I am sorry if this was answered in another post. I understand that using a ranged weapon allows only one attack. But why is there a feat that allows another attack with a crossbow but not a feat that allows it for a long/short bow?

Only crossbows are limited to making one attack a turn, longbows and shortbows are not. It is the loading property that limits attacks per turn not the ammunition property.

As already mentioned, a character is ordinarily allowed to make as many missile attacks as they are allowed to make attacks in general. This is the case as long as the character has a piece of ammunition for every attack and another rule doesn't limit the number of attacks (such as the Loading property).
