You can access this module by creating a new module of this type. Alternatively, you can open an existing module of this type. Both are done in the Module Manager, under Extensions > Module Manager.

Quick Tips[edit]

Not all menu items types actually provide for an RSS feed. This will be displayed on types of Category Blog and on Featured Articles menu types (probably others). On pages for which no feed is available this module will not display.
