(outdated) RSS feed updated
 

There are some major faults with the rss feed which for most newsaggregators makes it act weird.

I've re-created it and now it should work without problems, you need to patch your index.php with this new file.

Instructions in the read me.

Download the patch

look'n good!

one question. how do you add a thumnail into the feed? I dont know if all readers display images, but some of other blogs i have in my macromedia central the feed provides a thumbnail as well.

good work though! mad props to you

Hmm, the thumbnails should be in the feed unless something is funky.

Check the source to see that it's a valid url to the thumbnail, if not you might get some ideas why they don't show up.

If you add my site for example (http://www.pixelpunk.se/?x=rss) in a newsaggregator you should see thumbnails, and I don't use any customizations at all on my site, vanilla pixelpost only.

yours works fine...

a few days back i caught that the mysql had /blog2/ stored, which was the dir i originally installed at as a trial, but then switched everything over to /blog/ and though all was well when i caught that entry in the db and fixed it...

humm...im stumped, it has to be the image path though.

and is there way to edit mine so the time always says 88:88 ? i'll be in heaven if there is

i do have an error though, the dates are off. Where is it reading the dates from? its more than likely on my side.

i am also a little foggy on the rss link. Im used the the xml generated script coming up...on your website the rss link asks me to download an unrecognized file. On mine it asks to downlod the index.php, in which case after downloading it looks to be the content of the feed.

The downloading is due to the mime-handling in your browser, it's acknowledges itself as an rss+xml file and will most likely result in a download.

I see what's up with your feed.
Why I have no clue, but the site-url variable in the database is not changeable in admin but the images path and the rest is, blatant mistake.

You need to change the config-table in the database, update the siteurl so that it has http:// in front of your url.

The second thing is the time.
I'm not sure if it will qualify as a time or if it will throw errors.
Where do you want it, only in the rss-feed or for every single image?

thanks, thumbs work fine now.

every single image, the date to stay normal, and the time to say 88:88 in the feed.

on your feed, it reads

Id love to feed a different thumnail into the rss feed. Humm...

so the view has to know to copy the link, because the download does not entail details about the links feed other than the actual feed content...which isnt much help...or am i totally missing something?

The link for the patch doesn't works. :(

i've tried this, but when clicking on the RSS 2.0 link, my index.php still tries to download.

Any ideas?
