RSS feed: only publishes article's "summary" #241

Closed allentiak closed 3 years ago

allentiak commented 3 years ago

I'm trying to publish the posts from my blog https://allentiak.github.io/ into the blog aggregator https://planet.debian.org/

However, instead of the full post, only the first paragraph is posted. It seems the RSS generator assumes the first paragraph from my post is the article summary, and only publishes that?

This is how my article looks in the aggregator:

RSS-bug--planet

Is this the normal behavior, or a bug? If this is the normal behavior, is there a specific configuration I'm missing so I can change it?

RSS link sent to the aggregator: https://allentiak.github.io/feed.xml Blog Source: https://github.com/allentiak/website-source--cryogen Blog Binary: https://github.com/allentiak/allentiak.github.io

That is working as designed. You can change what is included using <!--more-->, see http://cryogenweb.org/docs/configuration.html and blocks-per-preview.

You could workaround this limitation by setting blocks-per-preview to a really high number or by always including <!--more--> at the very end.

What would you want to include anyway? HTML? Plain text?

I see. Thanks for your answer!

That's a great hint! Thanks! I'll definitely use it, as it seems extremely flexible.

Both. I published my website into a "planet-like" aggregator website, and it expects the full article (contrary to its preview) to be displayed.

As a workaround, I used a <![CDATA[...]]> block ;-)
