  I recently noticed that my RSS feed at https://cinquecentine.wordpress.com/feed/ is no longer updating. The last post it contains is from June 27th and the lastBuildDate is June 27th as well, even though I have published multiple posts on my blog since.
  Changing the feed settings (“Display x most recent blog posts”) didn’t trigger a new build either.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi –

  Thanks for getting in touch. I’m seeing a different <lastbuilddate> when I check the feed. I see Nov 20th, 2018 – comparing that date to your post list, there only would be 2 posts missing from the feed.

  Have you tried flushing your browser cache , restarting your system , etc … ? I am not certain it will make a difference at all but it is a good thing to rule out when running in to issues like this.

  Hi, thank you for your quick reply. I tried it on multiple browsers and computers and it still gives me the same date. This is where it gets weird though: prompted by your post I tried connecting to the page via VPN, and it is actually serving me a different page with a lastBuildDate of November 20th.
  So right now I am going through the list of VPN locations available to me. So far I have tried the US and Italy (both Nov 20th) as well as Frankfurt and Berlin in Germany (Jun 7th). My actual location is in Germany as well.

  If it helps, here’s the results of my little VPN world tour: there appear to be three different versions, built on Jun 27th, Nov 19th and Nov 20th respectively. The Nov 19th version is visible in Asia, Oceania and the US West Coast. In Europe and the rest of America some locations show the Jun 27th version and some show the Nov 20th version, seemingly at random.

  Hi @fstat, unfortunately the problem still persists. Have there been any updates on the situation?

  @walterbehrendt, can you try following your own site in the reader to see if that will help it? Normally people do this automatically. You don’t need to subscribe to email updates.

  Can you try that then let us know if the issue clears up?
