Context

What this means for Medium

Medium inherited its RSS conventions from its earliest blogging-platform roots and has kept them mostly intact through every redesign. The rule is consistent: insert /feed between medium.com and whatever path follows. This works for tag pages, publications, user profiles, and publication-specific tag pages.

Feed URL format
https://medium.com/feed/[path]
Working example
https://medium.com/feed/tag/wordpress

Supported patterns

  • Tag pages (/tag/[name])
  • User profiles (/@username)
  • Publications (/publicationname)
  • Custom-domain publications (feeds still served from medium.com/feed/[publication])

Limitations

  • Feed content and media fields vary by article
  • Member-only posts are preview-only in the feed
  • Custom-domain publications sometimes proxy feeds and can drift from medium.com behavior
  • Tag feeds include promoted and low-quality posts without filtering

Gotchas

Common mistakes

  • Watch for this: Omitting the @ in profile feeds. /feed/username (no @) returns empty. The correct form is /feed/@username
  • Watch for this: Trying /feed at the end of the path instead of the start (Medium only accepts the prefix form)
  • Watch for this: Treating member-only posts as full-text, they are always truncated in RSS

FAQ

Medium RSS questions

How do I get a Medium tag RSS feed?

Add /feed before the tag path, for example https://medium.com/feed/tag/wordpress. The rule applies to every Medium URL structure: prefix /feed after medium.com.

What is the RSS feed for a Medium profile?

Use https://medium.com/feed/@username. The @ symbol must be included. It identifies the URL as a user profile rather than a publication slug.

How do I find the RSS feed for a Medium publication?

Use https://medium.com/feed/[publication-slug]. Custom-domain publications still proxy back to medium.com, so the feed URL uses medium.com even when the browser URL does not.

Are Medium feeds full text?

Public posts are usually full text. Member-only posts are truncated to a short preview in the feed, matching Medium's paywall behavior on the site.

Can Medium feeds be imported into WordPress?

Yes. Use the Medium feed URL as a source in Aggregator. Pair broad tag feeds with keyword filters to exclude off-topic posts.
