed to feedoor, let's say you chose "news" as your feed sub domain.

Now all BBC feeds will be managed with Feedoor with no more feeds to be added to your feedoor account

Try to call any of the BBC feeds by going to

http://news.feedoor.com/feed/[[this should be placed with the variable word]]

http://news.feedoor.com/feed/africa

http://news.feedoor.com/feed/americas

Now What if there is more than one variable with your dynamic feed?

Simply increase merge number by one with every new tag

[[0], then [[1]] then [[2]] and so on

let's say BBC link has two variables not one

http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_world_edition/africa/rss.xml

newsonline_world_edition and africa

Then the dynamic feed will be

http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/[[0]]/[[1]]/rss.xml

And your feedoor link will be something like this

http://news.feedoor.com/feed/newsonline_world_edition/africa

* Dynamic Feeds works with "Feed Branding" feature too
