aron novakDo you experience this only for one URL or all of them?
Please paste example URL(s) here.
There is no hard limit for the length of URL, the db field type is TEXT.
Comment #2
netentropy commentedthere are not the exact same RSS urls however you can see one difference. There is an ampersand at the end of the first URL. Is not there whenver I first put the URL into Feed API but after a few cron runs it changes.
I will try to test it better this week and keep track of it.
After Cron:
http://rss.api.ebay.com/ws/rssapi?FeedName=SearchResults&siteId=0&langua...
Before Cron (not exactly but generated the same way)
http://rss.api.ebay.com/ws/rssapi?FeedName=SearchResults&siteId=0&langua...

netentropy commentedok i have proof now that the URL was changed
I even checked my input filter to make sure it wasn't what was causing the truncations
please look at the end of the url as i know drupal does not show the entire URL
to test, i pasted the url in the body so i could compare it to the url in the feed box
here is the original feed url:
http://search.ebay.com/ws/search/SaleSearch?sofocus=bs&satitle=loose+dia...
here is the feed url after about 3 crons:
http://search.ebay.com/ws/search/SaleSearch?sofocus=bs&satitle=loose+dia...
it shortened it from 467 characters to 255 characters
Comment #4
netentropy commentedCan anyone suggest a way to fix this or why this may be happening?
Comment #5
netentropy commentedhas this been addressed in the new version
i just looked at the sql tables
i noticed the field URL is not TEXT but Varchar which limits 255
Comment #6
aron novakLook at feedapi_update_6102() in feedapi.install. Here the url is changed to text. Did you correctly run update.php every time?
