Module:Bluesky RSS Feed

This module is a custom-designed RSS feed, designed to process a Bluesky RSS feed and output it as a template. Up to three search keywords can be input - OR rather than AND - to find posts that mention any of the keywords. A Bluesky RSS feed can be found by going to any user's page, and typing /rss at the end of the URL before hitting enter.

Usage

{{Template:Bluesky RSS Feed
|url= Bluesky RSS feed URL
|term1= Optional search term
|term2= Optional search term
|term3= Optional search term
}}

Example

{{Template:Bluesky RSS Feed
|url=https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:ve2p3lz33ivtyikqztvsgtx3/rss
|term1=#NOISZ
}}
