Feed me
Nobody reads blogs on a Sunday, so this is a good time to post something boring.
As I expected, I have been having some teething problems with this site. Things rarely go smoothly, and frankly, I worry when they do.
Apparently, my RSS Feed Reader wasn’t working which didn’t really surprise me.
Why wasn’t I surprised?
The theme I am using doesn’t have a built in RSS button, which is a huge omission. I had to install my own. Then I had to set up my Feedburner account and that’s where the trouble really started.
As far as I can make out, the Feedburner plugin has some problems with the latest WordPress. Or maybe it doesn’t? Either way, I had so many problems that I had to modify the plugin to get it to work.
In the course of this, I had to set up and delete my Feedburner account several times, and this is where the problem occurred. My button, and my account got out of synchronisation.
It took a bit of twiddling, but I think I have it working now.
Try it out.
If it doesn’t work, just let me know……
Works for me!
Great stuff.
It just occurred to me that this is a great way of getting subscribers! That wasn’t my intention. Though I see I am now have 28 which is nice for a site that’s only a few days old?
I subscribed last Wednesday I think it was. I did notice the feed was a bit screwed up yesterday but no problem now.
“I subscribed last Wednesday”
What took you so long? 😉
Exams!! Only finished up yesterday 🙂
Pfft, Feedburner… a large piece of crap…
“a large piece of crap”
So is the large pile that the dog leaves in the garden. But without it, she would be in a sorry state?
Considering I was reading that in my reader – on SUNDAY *harumph* – I think it’s all working.
So, I have like, 30 subscribers on a blog a few years old. Hmmm..
Yes – that works now – thank you!
no problems here, sugar! you’ve been in my google reader since i found you! xoxox
RhodesTer: Just think of yourself as a very exclusive club?
Kate: I’m glad, seeing as you were the one to mention it!
Savannah: Aw, thanks! You must have caught it at one of the rare times it was working..
Just a trouble maker me – I thought you knew!
I guessed!
