The feed is - the front page of the BBC news site (UK version).

Links not showing:

I have "Show link to feed with each item: Inline in body/teaser" selected... but there are no links displayed in the 'nodes' that result. Similarly "In links list" doesn't seem to do anything - the only links in the list are to the 'nodes'.

"Use source link" is selected.

In the "manage feeds" menu, 'Show "original article"/"visit site" link: always' is selected.

Duplicate items shown:

"Update already existing news items" is also selected - I thought this would result in duplicate items replacing the original copy, but they download as new ('updated') items, don't they? Perhaps "Redownload already existing.." or "Allow duplicates of..." would be better.

Apart from these, this is exactly what I was looking for - thank you.

Oops, it's hidden the feed URL:

Links show ok for the feed from

//www.guardian.co.uk/rss

Could this be related to the fact that the BBC feed is 'posted' by anonymous whereas the Guardian feed is 'posted' by a named user?
