I’m happy to announce the release of RSSless, a new WordPress plugin. RSSless is a WordPress plugin which allows you to hide specific content in your posts from RSS readers. This is helpful for bloggers who embed videos, images, or other content which doesn’t display or embed correctly in RSS readers. Rather then having RSS readers get blank content, you can simply replace it with customizable message, such as “Please view the original article to watch this video.”

RSSless uses WordPress’ built in short code API. Simply surround the content you want to hide from RSS readers with the [rssless] [/rssless] short code tags.

I created RSSless because of a specific need I had. Since it seemed to work pretty well, I’ve decided to release it to the public.

I’ve also created a video review of RSSless which you can view here:

[rssless text="Please view the article in your web browser to see this video. (PS: This message was created by RSSless!)"]
