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!

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,

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.

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?

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.

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.

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.

Suggest Oracle Blogs RSS feed switch to "full content"

I discussed the importance of aggregators delivering "full content" feeds in http://tardate.blogspot.com/2007/08/otn-in-china-and-importance-of.html
I realised that the Oracle Blogs feed does not currently include full text. Can we get the newsfeed enhanced to include full text of posts (or at least as an option)?

I think I may have arrowed the wrong culprit. Seems the problem is with the individual blog authors, not the Oracle Blogs feed, so you can ignore my bleating here!

IWeb empty RSS Feed?

Hi there, i am on the most current Version of iWeb, now i realized that my Blog RSS Feed is always empty, i click subscribe and Safari says there are no items, checked the XML File abd it is empty, my Blog has already 10+ Entries, but none of them are visible in the Feed, anyone an idea?
I publish to MobleMe with iWeb...

And again, I suggest that everyone report the bug via the Safari "Report Bug to Apple..." selection under the Safari menu.
Pastor: Tech Support does not code the interoperability between say iWeb 09 and Safari, or iWeb 09 and internet browsers. IWeb's issue is probably a bug in their code. Tech Support can only guide you through 'user error' issues, or workarounds within user accessible software and hardware.
Since this issue is more global; i.e. everyone's site was working one day and then not the next, it is a coding or server side (how the code is executed) problem.
NOTE: the "Report Bug to Apple..." selection under the Safari menu DOES NOT SAY: "... Safari Bug ...". I predict that if enough "Report ..." via the Safari menu, Apple's software people will start talking to each other and resolve their interoperability issue between iWeb and internet browsers (Safari).
Calling Tech Support is only going to get someone who will work through a troubleshooting script. If the troubleshooting documentation they have doesn't cover interoperability between the web development software and the internet browsers, then everybody is stuck until someone dares to report it as a bug. When Apple's other programs get a bug reporting feature directly, I'll be happy to utilize that feature, but until then Safari's Reporting link allows you to send both a screenshot and the web page code so that someone on the coding side of things can see that this needs a fix.
Thanks Bobby!

Adding the nytimes RSS feed to MUSE

Hi Fellow Muse Users,
I'm trying - I should rather say hoping - to add an RSS feed from the nytimes to my homepage. I've read many fourms (both here and elsewhere) addressing this issue. It seems the common response is the "Insert HTML" function. I however am having a hard time accomplishing this. No problem with the insert function. I've done that with google maps and facebook. But the RSS feed seems like a different beast. Perhaps I'm not familiar with what components of the RSS feed I need to place in the muse insert "box"?
Anywords of wisdom would be helpful. I also think Adobe should develop an easy way to add a personal blog RSS feed or a secondary party RSS feed. This seems to be an oversight.
Cheers,
Tim

Try rssinclude.com
It's the best WISIWIG tool I've found for creating unlimited RSS widgets that can handle multiple feeds, with a variety of formats, customizable colours, transitions, size ect. that outputs to Java, PHP, Iframe (perfect for the copy paste html function in muse) it's free to try and $50 for 12 months, when I compared this to the cost and time of a developer to code something like this for me it was a no brainer!

RSS feeds and tags for blog series?

Hi,
We are trying to establish a blog series for news regarding our small OS/DB platform (DB4). Granularity of Categories regarding SDN blogs is far too low to shrink the contents suitably for our target group by using RSS feeds for a Category. And I suppose there is no way to create a dedicated category for the small amount of contributions to expect.
So, the current approach is to tell people to subscribe to the RSS feed pointing to my personal account. This is only a bad workaround. I'd prefer tagging the blog series with a specific keyword so other members of our group could contribute to the series, and blog contributions to other topics by me could be filtered out.
Any suggestions? Thanks a lot,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
My suggestion would be to use the SCN wiki
Each space has its own rss feed. I believe there is also a new way to work with specific wiki pages and labels.
I recommend you reach out to Moshe Naveh from my team and he'll assist.

I used to have an RSS feed to a blog site which is protected by a username and password rembered by Firefox. I am now asked for those details when trying to enter the blog and despite entering them correctly I am denied entry.

My old server (5.5. years) was failing me and loosing some random items. I have accessed this blog site for the past three years and during that period the access passwords and user names have been changed several times. Each time I asked Firefox to remember the correct details and I gained entry with no problems. Before I replaced the equipment I was continually refused entry despite entering all the correct information. I received a message telling me that I was either not entering the correct information (which according to the Blog editor I was) or that my server did not know how to connect to the RSS feed.

Is it possible to add an RSS feed to a blog created using web apps?

Is it possible to add an RSS feed to a blog created using web apps? Can RSS feeds be used for items other than an actual blog?

No, but you have an RSS feed of your blog anyway and you can set an RSS feed for your web app if you want as well.Business Catalyst Help | Create RSS feeds

Can you add an RSS feed on an iweb blog that would allow visitors to receive new entries by email?

Can you add an RSS feed on an iweb blog that would allow visitors to receive new blog entries through their email?

RSS feeds don't do that - if they add the feed to an RSS reader (including Safari or FireFox) they will see new updates every time they check: but sending them emails on each added episode would require extra programming in the actual program, which iWeb doesn't provide. You would need to have a mailing list and send out an email manually each time you add an episode.

RSS feed on blog

I didn't notice something wrong about RSS feed on blog. when I click RSS, the page only shows 5 topics not entire one. I don't know how to fix it. well, I can still see all of them from archive.

Just click on the inspector and modify the "Number of Excerpts to Show". That will allow yo to show more or less, of course you only want the most recent ones, the archive is meant to be the repository of everything....

RSS Feed Headers for Multiple Blogs on My Site

I have been using iWeb to design a new site that contains two separate blogs:
http://web.me.com/matthew.sholler/Site/Notebook/Notebook.html
http://web.me.com/matthew.sholler/Site/Civics/Civics.html
When I test the RSS feed for each in Safari, however, I have a problem. The "Notebook" blog name appears in the blue banner, but when I access the "Civics" blog feed, its name does not. Can anyone tell me how to make it appear? I realize that Apple may not have intended to allow the use of more than one blog for iWeb, but any creative solutions for my idea are welcome.

I figured this out myself: In my haste to redesign the layout of my blog pages, I left the pre-set text box for the blog name blank--so the feed banner appeared blank as well.
On a side note, I've seen a lot of questions on this board concerning blogs and feeds, and many of them have gone unanswered for months. How are people supposed to rely on this board for support if no one answers their questions?
