At the moment your feed includes:

* Drupal Contributions API Site Launched
* Drupal Shadowbox Module Released
* Drupal Blueprint Theme Coming Soon
* Freestyle Systems redesign

First three are great for ther planet, the last one is drupal related but not important to everyone on drupal planet.
Maybe should have a seperate "planetdrupal" feed.

I completely agree, I was expecting only new posts to show in the planet, anyone know if this is true?

I have made a special Planet Drupal term for all the most important Drupal stuff that people would be most interested in:

http://freestylesystems.co.uk/tags/planet-drupal
http://freestylesystems.co.uk/feed/14

Hope this helps get my site added as people keep asking me why it's not in there!

Hi add1sun, "Freestyle Systems" would be great.

Hi,

The site link is referencing the feed. Could you please change it to:

http://freestylesystems.co.uk/tags/planet-drupal

Thanks a lot!

I think that this is caused by a bug in the core aggregator (or the lack of a feature, or both).

It has a field for the feed location and then it figures out the underlying URL. In your case, it doesn't seem to be able to figure out the underlying URL

If we used http://freestylesystems.co.uk/taxonomy/term/14/0/feed then I think that the core aggregator would sense the underlying URL properly. How does that sound?

Hi greggles, I'm happy to use that URL for the feed and I guess there's no real negative to it.

I've used the Views RSS module to create the feeds for my site, I didn't realise the terms by default have feeds at taxonomy/term/tid/0/feed. Maybe I should have just aliases them to feed/tid instead.

Do you think it would be better for me to 'fix' the problem on my site by reworking the term feeds using path aliases rather than passing arguments to the View?

I have setup an alias from the path you suggested to:

http://freestylesystems.co.uk/feed/planet-drupal

Please could you try this and see if it works?

psynaptic - May 14, 2008 - 12:43

Okay, all term feeds are now coming from taxonomy/term/id/0/feed URLs with aliases feed/term so that feed/drupal-planet should work fine.

Thanks for giving me that heads-up in IRC greggles, here is the correct path:

http://freestylesystems.co.uk/tags/planet-drupal/feed
