I'm on 3.0.8 as well and the autolink is working nicely[^] for me[^]

It's working for me now...
There was a noticable delay between the link showing in the post body, and it getting transformed. Maybe I just started editing previously in that delay and confused things.
OK, I'll ungrudgingly let you have my compliments!

The delay is due to the Ajax (actually, Sjax, but, well, without the X) call to get the title from the URL.

My blog's feed[^] is currently served up by FeedBurner and provides categories in the following format:
<entry ...>
<id>...</id>
<category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="CodeProject" />
...
I believe this is an Atom format, so I'm guessing the absence of any blog articles for my feed indicates that this isn't a supported format yet. Is this right?
Cheers,
Derek.

Yes that's correct. We weren't sure that there would be much demand for formats other than RSS (Atom, OPML) so we chose not support as it would've meant more development time and testing  . So.. we'll consider it if the demand is there.
Maybe you can ask FeedBurner to generate RSS rather than Atom? Or in addition to your existing feed at another URL?
|
|
|
|

OK, thanks for confirming that. From what I can see, if I specify "?alt=rss" at the end of the source feed in FeedBurner and turn off SmartFeed it will produce an RSS format feed. I'll wait and see if CP picks up any articles now.
NOTE: The "?alt=rss" will only work if your feed is provided by blogger.

Great! Looks like it worked.

Have you tried Derek's trick? Also be sure to have "codeproject" in <category> element(s).

Now using http://rdn-consulting.com/blog/feed?alt=rss[^] and turned off SmartFeed, but it looks like the generated XML is still ATOM.
One of my posts does have:
<category><![CDATA[CodeProject]]></category>
How will I know if the changes I made work with the CP aggregator?
|
|
|
|
|
I am not sure when it happened, but since afternoon I noticed that the voting distribution does not show up for articles. Is this a known bug?
|
|
|
|
|
Missing for me too. Tis a shame.
Was nice to know if an average of 3 was because everyone thought an article was mediocre, or becuase it was very polarising. Like ![Good Stuff | [The good stuff]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/vegemite.gif) .

Before you even ask: it's back.
Just testing and will do an update during the quiet time this afternoon.

Only on some articles, Chris. For example : this one[^] does not show the voting distribution.

It's back. Once I upload the new code.

When I reply to a Lounge thread, I get an error saying the post could not be inserted. Then if I refresh the Lounge I do see my post there. A few seconds later, if I refresh again my post has vanished.
Is anyone else experiencing anything similar?
|
|
|
|
|
It seems to have been temporary because I can properly reply again. But the bug was definitely alive for at least 10 minutes. Between 5:15 PM and 5:25 PM EST on Mar 31, 2009.
I hope you were not testing out some April-1 joke code that auto deletes replies after a short time interval

Has anyone else managed to get this to work yet?
I've modified our RSS feed to add the necessary category tags (on a post by post basis) and submitted it OK, but so far the aggregator is not finding any posts (there should be three marked for CP consumption).
If anyone would like to look at the RSS source (http://www.riverblade.co.uk/rss.php[^]) and tell us what we're missing, I'd be happy to listen and tweak accordingly. ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif)

The aggregator currently only runs once a day. We didn't realise so many would jump onboard so we're increasing the frequency in a few minutes and adding more info explaining when aggregation runs occur.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the info. That'll be it, then! 
Looking ahead a bit, is there any way authors will be able to view diagnostic information if it fails to find anything when we know it should?
|
|
|
|
|
What would suit you? An email each time a blog was grabbed (This should happen already) and maybe an email if nothing was grabbed or there were errors?
We don't want to pester. If you go dark for a few weeks then the emails could be annoying.

Rather than sending more emails I think a button which let authors view the logs from recent polls would be more than sufficient.
There is a case for an email if an error was detected by the aggregator, but I certainly wouldn't do that if but no new posts were found but no errors were detected.

I like the idea of your list of blogs showing the latest download results. I'll add this to our TODO.

Cool.
FWIW our blog is still showing an update status of "Never", so either the aggregator hasn't polled it yet (which I would think would be unlikely by now) or it didn't find anything for some reason. That being the case, we need some help figuring out why...
