WordPress doesn't include featured images in RSS feeds by default. That means your automated email newsletters arrive blank, your posts look bare in Feedly and Inoreader, and Google News can't display a proper thumbnail.
RSS Chimp adds your featured images automatically — in every format every platform expects.
Install and start in 2 minutes. No account, no credit card, no expiry.
Need custom feed URLs, UTM tracking, content length control, or all WordPress image sizes? That's RSS Chimp Pro.

Save — you're done
Your RSS feed now includes featured images in every format every platform expects — email tools, feed readers, and news aggregators all pick them up automatically.
WordPress doesn't include featured images in RSS feeds by default. Every RSS-to-email newsletter you send arrives in subscribers' inboxes without any visuals — looking incomplete and unprofessional.
↓ Free DownloadStart a 14-day free trial. No credit card required.
Create additional RSS feeds at custom slugs — one for Mailchimp, one for Brevo, one for Kit. Each platform gets its own dedicated feed.
No limit on how many custom feeds you create. Different slug, different settings, different audience — fully independent from each other.
Choose from every image size registered in WordPress — large, full, WooCommerce sizes, theme-specific sizes. Free is limited to thumbnail and medium.
Choose full post or excerpt per feed independently. Set different content depths for different email platforms — without touching your default feed.
Insert any HTML before or after each post — on the default feed and all custom feeds. Sponsor messages, CTAs, ads, or any additional content.
Append UTM parameters (or any custom parameters) to all feed links automatically. Full click attribution in GA4 or Matomo for every newsletter click.
Delay when posts appear in your feed — in seconds, minutes, or hours. Prevent scrapers, allow time for corrections, control your publication window.
Feed queries are cached at the object level. Critical for high-traffic WordPress sites with large post archives — keeps feed generation fast under load.
Unlocks the 640×360px cropped image size — optimized for wide email headers and landscape feed readers. Free includes the 150×84px size only.
