@Teemberland great spot ! You should create a PR for that so they can include it in the official repository.
Just be aware that any subsequent releases will overwrite your fix without the PR.
I need to set up a new user to post the fed in automated content, is the best way to achieve this to add a new @domain.com email and use that, or is a dummy one usable if auto verified?
@jac A dummy one is fine - it doesn’t necessarily need to use the same domain as your site - as long as it’s approved, as you mention
@phenomlab many thanks Mark .
