In the [front-matter](https://hexo.io/docs/front-matter.html) of your post, you can optionally add a `description`, `intro` or `excerpt` setting to write a summary for the post. Otherwise the summary will default to the excerpt or the first 140 characters of the post.
## Options
You can configure this plugin in `_config.yml`.
``` yaml
feed:
type: atom
path: atom.xml
limit: 20
hub:
content:
content_limit: 140
content_limit_delim: ' '
order_by: -date
icon: icon.png
autodiscovery: true
template:
```
- **type** - Feed type. `atom` or `rss2`. Specify `['atom', 'rss2']` to output both types. (Default: `atom`)
* Example:
``` yaml
feed:
# Generate atom feed
type: atom
# Generate both atom and rss2 feeds
type:
- atom
- rss2
path:
- atom.xml
- rss2.xml
```
- **path** - Feed path. When both types are specified, path must follow the order of type value. (Default: atom.xml/rss2.xml)
- **limit** - Maximum number of posts in the feed (Use `0` or `false` to show all posts)
- **hub** - URL of the PubSubHubbub hubs (Leave it empty if you don't use it)
- **content** - (optional) set to 'true' to include the contents of the entire post in the feed.
- **content_limit** - (optional) Default length of post content used in summary. Only used, if **content** setting is false and no custom post description present.
- **content_limit_delim** - (optional) If **content_limit** is used to shorten post contents, only cut at the last occurrence of this delimiter before reaching the character limit. Not used by default.
- **order_by** - Feed order-by. (Default: -date)
- **icon** - (optional) Custom feed icon. Defaults to a gravatar of email specified in the main config.
* Many themes already offer this feature, so you may also need to adjust the theme's config if you wish to disable it.
- **template** - Custom template path(s). This file will be used to generate feed xml file, see the default templates: [atom.xml](atom.xml) and [rss2.xml](rss2.xml).
* It is possible to specify just one custom template, even when this plugin is configured to output both feed types,
``` yaml
# (Optional) Exclude custom template from being copied into public/ folder
# Alternatively, you could also prepend an underscore to its filename, e.g. _custom.xml
