problem with rss feeds and permissions

[laurie boone]

I have a homestead website, with an rss feed to my blog (blogspot) so
that members of my website can view the content of the blog. To post
to the blog, they have to go to the blog and have a gmail address,
etc. But to just view the content, they only have to have permission
to see that page on my site.

My problem is that homestead will only allow the feed to be viewed on
my page if the blog itself is open to "anybody". I want to restrict
the blog to invited members only, but then my homestead site won't
display the rss feed. Homestead says I can get around it by inserting
html into the website.

The end goal is to allow:

1) Only those with passwords can see the feed on the blog page in my
website.
2) Only invited users can see and participate in the blog itself,
outside of the website.

Does anyone know what the html code might be to use for this?

thanks so much for any help - LB

If the blogspot blog is private it will not send out feed.

Blogspot blogs have to be public to send feeds.
