I found a solution to add a automatic thumbail to my RSS feed to send a daily newsletter via MailShimp. Here the code of my RSS feed: http://www.wordpress-fr.net/support/viewtopic.php?pid=158437#p158437 (2d message, even you don't speak french, you'll understand my code !)

Thanks a lot!
One suggestion: you can use parameter to create filtered RSS feeds (tags, categories, authors) using templates tags http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts.
One question: how would feed the entire post with images and HTML layout (bold, etc.)

Hi - Thanks very much for this. Really helpful. I'm wondering if you could help me please with something. It seems possible to restrict the custom feed to a single category and to make a call to a custom field ("events date") of those posts, in a way which would replace the ordinary "pub date" with, in fact, the custom field date.

Do you think this is doable? I'd gladly donate if you were able to help me out with this.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can give

There is a somewhat nicer plugin-based way to do this sort of thing.

function my_feed() {
// code to output the feed goes here
}
add_feed('feedname', 'my_feed');

Now you can call that feed up on your site using http://example.com/feed/feedname. That's all there is to it.

Is there a way to limit the feed to ONLY showing 100 words, not characters but words?

I would love to be able to do that.

Hey, dig this post a bunch, but out of curiosity, how would your recommend best handling a RSS feed that uses a lot of custom fields? I have a solution that works (mostly) based on a hacked WordPress plugin due to the fact that RSS support for custom fields isn't right out of the box for RSS feeds, but it's not perfect and once in a while the fields show up in the wrong order:

http://feeds.feedburner.com/shortformblog/feed

This method would be very useful for me because I could split the feeds up by sections or have a feed specifically for posts I'd like to feature on Twitter or Facebook.

If you have any thoughts, I'd love to hear them.

Please bear with me...I have some questions that may seem silly to you...
1. Can I use this as a newsletter? I want something to go out to feedburner subscribers but don't want to post it.
2. "open the secret URL in your browser and voila: your custom feed is ready"
What does that mean? When I open the URL, who does the feed go to? Does this mean whatever I post in this template will go the feedburner subscribers?
