To add post content to the RSS feed in Webflow and send it to your ConvertKit newsletter list, you can follow these steps:

Create an RSS feed collection:

In your Webflow project, go to the Collections section.
Click on the "+" button to create a new Collection.
Give your Collection a name, such as "Blog" or "News".
Customize your Collection's settings, fields, and design as required.
Make sure to include a field for the post content that you want to send to ConvertKit.

Add posts to the RSS feed:

In your Collection, click on the "+" button to create a new item of your collection.
Enter the post content and fill in any other relevant fields.
Repeat this step for each post you want to include in the RSS feed.

Enable the RSS feed:

In your Webflow project, go to the Collection settings.
Click on the "Enable RSS feed" checkbox.
Customize the RSS feed settings, including the number of items to show and the sort order.

Set up the ConvertKit integration:

In your Webflow project, go to the Integrations section.
Click on the "Connect to a service" button and select ConvertKit from the list.
Follow the instructions to authorize Webflow to access your ConvertKit account.
Map the fields from your RSS feed to ConvertKit's fields, including the post content field.

Test and publish:

After setting up the integration, click on the "Send a test form submission" button to make sure everything is working correctly.
Once you've confirmed that the content is being sent to ConvertKit, you can publish your website to make the RSS feed and the integration live.

By following these steps, you'll be able to add post content to the RSS feed in Webflow and have it sent to your ConvertKit newsletter list. This will allow you to automatically share your content with your subscribers and keep them updated on the latest posts from your website.
