Create RSS Feed

I was wondering if it is possible to create an RSS feed from the output of the XML sitemap generated by Surveyor. I'm sure it is but what I am looking for is a way to automatically generate an up to date feed from the site map. Can this be done?

Yes, there are many tutorials available on the web for delivering an XML document as an RSS Feed.

Thanks for your reply Jason. I'll look into how to do.

What I am looking for is a way to automatically generate an up to date feed from the site map created by Surveyor. I assume that the XML map created will only include the pages that were there on first run of the extension. The site I am creating is going to have special offers on a page that is data driven in a repeat region. What I want is an RSS of all offers so that the latest offers are included in the feed. Can this be done using Surveyor and other WA extensions?

No, the WebAssist extensions wont create a dynamic XML file, you will need to create this manually.
