RSS SmartPin lets you connect a blog or RSS feed so that each newly published post automatically becomes a SmartPin — no need to paste each URL by hand.
Why this matters for your Pinterest strategy
The hardest part of growing on Pinterest is showing up consistently — fresh Pins are what keep your content surfacing in feeds and search over time. Connecting your blog's RSS feed turns that ongoing effort into something automatic: every new post becomes a SmartPin without you touching the scheduler.
That steady stream of new content gives Pinterest more chances to distribute your work and drive traffic back to your site, while your credits keep the pace in check. Pinterest recommends publishing fresh content regularly rather than re-pinning the same images — exactly what an automated feed makes effortless.
How to connect a feed
Go to the SmartPin Dashboard and start a New SmartPin.
Switch the toggle from Single URL to RSS feed.
Paste your blog or feed URL. You'll see a preview of recent posts.
Set your shared defaults for the feed — design tier, keywords, frequency, and the account to publish to — then connect.
Which blog platforms are supported?
RSS SmartPin works with any blog or site that publishes an RSS or Atom feed — not just WordPress. That includes platforms like Shopify, Squarespace, Blogger, and Medium.
If auto-discovery doesn't find your feed when you paste your site's address, paste the direct feed URL instead. For example, Shopify blogs publish an Atom feed at {your-store}/blogs/{blog-handle}.atom — for the default "news" blog that's yourstore.myshopify.com/blogs/news.atom (replace news with your blog's handle if it's different).
What happens after you connect
Going-forward only: connecting takes a snapshot of the posts already in the feed as a baseline and generates nothing from them. Only posts published after you connect will auto-create SmartPins, so there's no surprise credit usage.
Once a day, Tailwind checks the feed and turns each newly published post into a SmartPin and its first generation. As with manual SmartPins, your credits act as the natural throttle.
Pins created from a feed show an RSS origin badge so you can tell them apart.
Managing your feeds
Your connected feeds live on the feed manager page at /dashboard/v2/smart-pin/feeds, where you can see each feed's status and pause, resume, or delete it.
You can get there from the SmartPin Dashboard: open the New SmartPin menu and choose Manage RSS feeds. If you haven't created any SmartPins yet, the same Manage RSS feeds link appears on the get-started screen.
Already connected a feed? If you try to connect the same feed again, you'll see a note that you've already connected this feed and be taken to the feed manager — your existing feed keeps working, and new posts to it will keep becoming SmartPins.
