WinCustomize RSS broken?
Monday, August 14, 2006 by CosmicVoyager | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues
Hi,
I subscribed to WinCustomize's RSS feed (https://www.wincustomize.com/backend/wincustnews.xml), and I'm seeing articles, but each time I click on a link I get "The page cannot be found". This happens on all articles. Does anyone have the same problem?

it could be that the RSS feed you are using is from the 'old' forums...
all new forum Wincustomize feeds now seem to point forums.wincustomize.com, not www.wincustomize.com
try subscribing to the new RSS feeds on the new (this) forum
i'm using the wincustomize RSS feeds with no problems (FF 1.5.0.6)

Actually, I'm talking about the RSS feed for www.wincustomize.com, not the one(s) for the forums. The feed is listed on the main page, and shows the news articles (or should, if it was working).

hey cosmicVoyager,
yes, i realised that. the WC NEWS RSS feed should point to forums.wincustomize
https://forums.wincustomize.com/?g=rss&forumid=153
that is the RSS feed, and it works perfectly here...i believe you have picked up the 'old' RSS feed

OK, that link works, I've updated my feed, but the "XML" button on the front page should be adjusted or removed.
