How to check if the hub is getting pinged ?

    Is there a way to check if the default hubs are receiving pings from my blog ? I’m trying to get Flipboard to update my RSS feed more frequently but even after installing this plugin successfully, it still takes more than an hour after I publish new posts before Flipboard picks them up.

    Flipboard’s RSS specs say that they use the Superfeedr hub.

    My blog is set up as a private blog but the RSS feed is NOT disabled as I need to use it to publish to Flipboard.

    thanks !

    Chris,

    Julien from Superfeedr here.
    Have you enabled PubSubHubbub on your feed? (feel free to share the feed url here or by email directly julien@superfeedr.com).

    You then have to wait for Flipboard to actually subscribe to the content thru the hub. It may take a couple days.

    Thanks,

    Hi Julien,

    Thanks for getting back to me ! I’ve installed your plugin and have activated it. I didn’t make any changes to the default hubs. Is there something else I need to do to activate it ?

    I notice that I have these lines in my feed :

    <atom:link rel=”hub” href=”http://pubsubhubbub.appspot.com”/&gt;
    <atom:link rel=”hub” href=”http://pubsubhubbub.superfeedr.com”/&gt;

    thanks !

    Well, this is right… so you have to wait for Flipboard to subscribe to the feed…. If you shared the url, I could tell you if that’s already the case (or not!)

    Thanks again, Julien. Let me email you the feed URL privately. It’s a private family blog, hence I didn’t want to share the link here. I really appreciate you looking into this.
