Full Feeds Not Going To Planets

  • Unknown's avatar

    I run a small planetplanet site at http://planet.ubuntu-maryland.org and am having a problem with feeds from wordpress.com.

    The feeds come through as though the summary option were checked rather than the full feed option under the dashboard>settings>reading option. I’ve tried using both options without any difference in what the feed shows. The address I was using for testing was http://chuckf.wordpress.com/feed both with and without a trailing /.

    If I look at the feed via tiny tiny rss I see truncated feeds under either option.

    If I look at it through Thunderbird on Ubuntu I see the full feed or summary with the appropriate setting.

    I admit on first blush the solution appears to be ‘go to the feed readers and get them to fix it’. I think it’s a wordpress.com issue due to the fact that I have other WP installations feeding to those readers without any problem.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

  • Hi Chuck,

    Your feed definitely contains full content. WordPress full content feeds contain both the full posts, and summaries as well (for readers that don’t understand full content feeds). If I had to guess I’d say your planetplanet feed reader gets confused by that. It’s not something we can fix.
