RSS feed items seems to be limited to 40?

For some reason, although I have more than 40 posts that should show up in the feed, no more than 40 appear.

Example: http://new.arresteddevops.com/index.html

Code here http://github.com/arresteddevops.com/ado-hugo

I don’t see anywhere to set this?

There’s a limit to how big RSS feeds can be. It’s not a standard size but rather a limitation of feed readers. I believe Hugo tries to follow the size limit as imposed by Google. I’m not sure Hugo goes about it the most intelligent way, but it seems to do the job.

This issue provides more detail.

It actually would be useful if there was a way to over-ride this. It destroys our podcast in iTunes as our back catalog is now limited. I know that there are the usual limitations of feed size, but podcasts are special use case.

It shouldn’t be hard to add a flag to enable larger RSS feeds. Happy to
give guidance if you want to code this and send a PR.

Cool. I’ll give it a try over the next few days and ping you for some code review. Much appreciated!
