I'm using Feedly to track the posting feeds of various Paizo staff, such as for example Vic Wertz's feed which is linked here as http://paizo.com/people/VicWertz&xml=atom.

However, on or around February 23 something changed in the generation of these feeds, so that they are no longer recognized by Feedly and can no longer tracked in that way. I have contacted Feedly customer services about this, but it seems the the problem is on Paizo's side. They sent me a validator link that shows that the feed is not considered a valid feed:

https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpaizo.com%2Fpeople %2FVicWertz%26xml%3Datom

Would it be possible to restore the valitdity of the feeds so they can once again be tracked by Feedly?

Should be fixed shortly.

Awesome.


I've been having the same trouble, was planning on making a post about it. Thanks for fixing it!

I tried to ad another feed to my Feedly today (http://paizo.com/people/LizCourts&xml=atom), but once agaion the feed is not recognized. Putting it through the validator gives errors:

https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpaizo.com%2Fpeople %2FLizCourts%26xml%3Datom

Could you please check if there might still be something missing?

I'm having the same problem - none of the threads I want to add will work.

For example:

http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2tkby?PH-Dungeons-Eyes-of-the-Lich-Queen

http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2tkdr?PH-Dungeons-5e-Swords-of-the-Realms-Campa ign

http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2tkds?PH-Dungeons-Running-LA-Shadowrun-Campaign

(I do like my Campaign Journals ;D )

It looks like the service that serves most of the rss feeds was having some problems. I gave it a kick and it should be working now. Let me know if you are still having problems.

That seems to have worked - well kicked, thanks!

Still not working for me, the feeds are not refreshed in Feedly, probably because they are not well-formed.

See https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpaizo.com%2Fpeople %2FVicWertz%26xml%3Datom.

I did get some different looking feed URLs, though, yesterday, from one or two profiles, some longish WebObjects-looking path, not the paizo.com/people/name?xml=atom style I get now. Maybe different servers with different code and the balancer sends me to the wrong one?

that's possible though not sure how others are doing. I'll run it through a check tomorrow to see how the RSS feeds stack up to a well formed linter.

Hi again - I'm having similar problems, for example with:

https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpaizo.com%2Fthread s%2Frzs2tns9%26xml%3Datom%3FWhat-are-the-best-adventures-with-parties

Fingers crossed :)

Silver Crusade System Administrator

Yup. That was my fault. I got wrapped up in a bunch of things and forgot to turn them back on yesterday. Should all be fine now.

Thanks a million - all working nicely :-)
