RSS feed index.xml files in my category and tag directories

support

I’m getting RSS feed index.xml files in my category and tag directories. They are not in posts or pages directories. I’m not using a custom feed.xml template, just whatever is built into Hugo. There are no RSS params in config.toml. The main RSS feed shows posts, but not tag or category archives, which is what I want.

But why all the index.xml files?

This is an index.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?><rss version="2.0" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">

I have in config.toml:

[outputs]taxonomy = [“HTML”]

You need to do that for term pages too.
