Channel Info & Smarter Images – A Powerful Step Forward
This release introduces a great new feature for displaying channel information and significantly improves how images are handled, making the card more powerful and easier to configure.
Highlights
-
Show Channel Information
You can now display the feed's channel title, description, and image directly on the card!
Just enable the newshow_channel_infooption.Perfect for when you're displaying multiple feeds and want to see at a glance where the news is coming from.
Works seamlessly with my feedparser integration.
Breaking Changes
- Simplified Image Handling
- The
strip_summary_imagesoption has been removed in favor of a smarter, automatic approach. - The card now only uses the dedicated
imageproperty from a feed item to display a "hero" image. - If a hero image is shown, any images inside the summary are automatically hidden (no more duplicates!).
- If a feed item has no image property, images inside the summary will be displayed as usual.
- The
Other Improvements
- Refactored internal logic for card size calculation → more reliable rendering.
- Improved visual editor → keeps your YAML config cleaner by not saving default values.
