Description

I have the planet module up and running. It pulls in the new posts fine.
However when I click on the rss icon by the url I get page could not be found. ht eend of the generated url is;

/index.php?q=blog/feed

Any idea what might be causing this?

Hi danbuntu,

Thanks for your report.

I didn't have time yet to explore all parts of code, but, if I understood what you mean, I have an idea yes.

Planet is a feed aggregator, that means its role is to collect and present in drupal blog items posted elsewhere, on other sites.

When you click on an rss icon, you're requesting a syndication feed from current page, that is the opposite direction.

This is not handled directly by planet, maybe by another module you enabled ? On my test site, no syndication icon appears on planet pages.

Hope this helps,

RockyRoad

Yes that was useful thanks.

i'm not sure what I had donw wrong to start with but i deleted the views i was using and recreated it with a new rss feed and it's working fine now.

It would be cool if the planer module could gain it's own rss built in at some point as this would let content be aggregated in one place and then pushed back out again.
For Example I am currently taking feeds from my users by the planet, events and twitter modules - then aggregating them all into one mega feed.

Yes this came to my mind as I was answering your first post.
This sounds like a good idea. I keep it on the list of requested features.

Thank you for explaining your use case. It will be useful.

I updated front page. Stay tuned :)
