NetBox version

v4.1.11

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

We have been seeing occasional RSS timeouts depending on the user, including in our own QA. It would be nice if timeout wasn't just hardcoded to 3 seconds.

(I know this is technically against v4.1.11 but I confirmed it works the same way in the latest main.)

Use case

Let the RSS widget take a bit longer if configured to do so, so it doesn't throw an error.

Database changes

No response

External dependencies

No response
