NOTE TO ANYONE USING WORDPRESS WITH THE FEEDWORDPRESS PLUGIN:
If you are pulling a feed that used GET vars in the url it may have not been working properly. There was a bug related to ampersands in the url and it has been fixed in version 0.992 released on 2/4/08.
Download the updated plugin here: http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/feedwordpress.0.992.zip
All BumbleCash webmasters using Feedwordpress to pull our feeds should update to this newest release.
Quoted from FeedWordPress:
BUG RELATED TO URIS CONTAINING AMPERSAND CHARACTERS FIXED: A bug in WordPress 2.x’s handling of URIs in Blogroll links created problems for updating any feeds whose URIs included an ampersand character, such as Google News RSS feeds and other feeds that have multiple parameters passed through HTTP GET. If you experienced this bug, the most likely effect was that FeedWordPress simply would not import new posts from a feed when instructred to do so, returning a “0 new posts” response. In other cases, it might lead to unpredictable results from feed updates, such as importing posts which were not contained in the feed being syndicated, but which did appear elsewhere on the same website. This bug has, hopefully, been resolved, by correcting for the bug in WordPress. |
