Title: RSS feed for the development blog
Post by: Creat on July 07, 2014, 11:41:30 AM
Hello again!

I have recently added the RSS feed for the blog to my feed reader and noticed that the articles aren't properly linked. All articles simply link to atomictorch.com (http://atomictorch.com) instead of atomictorch.com/Post/Id1065 (http://atomictorch.com/Post/Id1065) (as an example). Having a direct linkk would be especially nice when reading on my phone, where navigation is a bit cumbersome...

I think it is something on your end.
If you open the page https://atomictorch.com/Blog/RSS in your browser you will see that links are actually working properly.

Or am I missing something? Because I never use RSS so I wouldn't really know :)

Ah, after a bit of checking I think I've found the issue. You're using atom-formatted links, but you specify in the header that it's an RSS 2.0 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS) feed. While similar, those are not the same. The fix is rather trivial: most of the feed is actually perfectly well formatted as RSS 2.0, with the exception of the links.

So just change <link href="https://atomictorch.com/Post/Id1064"/> to this <link>https://atomictorch.com/Post/Id1064</link>

Side note: The reason I get every article linked to the main page is that the channel link is the only one that's formatted properly, so it falls back to it for the articles.
