 RSS feeds for the blog are provided under the `/rss` URL.
 
 By default, the whole HTML-rendered content of an article is returned under `rss.channel.item.description`.
+
 If you only want to include the short description of an article in the feed, use `/rss?short` instead.
+
+If you want the short feed (i.e. without the fully rendered article as a
+description) to be always returned, then you can specify `short_feed=true` in
+your configuration.
