Adding an RSS feed in Blogger

Hello
Sorry, have spent a long time trying to work out how to add an RSS feed to my blog (it's a Blogger blog) and have failed.  Hoping someone can give me a clue or point me in the right direction!

  1. Hello,
    I have just managed to add one using the following steps:
    I went to the site that I wanted the RSS feed from, in my case this was the British Library. Google does offer me an option to subscribe using iGoogle but it's easier to copy & paste the site URL.
    In blogger, go to Layout -> Add a Gadget -> Feed
    This will ask you for the URL of the feed, which you just copy & paste. You can then customise how many entries you see, etc.
    Let me know if this helps and indeed works!

    1. Hello
      Yes it works thanks. Have added the BBC News feed as an experiment. Am impressed by the number of gadgets it's possible to include!

    2. Just wanted to add - in case it helps someone else - that I think I had achieved adding the RSS feed, but it didn't show up on my blog because I'd used a dynamic rather than a simple template. Thanks to Deb for sorting that out for me!
