Once you have added one or more feeds, you can click any one of the
feeds listed. A purple background will mark your selection, and an panel
will display underneath that lets you edit the feed's properties.
You will notice that a default title and description are pulled from
the feed itself.
Under Details you can edit the
title, description, and frequency.
The frequency is how often
to poll the feed. Most
RSS readers are encouraged to check at intervals of 30 minutes or longer.
Some sites
punish sites that check more frequently than every 30 minutes by disabling
them from reading feeds altogether.
Under Journal you can choose
a project to which to post articles
from the current feed, labels
to apply to those articles, and the user
as whom the articles should be posted.
Under journal, you can click the checkbox next to "Automatically
post articles from this feed". Until this checkbox is checked, no
articles will be posted.
Finally, you can also check the Download
Enclosures checkbox; if you do, enclosures (e.g. podcasting
audio files or Traction attachments) identified in the feed will be attached
to the Traction article that is posted.
Note: Every time you change
settings, you must click the "Modify Feed" button to save your
changes.
