    News crawl shows NO ITEMS IN RANGE: your age filter is excluding
    everything currently available. Open News Feed Settings (the gear icon
    on the crawl bar, or Settings, News Feeds) and widen the “Show items
    from last” window. Weather, geology, and some lower-frequency feeds
    (ARRL, RSGB) sometimes need a 12-24 hour window to reliably show
    anything.

    Custom feed added but not showing in the crawl: check that same age
    gate first – the feed may genuinely have items, just older than your
    current window. Also confirm the feed’s toggle is switched on in the
    picker. The refresh button on that feed’s row forces an immediate
    re-fetch if you want to check right away.

    Custom feed fails Verify: the URL probably isn’t returning valid RSS
    or ATOM content, might require authentication, or could just be
    temporarily down. Try opening the URL directly in a browser to check.
    If the site doesn’t have a native feed at all, a tool like rss.app can
    generate one from most pages.
