Hi,

Perhaps you could use something like the following in config.php?
Untested (http://pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/WebFeeds has some explanations):


$FeedFmt['rss']['feed']['title']='WebFeedFromPageVars';
$FeedFmt['rss']['feed']['link']='WebFeedFromPageVars';
$FeedFmt['rss']['feed']['description']='WebFeedFromPageVars';

function WebFeedFromPageVars($pagename, &$page, $tag) {
  return "<$tag>".PageTextVar($pagename, $tag)."</$tag>";
}
