feed=false at post level

[davidleitch1]

Description

posts.qmd includes a "feed=partial" YAML.

However at the individual post level setting "feed=false" doesn't appear to be supported. According to Claude

"the LIstingItem interface has no feed property and the feed generation code performs no per-item filtering"

1 Is Claude correct and there is no point setting feed=false in a post. I wanted the post to stay on the website but not to be emailed out via Mailchimp.

2 If correct are there any plans to support such a feature? Claude's offered to build a post-render script but I'm not sure how that will go with Netlify and Github. One way to find out I guess.

May I say in general that other than having to rerender the entire site for every single change, I really like Quarto. I'm over 100 articles now, plus a daily blog, plus iframe links to various dashboards. Input generated via Typora (excellent image management and mark down)

Thanks to the Quarto team.

Claude has written me a script that:
"Post-render script that scans posts/*.md for feed: false in YAML front matter, then removes matching entries from _site/posts.xml"

There were failing tests before and passing tests after and quarto render now shows the hook ran successfully removing an article from the feed. So this issue is closed as far as I'm concerned, but I will formally close in 24 hours as I think its worth noting.

Are you asking we validate your LLM output?

I suggest you go to the documentation related to the feature:

• https://quarto.org/docs/websites/website-listings.html#feeds
• https://quarto.org/docs/websites/website-listings.html#including-or-excluding-items

No I am observing that feed=false is not a feature at the post level. I appreciate very much the work you do and that the Posit team does. I guess I was asking if you could confirm my observation and I was noting that the LLM has provided a work around. I see from the documentation link that I could possibly do it on the posts page by providing a YAML flag exclude: "feed=false" or something similar.

Cheers. You make me smile.

Yes, we don't have feed settings per post. This would be a feature request. There is currently no built-in way to have a post in a listing on the website, note included in the feed.

Only thing you could do right now is configuring multiple listing and having one without feed, and one with feed
