- In the WordPress administration area, begin the configuration by clicking Options and then the FeedBurner FeedSmith sub-option.
- Follow the links to create your FeedBurner feeds, or if they already exist, simply fill in their URLs in the boxes provided.Note: If you currently use the old, 2005-vintage version of the Ordered List FeedBurner plugin that generates a FeedBurner-specific URL (an example: www.yoursite.com/feedburner_838196/), that URL is no longer available or necessary. You will have to reset your FeedBurner feed’s Original Feed address to now use your standard blog feed address. Additionally, you should examine any .htaccess files that control access to your WordPress installation’s content and remove any existing references that forward or redirect your feeds, as these references will no longer be necessary.
- Verify your URLs in the text entry fields, and click Save.
Now all of your WordPress feed traffic should be redirected to FeedBurner. How about you? Are you using this plugin too?
