Title |
The phrase which will be displayed in the feed (column) header and in the panel containing the columns tree. Usually the title is the name of the website which originates the feed, to which may be attached a description of its content. |
URL |
This is the url (web address) of the RSS feed. It usually ends in "xml". For example http://www.site.com/RssFeed.xml . If a site provides a RSS feed it usually dispalys on the home page a little button colored orange that has "XML" written on it with white letters. We can copy the address of the feed if we right-click the little button and then cclick on the option "Copy Shortcut"). We can use the copied address to subscribe to the feed from inside Abilon. Other sites use little buttons that have written on them "RSS", "Flux RSS", "RDF", "Atom", etc. |
Use Title from RSS file |
A feed has a title chosen by its author and usually it contains the name of the website and also a description of the content present on the site (for example: HNR- Hardware News and Reviews). But sometimes this description is too long and in this case the user can modify the title so as to keep the name of the site, but delete the long description. If this situation the option "Use title from RSS" must be unchecked and the title modified to suit the preferences of the user. If this option is checked the full title will be displayed. |
