Weird error with comment feed links
-
Howdy everybody,
The theme I’m using doesn’t have links to the RSS feeds for the comments of specific posts (not the general comments feed, but just for one post). I would assume (correctly i hope) that the URL for the feed would be the URL of the post, with /feed/ stuck on the end. So I upload a little RSS icon to my account, put it at the bottom of the post, edit the link so it points to the feed address, and save it. All good right? But this is where it gets weird: it never saves it with the /feed/ at the end of the URL, it for some reason changes to /29/. I can’t think of anything that may have done this, as all other links on my blog have worked just fine.
Any help would be most appreciated! -
The comments feed for your blog woudl be: feed://colinrules.wordpress.com/comments/feed/
For a particular post, it would, as an example: feed://colinrules.wordpress.com/2007/12/10/the-anti-lurker-post/comments/feed/

For some reason it has now stopped saving the /feed/ as /29/. I’m crossing my fingers and I hope it holds out! Thanks anyways!

There are some gremlins running around in several areas, and staff is working on getting them ironed out. I expect there was some changes or upgrades perhaps over the weekend.

Actually it looks like it’s working now. Do note that some themes will have that link for you displayed within the theme. You just got luck of the draw i guess on that one.

I guess so. About the themes, that is very true, but imho no themes are near as sweet as ChaoticSoul :)
It’s still mind-boggling to me though … i mean, why 29???
