Bookmarking RSS pages

If you read RSS (news article) pages, you may want to bookmark your favorite ones. If you’ve already bookmarked the RSS page’s source—for example, if you’ve bookmarked the New York Times’ website—you’ll need a separate bookmark for the RSS view.

To bookmark RSS pages:

Step 1

Go to the RSS view for the webpage you want to search. For example, go to www.nytimes.com and click the RSS icon at the right end of the address bar.

If there’s more than one RSS view for a webpage, clicking the RSS icon produces a list of available RSS pages. Choose the one you want.

Step 2

Click the Add (+) button.

Step 3

Type a name for the bookmark. For example, “Latest NYT Articles.”

Step 4

Specify where you want to keep the bookmark. You can add it to the bookmarks bar, the Bookmarks menu, or to one of the collections of bookmarks, such as News or Travel.

Step 5

Click Add.

When you click the bookmark, Safari displays the latest articles.

If you keep the bookmark in the bookmarks bar or Bookmarks menu, Safari can check periodically to see if there are any new articles and then display the number of new articles next to the bookmark’s name.
