Full Version: Is myBB blocking feedburner?

Hello.

I'm running a fairly new directory that advertises forums powered by myBB. What I'm attempting to do is use feedburner to capture the most recent posts here at the myBB mainsite; in turn, I'm using feedburner to display the titles of the 15 newest threads. However, for some reason, feedburner is unable to capture RSS from myBB. I'm just wondering if myBB is blocking feedburner.

Thanks!
Why would MyBB block feedburner? The most probable cause is that you didn't setup Feedburner correctly, but don't trust me, I know nothing of RSS feeds (atleast not much)

I'm just going thru a process of elimination here..

Url that I'm using @ feedburner :: http://community.mybboard.net/syndication.php?limit=15

Mybb doesn't seem to have perfected their RSS feeds yet. They can be tricky with characters.

Try that atom feed to see if that takes at feedburner.


Also I believe short tags for php needs to be shut off sometimes..my server farted with some xml until I removed short tags.

Atom is working great! Thanks!
