RSS page differs from feed differs from blog
-
I have a problem and browsing through faq and forums hasn’t helped yet.
I added a feed button in a text widget and it worked for a short while but today it didn’t update with the contents of my blog. So I looked through the forums and found help: I changed the link from harinne.wordpress.com/feed to harinne.wordpress.com/rss. That solved everything beautifully for a while. But now my rss bage is lagging as well.
So I have a feed that stopped updating this morning, and an RSS that stopped some hours ago. The blog, the feed and the rss pages all look different. And I doubt it’s the widget since this problem occurs even when typing the addresses manually.
Anyone got a good solution to this?

I would use /feed/ by the way. The same files produce the output but /feed/ is customary with wordpress. Since /rss/ isn’t used that often, it’s mnight not upupdating in a time manner as you’ve noted it.
I note that Recent Entires widget in your sidebar is current. That’s strange.
I do note that your /feed/ feed is a post behind. That is strange. Best bet would be to send in a feedback to staff via the link at the upper right of your dashboard. DO note that giving specifics would be very helpful as I’m sitting here trying to figure out which posts have and have not appeared.
edit: As I write this, the /feed/ updated and is now correct.

Thanks for your reply. Maybe I make the problem look bigger than it actually is. I just more or less assumed that the feed would update in real time. I’ll just keep my eyes on it and if needed I’ll do as you say and send some feedback. Again, thanks Doctor! :)

I just noticed the datetime stamp at the head of the RSS output. It does look like it’s cached. I’d sit here and do F5s to see how often but I’m kind of tied up today.
