[arch-general] Planet Arch Linux atom feed.
Guys, if any of you are subscribed to planet arch, then you must have noticed a problem with some of the feeds. The problem is, the summary of the feed displays fine, but when i open the feed, it shows the xml of the feed instead of showing the website. http://planet.archlinux.org/atom.xml (this is shown). This happens with only a few of the feeds. Recently happened with these feeds: Arch Haskell News: February 2010, Archiso-live 20100217 Release. I am using firefox with newsfox. Anyone else notice this? Godane's Development Blog

Can you please clarify what you mean by "opened the feed"? The feeds items you describe *do* link to planet.archlinux.org and not the feed's parent. This may be a bug in those feeds (both are wordpress) or it may be a bug in planet. I am not sure

By Opening i mean, going to the page linked with the feed. i view feeds in text form in the feed reader, but sometimes i instead click the feed link to go to the webpage. Most of the feeds on planet arch, when "opened" go to the blogs linked to the feed content. but some, when opened simply show the atom xml.

This is nothing to do with the atom feed specifically. Go to the main planet page and click on the links for articles from Godane or Arch Haskell. They do not link through to the blog they came from.

Yes, they simply show the website instead of the particular article. while other feeds take to the specific article on the website. Maybe i am not able to explain it clearly, but i think you can try it yourself, even with firefox live bookmarks. I mean each entry in a feed has a link, but the link on the problematic feed is simply http://planet.archlinux.org/atom.xml So clicking on it sort of makes an endless loop, and to read the full article i have to manually open the planet arch website and then go the respective (only problematic ones) blog from there.

Ah but google reader additions of the offending feeds seem to work fine. They link through properly. Our planet feed does not. Hmm...
