How to change RSS Settings?
Published on March 21, 2017

I'm writing both a Blog post and a Question on this topic.
I'm using GetResponse, and some images have gone missing on my emails to subscribers.
GetResponse told me to change some settings for my RSS.
I did not understand their advice to me fully, and don't know how to do it either, so I wrote in to SiteSupport. They too told me to follow GetResponse's advice!

All I know is, my RSS feed is accessible via mywebsite.com/feed. That's ALL I know! I have not touched any settings nor do I know how!
I checked my WP Dashboard, there doesn't seem to be any way to make any changes to my RSS settings?? I thought maybe All In One SEO plugin has some functionality I could meddle with, but didn't find anything there.
If anyone has any idea or advice, I really would like to hear from you. If not, my subscribers will continue getting emails without pictures! (And yes, I've set the pics for Featured Image, if that makes a difference.)

Update...
This is what GetResponse to me, please tell me if it makes any sense to any of you:
Here is a sample of how the RSS images should be added:

For the images to work please make sure that:
1) RSS has images. Images are *not* copied from blog itself, but from the
RSS.
2) images are add via *full path*, so if you access an RSS source code and
see something like this
<img src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/2013-7-16-ledzeppelin-300x144.jpg"
alt="Plagiarism

instead of
<img
src="http://dailyclassicrock.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/2013-7-16-ledzeppelin-300x144.jpg/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/2013-7-16-ledzeppelin-300x144.jpg"

3) the images are placed in the description part of the code

4) RSS contains [[rssitem_image]] code (if you fully customize the RSS) or
the image box in the drag and drop editor.
