 By default, Buttondown returns the 30 most recent emails in your feed. If you'd like to change this, you can append a `?count=50` query parameter to the end of the URL to change the number of emails returned.
 
+An example of this `?count=50` URL looks like this.

 At the moment, you can choose from three different 'cadences' for your RSS automation:
 
-- You can have trigger a new email every time a new item is published in your RSS feed. (Buttondown checks your RSS feed every thirty minutes, so it's not quite instantaneous.)
+- You can trigger a new email, drafting or immediate sending, every time a new item is published in your RSS feed. (Buttondown checks your RSS feed every thirty minutes, so it's not quite instantaneous.)
 - You can trigger a new email every week, on a day and time of your choosing.
 - You can trigger a new email every month, on a day and time of your choosing.
 
 (Note that for the weekly and monthly cadences, Buttondown's automation will only trigger if there's a new item in your RSS feed.)

-- You can have Buttondown create a new draft email every time a new item is published in your RSS feed.
+- You can have Buttondown send a new email. This means that, for example, every time a new item is published in your RSS feed, Buttondown instantly sends that email. For the digest cadences, it will send the configured digest on the day and time you specify.
+- You can have Buttondown create a new draft email every time a new item is published in your RSS feed. For the digest cadences, it will create a draft for you to send later  on the day and time you specify
 
 The difference between these two behaviors is that the first will send the email immediately, while the second will create a draft email that you can edit before sending.

+Things happen; you might have to backfill a number of blog posts and you want to exclude them from your automation or you might want to pause your newsletter for a few weeks while you're tweaking the feed. Buttondown supports several ways to manage your RSS automation:
 
 1. You can _pause_ the automation, which will prevent any new emails from being sent or drafts from being created. Any items that are detected in your RSS feed will be ignored, and will _not_ be automatically queued up for sending or drafting when you unpause the automation.
 2. You can _skip_ individual items in your RSS feed. This will prevent the automation from sending or drafting an email for that item, but will not prevent it from sending or drafting emails for any other items in the feed. This concept only applies if you've set up your automation on a weekly or monthly cadence.

+RSS is a fairly open-ended spec, and there are a number of implementations that are all correct in different ways. Below is a list of the important fields that Buttondown tries to extract and how it extracts them, in order:
 
 1. `title`: Buttondown looks for the `title` field in the RSS item. If it's not found, it looks for the `dc:title` field. If that's not found, it looks for the `description` field.
 2. `content`: Buttondown looks for the `content:encoded` field in the RSS item. If it's not found, it looks for the `summary_detail` field.
