All kinds of Challenges
09:36
Challenges, that what so far mostly is brought to me by the move to wordpress. What is very good, is that all is nicely solvable. For example yesterday I added the last, old, podcast episode to the journal. Just to test how it will be published by wordpress and how iTunes will eat it after feedburner swallow it. That went perfectly well.
What is not so easy to do is to force all you come to the new RSS feed. As I see from statistic, there was about 700 hits in less than 24 hours for my old feed. I try to do it right way and I inserted following code in it:
<redirect>
<newLocation>http://feeds.feedburner.com/RichardVanekPhotography</newLocation>
</redirect>
Doesn’t seem to be working so I put back old RSS items with one new informing you about new feed. Now it is up to you manually update your RSS reader to the new feedburner one. Well it is not really new, it was there for very long time, but I guess not many of you did use it.
Ah yes, it would seem I have missed a few posts because of being on the old feed, thank you for alerting us of the change, and am now subscribed to the new one here :-)
PS: I liked your previous ‘Summer Is Coming’ photo… and from following your link provided, is a tad less ‘erotic’ than that Belegou’s work… I really did like a lot of his shots in his Destines series, I like how he composed the subjects in the background of him holding, or doing something in the foreground
Jeff it is indeed very good photography what Jean-cloude is doing. Take a look also on his older work, I think you will like it.
Probably Apache redirection will work for the RSS, mod_rewrite.. good luck
Yes Dirk that works if your player does understand redirection, but many not. Also mant RSS agregating services do not.
I try and monitored that on logs only 7% accessed to original feed after recevibg 301 redirection picked up new feed.
