RSS feeds
An RSS feed is an address provided by a website, automatically listing its latest publications. This module lets DraftBot watch such a feed and announce every new publication on your server.
There are three ways of finding a site's RSS feed:
- Spot the RSS icon
Some sites mark their feed with this logo
, usually placed in the header, the footer, the sidebar or the menu. Click it to open the feed. - Guess the feed address
If no icon is visible, try adding one of these suffixes to the site's address — they are the most common ones:/feed//rss//rss.xml
For example, for the siteexample.com, tryexample.com/feed/. - Generate the feed with rss.app
For sites that offer no feed at all, go to rss.app. Paste the site's address in the generator, click "generate", and you will get a usable feed.
To avoid spam, a 10-minute delay applies between two announcements.
You can customize the announcement message with several variables:
| Variable | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
{feed.name} | Feed name | DraftBot Blog |
{feed.url} | Feed link | https://draftbot.fr/... |
In addition to the other variables already available globally!
Configuration
You can enable every type of social notification separately.
On this page, you can enable and disable social notifications as you like. There are two types:
- The tabs, which can be configured for several channels or forums.
- The modules, which enable notifications requiring very little configuration.
Additional information
You will find the maximum number of announcements per platform in the DraftBot Premium comparison, in the Social notifications part.
