Feed Skip Hours

Similar to the Feed Skip Days setting, certain hours can be skipped by aggregators by inserting values into the Feed Skip Hours field, separated by commas.

Hours are zero based, meaning that no AM or PM is used and no minute values are accepted. For example, 0 is midnight and 23 is 11 PM. This setting is ignored by Atom feeds.

Feed Language

The language of the feed can be set by choosing a language from the Feed Language menu.
