My browser (Firefox) doesn't seem to be that smart. Where should it appear? In the HTML code, I see the two links:

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Kieker &raquo; Feed" href="http://kieker-monitoring.net/feed/" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Kieker &raquo; Comments Feed" href="http://kieker-monitoring.net/comments/feed/" />

However, in the browser, I can't see the effect.

I was thinking about placing the RSS logo, e.g., next to the news box's headline on the start page, on the News overview page, and on the individual post.

Where on the page do you want to include this one?
If you name a position, I can include it easily.

Next to the "News" headline

The link is now present, but not exactly as envisioned.
Is this solution ok? => close?

Looks good, thanks.

Can the feed URL be changed to kieker-monitoring.net/news/feed/ (currently only /feed/) --- maybe including a permanently moved for the old URL in case people subscribed already.

Both always exist:

• /feed/ is all posts (regardless of category)
• /news/feed/ is all post in news category (our only category)

So in our case, both are the same and we could link to either one, but we can not (easily) replace one with the other.

I see, makes sense. I would prefer /news/feed/ to be linked in the right menu because it is also a subitem of news there and people using that link probably expect the feed for this category. But either way is fine for me.
