As of April 2026, Slash Comments is a WordPress feed plugin with 10 active installations and a 0/5 rating0. It has been downloaded 2.8K+ times in total. Requires WordPress false+ and PHP false+. Available on WordPress.org since 2007. Last updated 13 years ago — may have compatibility concerns. Top alternative: WebSub (FKA. PubSubHubbub).
This plugin is now obsolete on account of the functionality being included with WordPress.
This plugin adds the slash:comments tag to RSS feeds, which
tells feed readers such as Google Reader or Bloglines
how many comments there currently are on that post.
A simple plugin, really. It evolved out of a Trac ticket that didn’t get
included into the WordPress core.
