craigos Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 The RSS is a godsend to me - mine stopped working so came to the new forum to see if the url had changed but cant even find it. Please tell me the forum is still RSS enabled!!!!
craigos Posted November 21, 2008 Author Posted November 21, 2008 ok found the icon - but the feed is empty --- any ETA on getting the feed populated. I appreciate all the work on the new format - but gotta tell you, its taking a lot more effort to navigate the pages than before. I will give it time to see if it grows on me .. thanks for all the hard work
SmokinAl Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 I mentioned it to Rob on Thursday. I'm sure he'll pass it to Refresh if he hasn't already.
craigos Posted November 22, 2008 Author Posted November 22, 2008 Hi Rob The RSS feed is missing the author of the thread - it had that before (just like phone screening), I use it to sort, of course mails from El Presidente raise to the top Much appreciate that.
craigos Posted November 25, 2008 Author Posted November 25, 2008 no problem on the author - the old RSS feed used to show author in the subject. I think something is still amiss - I got 2 messagesper day for the last 3 days on RSS but I can see many more posted
craigos Posted November 28, 2008 Author Posted November 28, 2008 Guys - the RSS feed is still misbehaving. Basically the Microsoft Feed Engine (I work at ms so know what i am talking about) is getting the first message of the thread only. So when a new thread is generated its sending it to the RSS feed but any subsequent followup isnt. This could be due to the RSS feed not differentiating between (in the thread metadata) the first message and subsequent so the client is seeing them as dups and dropping them, or simply the follow up threads are not being published. I just clicked on the RSS feed (orange button on lower LHS) and the web page returned is all raw RSS data so cant make heads or tails out of it. Appreciate if the FOH folks can take a look please.
El Presidente Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 I know mine is working fine but that doesn't mean squat We will log a report on Tuesday with Invision Tech support to see if we can have it sorted for you. If anyone else has this issue please post here and detail browser being used.
