Map categories to RSS feeds

The table Your categories and their RSS feeds on the Auto Setup page lists every category on your site. Each category needs feeds, or must be skipped.

Automatic matching

AI AutoPost reads each category's name and slug and looks for known topic words in English, Hinglish or Hindi. Examples:

• देश, National, Desh, India → National
• खेल, Sports, Cricket → Sports
• मनोरंजन, Entertainment, Bollywood → Entertainment
• देश-विदेश → National + International

The topics it knows are National, International, Politics, Sports, Entertainment, Business, Technology, Health, Lifestyle, Religion, Career, Crime and Regional. The Matched as column shows the topic, or Not matched.

When AI AutoPost has tested feeds for a topic, it fills them in for you. These feeds work, give the full article, and their photos have no channel logos.

The table columns

• Category – name, slug and number of posts.
• Matched as – the topic and the state: Feeds added automatically, Your feeds, Map required — add feeds or Skipped.
• RSS feeds (one per line) – the feed URLs. You can edit them.
• Skip – tick to give this category no automatic posts.
• Campaign – the campaign made for this category, with Live or Draft.

The summary above the table counts how many are matched automatically, with your own feeds, need mapping and skipped.

Fix the red rows

A red row says Map required — add feeds. There are no feeds for it yet. Do one of these:

1. Paste feed URLs into its box, one per line (up to 10). Only full web addresses starting with http:// or https:// are kept.
2. Or tick Skip if this category should not get automatic posts.

The Uncategorized category is skipped automatically.

The red notice

While any category is not mapped and not skipped, admins see a red notice on the WordPress Dashboard and AI AutoPost pages, for example 2 categories have no RSS feed yet: Crime, Local. Click Map categories now to jump to the table.

Your own feeds

You can replace the suggested feeds with your own. Feeds you left unchanged stay automatic and follow future updates of the tested feed list.

Tip: Use feeds from the same language as your site, and prefer feeds whose photos have no logos. See RSS feeds and full article extraction.
