Very Nice!

No issues... Running Windows 10 Pro OS build 18362.10024 & latest Rainmeter beta

You mention "keyword filtering", but I do not see how to implement this feature.

These info are really helpful for me. Thank you.

I use this skin with this RSS url in japanese language.

https://www.gamespark.jp/rss/index.rdf

But the skin does not display anything.

I changed FEED_URL line only.

FeedMoe is a skin for RSS2.0 feeds, RSS1.0 feeds are not supported.

RSS1.0/RDF feeds are supported from 2020-08-02.

Great work bro.

Can I ask you to make one more skin to combine all RRS into one page and its will change RSS source every x (5 in example) minute?

Wonderful Skin @nek
I need some help with it.

• I'm unable to increase no. of items in feed above 15. Where can I do this?

• Some feeds aren't working. Ex: https://www.hindustantimes.com/rss/opinion/rssfeed.xml , http://static.cricinfo.com/rss/livescores.xml . What could be the likely reason?
