We created this is a guide on how to work with RSS in JReviews so that all of the infromation is in one place. Here we choose to focus on the different feeds rather than how to set them up in JReviews. For this task check the JReviews docs.

A few notes about JReviews RSS Feeds
In JReviews > Configuration > RSS you have the ability to turn on or off the feeds. All this does is publish or unpublish the RSS feed icons.
Default JReviews Feeds:
Listing RSS Feeds
All Product Listings
domain.com/index.php?option=com_jreviews&url=categories/latest&action=xml
All Product Listings from a single JReviews directory
Take the above URL and add &dir=X where X is the directory id. This will limit the results to a specific JReviews Directory. Example:
domain.com/index.php?option=com_jreviews&url=categories/latest&dir=1&action=xml
Note: Not entirely sure that this will work
Reviews RSS Feeds
Editor & User Reviews from all listings
domain.com/index.php?option=com_jreviews&url=feeds/reviews
Editor & User Reviews from a single listing
Results or Click2Search Page RSS Feeds
You can change any results or click2search page to a rss feed by appending the /action:xml/ parameter to the url:
This is a click2search field rss:
mydomain.com/XXXX/tag/category/YYY/action:xml/
And a similar results page with two custom fields:
www.mydomain.com/XXXX/search-results_m5/query:all/jr_category:YYY/jr_abcdef:All/order:rdate/action:xml/
How to Edit how the RSS Feed Displays
It seems that the Reviews RSS feed does not have any formatting so it might be nice to add the < p > tags and other html elements into the feed.
