My blog will not show up in rss feeders

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have my reading settings set to full text, and yet when i use the Pulse reader app, my blog does not show up in a search and will not show my full posts in the reader. Also,I noticed the rss icon does not show up in the url bar like i read it was supposed to.
    Blog url: http://artmmm.wordpress.com/

    Your feed looks great from here – what URL are you using to access your blog feed?

    In safari, the feed seems to work okay, but my problem is that firefox does not show a feed and i use Pulse as my blog reader and it also doesnot properly show my blog. Is this something i can fix?

  • Your feed appears to be working properly for me in Firefox, and its perfectly valid.

    Depending on your version of Firefox, you may just see a stream of data (which is what a feed actually is) rather than a fancy style.

    Does Pulse give you any errors?

    There arent any errors in pulse. i typed in my blog exactly with /feed/rss and the blog came up as a summary in the “text” option and full text like a normal blog feed in the “web” section. I typed in my blog as /atom and the feed came up the way i wanted. so in that way i’m relieved but still frustrated that searching my name in Pulse does not produce my wordpress blog in the results.

    I still can only get summary text when i ask for feed, rss or atom, in firefox

    Is this normal? I feel like i’m on the right track and i thank you so much for your help

  • Instead of /feed/rss, try just /feed/

    /feed/rss is actually the RSS v1 protocol, while /feed/ is RSS v2.

    As for summary vs. full content, you can control that via Settings -> Reading in your blog’s Dashboard.

    i did both suggestions and my blog summary still showing for both. am i S.O.L?

  • Your feed is displaying full text now, but you may need to make a new post for some feed readers to re-load the feed.
