I need to be able to override the automatically generated feed URL, so that people can confidently subscribe to the feed for the blog. The goal is to get the docs to settle down, so we can get into some kind of a routine.

So the URL for the feed is going to be this: http://fargo.io/blog/rss.xml

With the #opmlFeed directive I can tell the CMS to use this URL instead of the one it generates pointing into my dropbox folder.

Choose the Settings command in the System menu at the right end of the menu bar. Click on the CMS tab. There's a new checkbox that allows you to enable the "watched" folder.

Screen shot.

In a few seconds a new folder is automatically created in your Small Picture folder called watched.

Copy an image into the folder. Wait a few seconds (as many as 11 or 12).

A dialog should appear with the URL of the image.

You can use it anywhere you would use the URL of an image. It doesn't even have to be in Fargo.

People who use the OPML Editor for content management will recognize the feature.

They don't have to be images. They could be MP3s, PDFs, whatever.
