Set up a feed

1. Open Feeds and turn on the switch at the top right of the panel. It saves at once. Subscriptions only post while it is on.
2. Click Add Subscription. The Add Subscription wizard opens.

Step 1: Choose Platform

Click the platform you want. A platform with a lock icon is not available on this bot, and the reason is shown under it (it needs setup by the bot's operator).

Step 2: Configure Source

1. Type the source into Source. The hint next to the label says what the platform takes: a channel URL, @handle or channel ID for YouTube, r/subreddit for Reddit, a feed URL for RSS, and so on.
2. As you type, suggestions appear: sources already followed on this bot (18+ sources are never suggested) and, for YouTube, Twitch, Bluesky and Podcast, search results. Picking one loads its preview. Otherwise press Enter or click Preview.
3. For Twitch and Kick, choose the Notification type: Going Live or New Clips.
4. Check the preview: the source's name and avatar, its Latest post and its Available fields, with Source found.
5. Click Next (it stays disabled until a preview has loaded).

Step 3: Delivery

1. Post Template: keep the platform's default (for example Default (@feeds.youtube)), pick one of your saved templates, or click Create template to design one in the Message Builder. The wizard comes back with your choices kept. See Templates.
2. Channel: where posts go. For an 18+ source, only age-restricted channels are listed.
3. Post Mode: Bot or Webhook. See Webhook mode.
4. Click Create Subscription.

The subscription is created enabled, and the bot posts the source's latest item right away so you can see how it looks. A Going Live subscription posts only if the channel is live at that moment; otherwise the next stream is announced when it starts.
