Bloglet problems
-
I am having trouble getting Bloglet (www.Bloglet.com) to work properly with WP. Has anyone had it running successfully, and if so, what did you use for settings?
-
My file is wp-rss2.php…and I did use the RSS option. I get an error every time. Does that little “2” make a difference?
Peace,
~S~its a totally different version mate!
AnonymousI have tried using the RSS option and pointing it toward the wp-rss.php file but I get the following: ERROR: The underlying connection was closed: The remote name could not be resolved. Any suggestions? I’m a newbie at wordpress.
URL please…
I meant to come back to let you know my bloglet problem is solved. It was a matter of that little number 2. Works like a charm now.
I can’t get mine to work! Here’s the info I entered into bloglet:
weblog title: Megiddo
weblog url: http://blog.meg-tech.com
server: http://blog.meg-tech.com/wp-rss.php
weblog type: RSSBut when I test it, it gives me this:
ERROR: The underlying connection was closed: The server committed an HTTP protocol violation.And when I tested it with a feed validator ( http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http://blog.meg-tech.com/wp-rss.php ), it says that it’s a valid feed! What’s the problem here?
Oh, I have no hacks on as well
Uhm I know the fix for this … give me a second to search for it. I had to make ac hange to wp-rss.php to get it to work (NewsGator was kicking up a fuss with the feed even though it “validated”)
[EDIT] Check out this site http://www.kbcafe.com/rss/?guid=20041102095814 and read near the bottom about the Last-Modified bit.
At the moment it’s more than likely got a space in it when it needs a -.
Let me know if this helps?
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Cool I take it it worked then?
Yep
This worked for me under 1.5
weblog title: (name of your site)
weblog url: (url of your site)
weblog id: (leave blank)
username: (leave blank)
password: (leave blank)
server: (yourblog.com/feed/rss)
weblog type: (RSS)
enabled (check)
hide this blog (uncheck)
email setting (set to your liking)Bobby2222, that worked.
I’ve read through and followed the information on this thread, which I see is about a year old. So perhaps there is more up to date information. I see nothing in codex about Bloglet.
So in following Bobby2222’s suggestion above, I used the server url as jmviews.com/feed/rss However, in looking at the files in my directory, the path would appear to be more correct as jmviews.com/wp-feed.php or jmviews.com/wp-rss.php or jmviews.com/wp-rss2.php
I’ve tried to carry out the last-modified fix, but do not find the word “modified” in the php file.
Any ideas?
I have heard several reports recently that Bloglet is broken and the owner isn’t responding to any emails inquiring about the situation. You may be better off using a WordPress plugin to manage email subscriptions, like Skippy’s Subscribe2: http://www.skippy.net/blog/category/wordpress/plugins/subscribe2/
Thanks, Macmanx,
I did try subscribe2, put it on both my blogs only to find out afterward that it only works when entries are manually posted. I set all my posts for scheduled sends. Too bad, it’s a nice little plugin.
Any other ideas?
