How can PHP be used to filter news entries by category when generating an RSS feed?

To filter news entries by category when generating an RSS feed using PHP, you can use a conditional statement to check the category of each news entry before including it in the feed. This can be done by assigning categories to each news entry and then only including entries with the desired category in the feed. 

// Assuming $newsEntries is an array of news entries with categories

// Define the desired category to filter by
$desiredCategory = 'Technology';

// Loop through each news entry and only include entries with the desired category in the RSS feed
foreach ($newsEntries as $entry) {
    if ($entry['category'] == $desiredCategory) {
        // Output the news entry in the RSS feed
        echo '<item>';
        echo '<title>' . $entry['title'] . '</title>';
        echo '<description>' . $entry['description'] . '</description>';
        echo '</item>';
    }
}
