RSS Dashboard 2.6.0

RSS Dashboard 2.6.0 makes large feed libraries easier to manage and more
responsive. It adds clearer refresh controls, a more efficient podcast
playlist, and optional local image caching, alongside a collection of reader,
dashboard, and feed-management improvements.


Refresh controls and reliability

  • Set automatic refresh behavior for individual feeds, including using the
    global schedule, turning refresh off, or choosing a custom interval.
  • See refresh-status timestamps and accessible refresh details for feeds and
    folders.
  • Retry failed feeds directly from the sidebar with Shift+click or the All
    feeds context menu.
  • Stop an in-progress global refresh, including import and Discover fetch work;
    completed results are retained and cancelled requests do not advance refresh
    timestamps.
  • New installations now start with global automatic refresh turned off.

Faster media and podcast browsing

  • Enable optional local caching for Dashboard Card and Feed preview images,
    with configurable storage limits, cache management controls, and remote-image
    fallback.
  • Browse large podcast feeds through a five-episode window centered on the
    active episode, with paging controls and a return-to-current action.
  • Control Dashboard Card and Feed previews independently: choose whether to
    show covers and summaries without unnecessary preview-image loading.

Reading and saving improvements

  • RSS and Atom feeds can now be decoded as Windows-1251 automatically or per
    feed from Add/Edit feed > Feed options > Feed Encoding.
  • Save articles using a selected saved template when writing to a custom folder;
    newly created templates are immediately available.
  • Formulas in Reader content now select and copy as their source while retaining
    their rendered appearance. WordPress LaTeX formula images render as native,
    theme-aware math and save as Obsidian-compatible math delimiters.
  • Dashboard pagination controls can be placed at the top or bottom of the page.

Notable fixes

  • Mark all read/unread now updates and persists the articles in the active
    filtered Dashboard view.
  • Fixed long article titles causing Windows save failures.
  • Fixed feed-fetch cancellation for OPML imports and Discover adds.
  • Fixed sidebar icon labels, refresh-detail popups, and several mobile sidebar
    and navigation details.
  • Fixed cross-device settings refreshes, storage-bundle imports using
    vault-shards-v2, and per-feed refresh schedule behavior.

Maintenance and compliance

This release also strengthens the plugin's Community Plugin compliance
baseline through updated lint rules, popout-safe DOM helpers, a zero-
!important CSS policy, and supporting test coverage.
