 * Hi,
 * Under feed to post settings, I have the source checked and the post shows the
   source but is not the name I gave to the feed (in the feed panel). Instead it’s
   the long url of the link to the post.
 * So for example, if i pull from cnn.com and I have the feed name as cnn it shows
   on the bottom.
 * source: [http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/29/politics/fbi-director-nominee/index.html?hpt=hp_t2](http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/29/politics/fbi-director-nominee/index.html?hpt=hp_t2)
 * But I’d like it to say….
 * source: cnn.com
 * Where do I change this setting?

 * Call the name of the feed CNN.com and choose the option in the feed to post settings
   to use the name, not the link, for the source.
