Known Issue: Feeds not updating

Monday, April 7th, 2008

There’s a known issue at the moment with some feeds not updating correctly – if you’re having problems getting new content don’t panic, it should be there soon. It is due to an issue with the service that retrieves the RSS feeds from the source dealing with the volume of feeds we have now; a fix is in the works.

Update 2008-04-10 – this has been fixed.

First FeedZero.com update

Monday, March 31st, 2008

We have just uploaded our first update for FeedZero.com . This week we have concentrated on polishing up some of the more obvious bugs. Here’s a quick summary of the changes:

  • Fixed ‘Contact us’ page
  • Fixed the collapsing/expanding of articles on rating change (to stop the page jumping around when rating)
  • Better handling for broken HTML in articles
  • Better handling for timestamps on articles
  • Don’t change state of manually collapsed/expanded articles when rating
  • Improved support for RDF feeds
  • Fixed a bug resulting in multiple feed subscriptions from a single site
  • Separation of static content
  • Fixed a bug preventing the paging system from working in Safari
  • Performance improvements for the back-end feed downloader service.
  • Use ‘pretty’ URLs like /articles instead of /ViewArticles/Index.rails
  • Few tweaks for IE6 and IE7 behaviour.

We have also added linked this blog off the main FeedZero site. If you have any issues with any of the changes, please feel free to let us know in the comments!

Our next release should have a “read/unread” feature to keep track of which articles you have previously seen.
