40+ Automatic feed generation is a fast first try, not the final answer for every site.
41+
42+ Move on to [ Creating Custom Feeds] ( /creating-custom-feeds ) when:
43+
44+ - the generated feed misses important fields
45+ - the wrong items are extracted
46+ - the site needs a stable, reviewable setup
47+ - you need ` browserless ` or more precise selectors to make the feed reliable

14+ ## What Success Looks Like
15+
16+ You are successful when:
17+
18+ - the feed URL opens from your own ` html2rss-web ` instance
19+ - your feed reader accepts the URL
20+ - new items appear without you editing any YAML

1626If you see a config file named ` example.com/news.yml ` , you can access it at:
1727` http://localhost:3000/example.com/news.rss `
1828
1929Just replace ` localhost:3000 ` with your html2rss-web address.

31+ ## When to Move On
32+
33+ Use a custom config when:
34+
35+ - the site you want is not in the directory
36+ - the included feed misses fields you care about
37+ - you need a more specific page, section, or output format
38+
39+ Next step: [ Create Custom Feeds] ( /creating-custom-feeds )
You can’t perform that action at this time.
