News Feed Configuration

The News Feed is a panel on the main Horizon page which displays information from the OpenNMS website RSS news feed. This can help keep users informed of the latest OpenNMS and Horizon news.

The Horizon server makes REST queries to the OpenNMS RSS feed to get the latest feed data.

This feature is enabled by default, but can be disabled using the configuration below. Disabling will remove the panel from the front page and the server will no longer make queries for the feed.

If you would like to change the feed settings, you can set the following options in ${OPENNMS_HOME}/etc/opennms.properties.d/feed.properties.

Property Description Default Value

opennms.newsFeedPanel.show

Whether to show the News Feed panel. Set to false to disable.

true

opennms.newsFeedPanel.url

The URL of the RSS feed used to get the feed data. This will default to the OpenNMS feed if omitted.
