That's why. "Originally published" appears only with crossposts from the RSS feed
Thanks
@rhymes Could you please elaborate how do you create a crosspost from an RSS feed?
Say I have an article on Medium. Where do I get the RSS feed and what do I do next?
Medium RSS are generated by adding
/feed
at the end of your medium profile URL. For example, mine ishttps://lakatos.medium.com/feed
.After you have your RSS url from Medium, put that in your DEV settings, in the "Extensions" page, under the "Publishing to DEV Community from RSS" section. dev.to/settings/extensions
After you save the feed settings, it will fetch the feed, and your articles will show up as drafts in the DEV Dashboard.
Thanks a lot! This is exactly what I was looking for!
thank you Alex!
