RSS post description taking from the wrong place

[0xtiago]

Hi,
I've been facing a small issue when trying to share my content through RSS. Hinode generates the feed automatically, but there is a issue on it, instead of filling the <description> XML tag with the description: tag of .md metadata, it's taking the description from the first paragraph of the blog post.

Bellow the example using the Hinode Demo SIte:

• https://demo.gethinode.com/en/blog/image/
• https://demo.gethinode.com/en/blog/index.xml

Did somebody face the same problem and fixed it?

Thank you!

Tiago

Hugo use this for rss

https://gohugo.io/content-management/summaries/

https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/blob/master/tpl%2Ftplimpl%2Fembedded%2Ftemplates%2F_default%2Frss.xml

Only replace summary with description or
use chatgpt, Claude like this

Prompt:

Create a custom RSS layout template for Hugo by modifying the default template from the Hugo GitHub repository. Replace the summary field with the description field for each item. Ensure the new template is complete, functional, and ready for deployment. Reference: Hugo Default RSS Template. https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/blob/master/tpl%2Ftplimpl%2Fembedded%2Ftemplates%2F_default%2Frss.xml

Thanks for the suggestion @d-oit!

Currently, Hinode does not include a custom RSS template. As @d-oit suggested, you can define a custom RSS template quite easily. I'd be happy to include it in the Hinode repository if it fixes any issues. Likewise, do let me know if there's a bug in the Hinode codebase.
