rel-feed

 rel-feed  was a proposal for linking to multiple (potentially alternative) h-feeds from a site's homepage, which was adding extra work & complexity to existing feed discovery methods, and has been superceded with re-using rel-alternate with  to link to h-feed files.

See h-feed: rel alternate type mf2 html

The rest of this page is very much out of date and needs updating.

Why
You should link to your separate feeds with rel=feed from your home page to:
 * Enable readers to automatically find your h-feeds (h-feed autodiscovery)

How
Add the attribute  (or append " feed" on an existing rel attribute) on links from your homepage to your separate h-feed pages.



How on WordPress without any coding
If you have a menu link to your main feed, you can add feed to the Link Relationship(XFN) field in the WordPress menu editor under 'Appearance' in the WordPress admin dashboard.

's Indieweb 2016 theme automatically adds a rel-feed to your posts page in if you do not have a feed on your homepage.
