  • RSS feed update: when does slinkset get posts?

    Is there some way to manually refresh an RSS feed for new content submissions?

    Doing a quicker refresh for newly added feeds would be nice (especially for newly created slinksets...).

    Right now we should be checking feeds every 3 hours or so, and there is currently no way to manually refresh.

    I always get a Feed Addition Failed. Why? I put in the feed correctly.

            Okay. feed://www.macrumors.com/macrumors.xml should now work. Sorry about that; we had a bug with URLs beginning with feed://

            As for the other URL, unfortunately right now you need to enter the URL of the feed directly. It is on our list to automatically discover feed URLs from HTML pages, but we haven't gotten to it yet.

    Any update on this. Would be much more useful if the feeds updated more often than once every three hours.
