Views #
FreshRSS has three primary viewing modes: Normal, Global, and Reader view.
Normal view #
Normal view will allow you to view articles in a compressed view. They can be separated by category or individual feed, or viewed in the “main stream” containing all feeds. Clicking a feed in the sidebar (mobile users will need to click the folder icon to open it) will open that feed’s view.
Article List #
By default, the normal view includes six items per article. From left to right:
- Read status: An envelope icon to show if the article has been read or not. Closed envelopes are unread, open envelopes are read. Clicking on the icon will toggle the read status.
- Favourite status: A star icon to show if the article has been favourited or not. Filled stars are favourited, empty stars are not. Clicking on the icon will toggle the favourite status.
- Feed name: The name of the feed that the article is from. Clicking the feed name will move to that feed’s view in normal view.
- Article title: The title of the article. Clicking will open the article for viewing within FreshRSS.
- Article date/time: The time the article was posted.
- Link to original article: A globe icon that can be clicked to go to the article on the original website.
Normal View Sidebar #
Clicking the gear icon next to an individual feed will display additional options for that feed.
- Filter: Run the defined filter to mark articles as read
- Statistics: View statistics about the feed
- See website: Open the feed’s website in another tab
- Manage: Configure the feed
- Actualize: Force-update the feed
- Mark as read: Mark all items in the feed as read
Global view #
Global view allows quick views of feed’s statuses at once. Feeds and categories are shown with the number of unread articles next to them. Clicking a feed’s name will open it in a view similar to normal view.
Reader view #
Reader view will display a feed will all articles already open for reading. Feeds can be switched by clicking the folder icon at the top to bring up the category/feed sidebar.
