Hi there,

My blog code is here: [~kmdodrill/blog - sourcehut git](https://git.sr.ht/~kmdodrill/blog)

I recently switched from using a theme to rolling one from someone elses blog that uses Hugo. I had rss.xml but decided to clean up files and leave the default as atom.xml. Either way, I can’t seem to get zola to generate the feed. I have all my posts in content/blog and I don’t have taxonomies or tags. I have generate\_feed = true in my config.toml. Anyone know why this might happen?

Thank you

your `generate_feed = true` inside markdown section, just move it above [markdown]

Thank you! I figured it was something simple that I just wasn’t seeing…works great now 🙂
