Using Newsboat as Inoreader Front End

[spyt...@gmail.com]

I am on Ubuntu 16.04 and installed Newsboat 2.11 using the command:
sudo snap install newsboat

I have the following lines in my ~/snap/newsboat/156/.newsboat/urls file:
urls-source "inoreader"
inoreader-login "user...@email.com"
inoreader-password "mypassword"

Yet when I launch Newsboat, I just get the following screen:
newsboat r2.11-dirty - Your feeds (0 unread, 3 total)
   1         (0/0) urls-source
   2         (0/0) inoreader-login
   3         (0/0) inoreader-password

How can I correctly configure my urls file to use Newsboat as a front end client for Inoreader?  I am using the instructions posted here:
https://newsboat.org/releases/2.11.1/docs/newsboat.html#_inoreader

Thanks!

These lines look correct, but they should be in your config, not the
urls file. Our documentation doesn't make this absolutely obvious—sorry
about that; I'll change the wording.

Thanks for the really fast reply!  No worries on the documentation.  I was just confused because there are a few places where the documentation says something like:

you can either add URLs to the configuration file $HOME/.newsboat/urls or ...

I just ended up running the following commands:

$ cp urls config
$ rm urls
$ newsboat --config-file=config

and that seemed to do the trick!
