    HI! I am pretty new to EE, just inherited this project.

    I am struggling to get a custom field to pass through an RSS feed to a Mail Chimp Merge Tag *|FEEDITEM:IMAGE|*

    I am hoping pull an image source into a newsletter.

    This is what I am using: Any love will help.

    {exp:weblog:entries weblog="{master_weblog_name}" category="314"  limit="5" rdf="off" dynamic_start="off" disable="member_data|trackbacks"}
        <item>
          <title>{exp:xml_encode}{title}{/exp:xml_encode}</title>
          <link>{title_permalink=article}</link>
          <guid>{title_permalink=article}#When:{gmt_entry_date format="%H:%i:%sZ"}</guid>
     <description>By - {created_by_alias} 
    <![CDATA[{img-custom-field}{content}]]></description> 
     <image>
        <url>{img-custom-field}</url>
        <title>My Title</title>
        <link>{title_permalink=article}</link>
    </image>
          <dc:subject>{exp:xml_encode}{categories backspace="1"}{category_name}, {/categories}{/exp:xml_encode}</dc:subject>
          <dc:date>{gmt_entry_date format="%Y-%m-%dT%H:%i:%s%Q"}</dc:date>
        </item>
    {/exp:weblog:entries}
        </channel>
    </rss>
    {/exp:rss:feed}
