RSS feed does not display any images

Open javi-1111 opened this issue 8 months ago • 1 comments

When accessing the RSS feed via the /rss endpoint and viewing it with a standard RSS reader, the feed loads correctly, but no images are displayed.

Steps to reproduce the behavior: Open an RSS reader (e.g., Inoreader, Feedly, Thunderbird, etc.). Add the feed URL pointing to /rss. Check the feed entries. Observe that no images are shown in any of the items.

Images from posts (e.g., thumbnails or embedded images) should appear in the RSS feed entries, allowing for a richer reading experience.

The feed loads and parses fine, but lacks media content. It would be helpful to include images so readers can see post visuals directly from the feed.

As mentioned in the linked issue in our repo (in Spanish, so I will translate for anyone who wants to take over the task), there may be at least 2 options to add into the rss>channel>item>description:

  • a simple <img> tag
  • a <media:thumbnail> tag https://www.rssboard.org/media-rss#media-thumbnails

We can take the image from the article thumbnail, no need to reinvent the wheel here.
