Testing Out the “No Feed” Plugin
Have you ever wanted to stop the feeds on your blog?
For example, if you wanted to import a number of static HTML articles that you had elsewhere on your site and post them into your blog without sending an email to all of your Feedburner email subscribers each time you posted one of those articles – you might want to stop the feed… temporarily of course.
One way to do that is to remove the following files from your WordPress installation.
- wp-atom.php
- wp-comments2rss.php
- wp-feed.php
- wp-links-opml.php
- wp-rdf.php
- wp-rss.php
- wp-rss2.php
- feed-rss2-comments.php
The other way – apparently – is to us the No Feed plugin by Jason.
Let’s see if it works… 
Follow up… Well, sure enough the No Feed broke the feed and gave an error message when I clicked my Feedburner link.
On the other hand, when I deactivated the plugin, this post showed up immediately under Current Feed Content at Feedburner, so it remains to be seen whether Feedburner will send that email out… but I suspect they will.
Any other ideas?

Clever. Thanks for checking it out. Let me know how it works for you!
You could also change the publish date of your “new” posts to match the original date of the static HTML articles.
Excellent find!
Even if it did send this one, that’s way better then the countless others it didn’t.
Certainly this one is pearl from sea.
But why anybody would like to stop feed. If they are posting at there than certainly they want to show it to others and want to read this one.
This one is nice trick but I want to know why they would like to cancel this one.
Hi Ros,
This comment is in a totally wrong location and I apologize. I have been clicking around your website and can’t find what I’m looking for. A page about a plugin seemed to be the closest fit I can find for my question.
I have been a reader of your blog for years. I come to your site often and refer back to your posts.
I think I remember that you gave instructions about a wordpress plugin that creates a contact form. I thought I remember that you created a page called “contact me” and you had to fool around with the css a bit but then you had a contact form.
Am I crazy? I can’t find this post and I see that you don’t have a “contact me” page!
If this is true, can you direct me to your page?
Thanks for your help,
Julia
