Blog RSS Feed won't work

In my application if the blog appears on the restricted page where login is required "Subscribe to RSS" link gives the error as below.
Safari can't open the page "feed:xxx.xxxx.xxx/xxx/xxx/xxx/-/blogs/rss". The error is: "The feed could not be loaded because the content is not in a known feed format." (PubSub:2) Please choose Safari > Report Bugs to Apple, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message.
RSS Feed loads correctly in on MAC Firefox.
If the blog appears on the page where login is not required, RSS Feed loads correctly in MAC Safari also.
Is the feed processed differently in both scenarios described above? Is there a way to make it work?

Ok...
You are running 10.6.2 according to your profile. Download and install the v10.6.3 Combo Update
Then repair disk permissions.
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

Blog rss feed is buggy?

Has anyone had luck creating a blog rss feed? When I look at my rss feed in Safari it shows an small image and text for each entry. When I click on the image, instead of linking to the entry page, Safari opens a full sized image.
You can see this at: feed://rss.mac.com/kevinpackard/iWeb/The%20Packards/690A4A1C-A190-4DF0-B0B2-635 DD508F304/rss.xml
I think it's a bug, but thought I'd run it by the forum here before I file it as a bug with Apple.
Thanks,
Kevin Packard

I had set the webpage URL to www.server.edu/~login/ when I was asked after choosing to publish the site, and when I clicked on the RSS button all I saw was a white screen with some broken images and a few bits of text. When I changed the URL to www.server.edu/~login/blog/rss.xml, it now works correctly.

Firefox 34.0.5: Live bookmarks (RSS feeds) won't stay open! :(

Firefox 34.0.5: Live bookmarks (RSS feeds) won't stay open! If I close Firefox and reopen it, all my live bookmark folders are closed and I have to manually reopen them (such as BBC World News, etc.). Please restore the old functionality: If I have it open when I quit, let it be open when I come back! If I had it closed, then keep it closed. Thanks!

Thanks for your reply and for taking an interest. I've attached the screenshot in PNG format--hope that's okay. I use bookmarks only in the Sidebar, never in the toolbar (I just have way too many!)
The BBC News live bookmark that is shown opened in that screenshot always comes back closed after I close Firefox and reopen it. (This is true for ALL other live bookmarks as well. Formerly, in earlier versions of Firefox, the open ones always remained open, and the closed ones closed, which is the correct behavior, imho.)

Rss feed won't publish all my blog posts, help please!

I posted my blog in iWeb using the rss feed widget. I have about 10 blog posts on my blog, but only about 5 show up in the feed. I have changed the size of the page, and the amount of articles in the feed inspector to 20. Is this a problem with the cache? If it is I will delete it. Please help!

IWeb Blog RSS feed no longer updates

When I originally published my iWeb blog to .Mac, the RSS feed contained all 3 posts. Since then the RSS feed hasn't updated, although I've added several new entries to the blog. I've checked the source code of the RSS feed and it only contains the original 3 posts.
Any suggestions for getting the RSS feed to update?

Follow-up post. Strangely, when checking ths RSS feed from IE at work, I see the new posts in the source data of the feed. So this is not an iWeb problem, but probably related to the more general RSS update issues within Safari.

Blogging RSS feeds

Hoping some one can cast some light on this problem. I have this website created in iWeb'08.
I have used a blog section for some news items, however when I click on the RSS feed I get the following error:
Safari can’t open the page “feed://www.belmonthousestud.com/belmontsite/successstories/rss.xml” because it could not load any data from this location.
Now the strangest thing is that link appears to operate fine when clicked in either Firefox 2 or Internet Explorer 7!
I have tried Safari 2 and Safari 3 beta. Strangest thing is that the podcast feed works!
(Link to problem page)
http://www.belmonthousestud.com/belmontsite/success_stories/successstories.html

HAHAHAHAA!!!
I know your problem EXACTLY!!!
Here's what you need to do...
Go to your domain name provider (go daddy?) and have them switch the forwarding to:
web.mac.com/KeithVaugh (or whatever your .mac (apple) log-in name is. If you had the same forwarding before it will have all sorts of ugly stuff after it that isn't needed anymore.
If this is godaddy you'll need to wait about 15 minutes or so after the fact.
Then...
In iWeb08... choose the FILE - Personal Domain settings... this will open your internet browser...
Follow the prompts and CANCEL your personal domain. Don't worry about the warnings. -- if you keep your forwarding on at your domain provider you will still get hits/redirects at the www site.
Quit iWeb and restart
Then at the bottom of iWeb you will no longer see the [email protected] (www.belmonthousestud.com) with the green light... you should only see your email.
All will be good!!!!
Worked for me
Best luck,

The system Pages library and its RSS feed do not work properly in SharePoint 2010

This question is about RSS feed for the system 'Pages' library in SharePoint 2010.
Now there are 5 'News' pages in the system 'Pages' library. In each news page there is one field called 'Title' for the news title. One of the news page is named 'FileNamePage5.aspx', and the news title is 'This is the title of page5'.
I have enabled RSS in Site Settings, and configured RSS Settings for the 'Pages' library from the Communications section via Document Library Settings. I selected a few columns to display in the RSS description, including the 'Title' column. In the RSS feed
(XML file) of the system 'Pages' library, I checked the XML source code, and found the news page file name appearing in the <title> tag below within the feed (XML source code).
<title>FileNamePage5</title>
and the original news title 'This is the title of page5' was appearing in the <description> tag in the feed (XML sorce code)
<description><![CDATA[<div> ... This is the title of page5... </div>]]></description>.
This would make it hard to extract ONLY the original news title (This is the title of page5) out of the feed via XSLT, because the data within the <description> tag in the feed also contains data from all other selected columns defined via the RSS
Setting. If I did not select the 'Title' column via RSS Setting above, I even could not find the orinigal news title in the RSS feed.
This is happening for all other news pages in the system 'Pages' library. Is this what SharePoint 2010 normally does? or is something wrong with the settings for site or the system 'Pages' library?
How to display ONLY the original news title (This is the title of page5) in the <title> tag in the RSS feed. Please Help me to resolve this issue.
谢亚军@Sydney

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display the value in Title column of Pages library in title tag in RSS Feed in SharePoint.
I tested the same scenario per your post, the title tag in RSS Feed displayed the value of Name column in libraries and displayed the value of Title column in lists.
It is by design and there is no OOB way to change the default column mapping in RSS Feed.
I recommend to customize your own RSS Feed style sheet to make the title displays the value of Title column in SharePoint libraries.
Here is a link about customizing the RSS Feed for document library for you to take a look:

The enclosure in RSS feed doesn't work for Itune

I subscribed to my podcast rss feed to ITune, which was valid and had been tested successfully with other aggregator such as Ipodder, however, it doesn't work for ITune. When I hit "get" button next to my podcast name, I always get "!" sign in front of the name, and when I clicked it, I got error message "There was a problem downloading 'XXXXX'. The network connection could not be made".
I'm not sure if this problem resulted from the "rewrite" function I used on my podcasting server in order to track the downloading. Here is how it works: When a mp3 file is requested, my web server will redirect the request to another asp.net program to do something and then redirect to the real mp3 file for downloading. Can it be problem in Itune? But I can use this enclosure url to download this mp3, and also the Ipodder works file with this rss feed.
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks for your reply.
However, according to the iTune specs as following,
Tracking Usage
Please note that iTunes does not provide usage statistics. Some podcasters have created mechanisms for tracking the number of times that each episode has been downloaded. iTunes does not provide support in how to track downloads, but the following notes may be helpful:
* 302s will be followed to a depth of 5 redirects and will not update the feed URL in the directory.
* The URL before the GET-style form values (before the first ?) must end in a media file extension (e.g. mp3). To work around this, the feed provider can alter their URL from this:
http://www.podcaster.com/load.php?f=&Wipeout.php
to this:
http://www.podcaster.com/load.mp3?f=&Wipeout.mp3
Notice how it says load.mp3 instead of load.php. It should be possible to accomplish this via various means, such as web server rewrites. iTunes looks at the extension of the path part of the url, i.e. the part before the”?”.
The http request redirection is allowed as long as the appropriate file extension such as ".mp3" is used.
By the way, I tested it with "no redirection" version, which worked fine.

Firefox 13.0+ bookmarked RSS feeds won't auto refresh

Hello. Since Firefox 13.0 and above (up to the latest 17 pre alpha nightly) the feature that allows your bookmarked RSS feeds to be automatically updated is GONE. Previously popular browser.bookmarks.livemark_refresh_seconds (I had to enter this value) either broken or does not exist in the latest FF versions, it is simply does not work.
I've tried everything, starting from disabling add-ons to safe mode but nothing helps in solving this problem. Could you please tell if this is a bug or this feature is no longer supported in Firefox so I can stop bothering and switch to another browser
Best Regards

Yes, you now need to refresh the live feed items manually because live feeds now work as regular bookmarks.<br />
Only the initial loading is automatic the first time you open a live feed bookmark.

Entry in RSS Feed won't delete

I have an entry that has been deleted from my blog page in iWeb, but the summary continues to display on the RSS Feed. I've accessed the feed from various computers and still see the same results. Of course, because the entry on the blog is deleted, when a user clicks on Read More from the RSS feed they receive a page not found error.
Does anyone know how or why the entry I deleted from my blog continues to show on the RSS feed?

I assume you have deleted the page or entry, and saved the changes in iWeb, but have you also republished?
That should rewrite the rrs feed in your iWeb RSS folder.
If not, you may have to go to the rrs file, and modify it manually.

Rss:PubDate gives too much info to iWeb Blog RSS feed

Hi All!
Blog pages are setup in iWeb, and I've got an external "bot" that subscribes to the RSS feed from the blog. I'm grabbing the feed and stripping the {rss:pubDate}, {rss:title} and {rss:description} fields from the feed to re-format for posting in a discussion forum. (Note: no copyright issues here, as I write the blog, publish the feed, and host/admin/moderate the forum.)
I'm wondering if the {rss:PubDate} field can be stripped down to include less information in the feed? It seems the PubDate is derived from the date and time of the blog post that's feeding it. ie: I enter 12/28/1993 in the blog entry "Date" field... the RSS feed comes out with the date I entered, AND the time of day and GMT offset the post was created. I don't need the time of day and GMT offset in my forum post headlines... is there any way to put less information into the {rss:PubDate} field via the blog entry page in iWeb? I'd like my {rss:PubDate} field to read "12/28/1993" instead of "12/28/1993 04:23:57 -0800"
Ideas?
-Case

Bonjour
For RSS feed, iWeb only use the URL you write in the Site Publishings settings. Make sure that you've written http://thesnugglycactus.net/ and not https://thesnugglycactus.net/
But I don't really think that you wrote https, otherwise RSS feed would not be your only issue.

RSS feed reader stopped working

Hi,
I have an RSS feed reading function that worked just fine until yesterday. I grab an RSS feed from google news using cfhttp and then parse it using XMLParse. I am attaching the code below.
Does anyone know if anything changed at Google or somewhere else that would cause my code to stop working? Instead of the expected results, I see the browser saying the page is loading but never get any results.
Perhaps there is a parameter I never set in the CFHTTP line and skated by without it for all this time. It is definitely hanging up on the CFHTTP call.
Thanks for the help.

Rss feed won't validate when I use the itunes:order element?

Hi
I'm trying to use the <itunes:order> element -
http://deimos.apple.com/rsrc/doc/iTunesUAdministrationGuide/AddingContent/chapte r12_section3.html
When I run my feed through the W3C rss validator it won't validate. It says - Undefined item element: itunes:order
I also get a recommendation which says - Use of unknown namespace: http://www.itunesu.com/feed
As far as I can tell I'm doing everything correctly. The iTunes and iTunesU namespaces are declared correctly in the root rss element and the itunes:order are where they should be within the <item></item> element.
What am I doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.

I have been in touch with someone at Apple and I was advised that I shouldn't worry about this.
It would seem that the feed validator doesn't recognise the iTunes U namespace and some of the iTunes and iTunes U specific feed elements. The use of an unknown namespace gives an adviosry note and <itunes:order> and <itunesu:category> elements will not validate at all. I suspect there may be other elements that I haven't used in our feeds.

Blog Post Links Won't Work

Greetings!
My blog post links at http://HealthyDayFitness.com/ won't work and I can't figure out how to remedy the problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers!

Thanks for the reply!
I'm publishing to a folder and using FileZilla to upload the site. I simply click and drag all the files within my site folder onto the site. I did not click and drag the folder, because then it gives me the address http://HealthyDayFitness.com/HealthyDayFitness/Welcome.html. Looks messy in my opinion.
I'm a little confused on what you mean by blank spaces on the page name... This is the blog page that works: http://healthydayfitness.com/Blog/Blog.html
If you click on "First Post," that's when things go haywire, but I don't see any blank spaces in that broken URL.
Any other thoughts? If not, I'll give the folder upload a try.
