Simple Wordpress RSS / Aggregation Question
 
I've tried to aggregate my wordpress feed through two different aggregation scripts. Both times I get these Â's popping up after every period. Anyone know why or how I can remove them? |huh

Only one I use or have tried is magpie, never saw any problems, with wordpress or other feeds.

I just added your feed to RSSXXXFeeds with no problem

Thanks guys. |thumb

I guess I'll have to look at Magpie again. From what I recall it was a kinda overly robust for my needs. Oh that, and the instructions were 404 last time I looked.

Ya it's sure not very user friendly. Your not missing much, there was'nt much as far as instructions, wish there was more. I've only used it for simple feed draws. I could send it, what little there is if you want.

FeedWordPress is the easiest plugin for this tht I have come across. But only about one-quarter adult feeds actually verify so that might be your problem...

All that said... quote: "aggregate my feed". You are talking about pulling in third-party feeds and not about making your feed available? I assume so since WordPress generates your feed for you.

But if you do mean your own feed, then the first step would be to validate it.

Preacher, I'm pulling your feed in on XXX Blog Feeds without any problems.

PM me if you want, I'm not a magpie expert but may be able to point you in the right direction. Let me know what your trying to do.

No, I'm actually talking about pulling my blog feed -- that has no trouble being pulled by at least 5 aggregators -- onto another domain that I run. Similiar to how I'm pulling AVN's feed here: This Depraved World.

Thanks for the offer Walrus, I'm making this my weekend project so you may hear from me then. :)

I really haven't a clue about rss, but I managed to install a script called feed2js that uses magpie and spits out a java code that allows you to display the feed pretty much anywhere. I use it to pull a blog feed to this page and also for sponsor feeds.

It looks like their site has gone belly up, but if you want to try it I still have the zip. I tested it on your feed and it worked just fine.
