Feed Updates

A combined feed is now available that has all of the segues and articles together. No need to subscribe to two separate feeds any longer. The feed with just the articles is still available.

Another change I made while creating the combined feed is when clicking on segues in the feed, they will now take you directly to the link rather than back to SimplePixels first. Should make for easier reading.

I will keep the segues only feed alive for awhile, but if you are subscribed to that feed, please update your readers to point to the new combined feed. Thanks for tuning in.

  • Matthew, awesome site. I’ve just launched a txp-based blog myself, and I’ve borrowed a few ideas from the structure of your site — and would’ve borrowed the beautiful design if I’d had the skills :)

    How did you make the segues in your feed link directly to the original page instead of your permalink? I can’t figure out how to do that in Textpattern.

  • Glad you like the site. To get the segues to link directly, I had to create my own feed. I’m not using the default Textpattern feed. I setup a section called “feed” and a page called “feed” which then pulls in the right forms to build the feed. It’s a little extra work, but it does give you more control over how your feeds work.

    To get the feed to validate correctly, I used the <txp:mg_setheader /> plugin.

  • Argh, that wasn’t the answer I was hoping for! :)

    I’ve seen a few descriptions of doing something like that around the web, but I was hoping I wouldn’t have to delve into constructing my own feed xml. Might have to, though, since it does make the feed much more useful. Thanks for the tip!
