Blogging – Make Sure You Know What You’re Doing!
January 25, 2008, filed under Blogging Insights
As a few days ago, I had a problem with my feed. Latest posts were not delivered and RSS feeds were showing nothing. I went to my feedburner account and spending a couple of hours looking for what went wrong. I also checked my plugins in case something caused a redirection of the feed. I asked for a help in feedburner’s forum and received nice help and supports from a member nicknamed “whale”. He gave me some suggestions, but I still hadn’t managed to solve the problem.
Then I remembered that some days earlier, I read a post about “fighting scrapers”. I forgot where, but one of the solution was to add your permalink in the file “feed-rss2.php” so that every time scrapers steal your content, there’ll always be a note of where the content is originally from. In this case, it’s HomeBiz Resource. Apparently, I didn’t do it correctly. The codes I added screwed up the feed and rendered it invalid and accessible. I realized that I knew nothing about the codes I had added, what did they mean, what they’re supposed to do. The instructions were clear, but looks like sometimes an additional knowledge is needed.
So I recopied the file from my original WordPress files and…voila! My feed revives and you can keep updated about the Hottest from HomeBiz Resource!
