Flock's Feeds Sidebar updates every hour, but we also provide an advanced option to change the frequency of these updates.

Please Note: The more often your feeds update, the slower experience you have with Flock will be. Adjust this with caution.

1. Type "about:config" (minus the quotation marks) into the addressbar and hit enter
2. Click the "I'll be careful, I promise!" button (but do be careful here, as there are powerful options contained in this section)
3. Paste "flock.poller.defaultRefreshInterval;3600" into the Filter field
4. Double-click the result to edit the RefreshInterval
5. Change the number in the dialog. This number represents seconds (3600 seconds = 1 hour).
6. Close the window

To export your feeds from Flock as an opml file:

1. Open the Feeds sidebar
2. Open the Feed Options menu
3. Choose "Export Feeds"
4. Choose a name and location for your .opml file
5. Click Save

Every hour Flock will check feeds for updates. You can refresh individual feeds by using the Reload button while viewing a feed.
