RSS and Atom feeds #

Omnivore supports subscribing to RSS (Really Simple Syndication) and Atom feeds.

Adding Feeds to Omnivore #

To add a feed to Omnivore navigate to the feeds page and click the Add a feed button in the top right corner and paste the URL to the feed in the Add new Feed dialog.

When a feed is first added, Omnivore will fetch the last 24hrs worth of items or at least one item if there are no items posted in the last 24hrs.

By default Omnivore will fetch the entire content of the feed item from the original URL (Fetch link: Always). You can change this and choose:

• Fetch link: Always: Always fetch the entire content of the feed item from the original URL.
• Fetch link: Never: Only see the content shared as part of the feed.
• Fetch link: When empty: Only fetch the content from the original URL if the feed item has no content.

Organizing Feeds #

Feeds will be displayed in the left menu of the Library in the subscriptions section, organized by their name. You can also view all your subscriptions on the Subscriptions page. This page has all your emails/newsletter and feed subscriptions, and can be used to unsubscribe from items.

Each feed item is tagged with the RSS label. So you can easily search for all your feed items by clicking on Feeds in the left menu under subscriptions or by doing a label search label:RSS.
