How to

Editing

Inline images:

• How do I add inline images?
  • This neglects to explain that the camera icon only appears on blank lines. To add an image to an existing text post, just add a blank line where you want the image to go. (This being the case, it may not be possible to wrap text around images, though I haven't tried actually inserting an image yet.)

Feeds

Apparently Patreon does not provide an RSS feed of posts, though it does provide one for audio content (but only for patrons).

There is code to overcome this, via an unofficial API:

• splitbrain/patreon-rss or possibly daemionfox/patreon-feed ("proper[ly] composerized")
