   better about it. Haha.

 * Yeah, I do know that’s an option. It just seems like it isn’t quite the right
   way to do it. But maybe it is, and I’m just thinking about it in a weird way.
   I’m trying to understand the loop a little better and figure out why, exactly,
   it behaves that way.
 * It doesn’t seem logical, in my mind, that a function asking if a page has a post
   thumbnail should return true on an archive page, when the archive page itself
   obviously doesn’t.

 * It occurred to me that this might be causing something, too. Not sure, but I’m
   trying to be as thorough as possible.
 * I’m on MediaTemple’s GridService hosting, which, for some reasons I don’t totally
   understand, gets along weirdly with SSL in WordPress by default. Basically, by
   default, accessing the site through SSL will cause an endless redirect loop.
 * They have documentation on how to make it work, which I’ve followed. The article
   provides 2 methods to fix this, but I’ve tried both on separate installations
   and the behavior is the same.
 * This is pretty much Greek to me, but from what I can gather, they’re rewriting
   HTTP_HOST to SERVER_NAME. Would that cause anything like this?

 * Not sure if any of this helps, but I enabled Debug Mode and I get this stuff 
   up top:
 * SSL: Yes
    Diff Host: No Subdomain: No Proxy: No Secure External URLs: [ ] Unsecure
   External URLs: [ ]
 * I’m not sure what all of that is supposed to be saying, but I AM on a subdomain.
   Is that causing weirdness?

 * I’m having a problem like this, too. Should this be working at this point?
 * I’m trying to redirect from [https://foo1.example.com/bar1](https://foo1.example.com/bar1)
   to [https://foo2.example.com/bar2](https://foo2.example.com/bar2). They’re both
   on the same SSL certificate, if that makes a difference, and the certificate 
   is for *.example.com.
 * It’s doing some weird things, though. When I use HTTP, it works like I would 
   expect it to. Even when it’s from HTTP to HTTPS. As long as I start with HTTP,
   I get to my end URL, no problem.
 * When I use HTTPS, it takes me to [https://foo1.example.com/bar2](https://foo1.example.com/bar2).
   It takes the directory from the target URL and tries to open it on the domain
   from the original.
 * I’m currently using the Redirection plugin to do this, ([http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirection/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirection/))
   but the same behavior happens when I hard-code the redirect into my functions
   file, so I’m pretty sure it isn’t an issue with that plugin.
 * Any ideas?

 * Yeah, it obviously adds an error class or something, so I could just hide it 
   with CSS. Thanks for the suggestion. I’m gonna poke around some SimplePie-related
   forums to see if anyone has a good solution.
 * It’s weird because both kelapo.com and coconutoilcooking.com (The blog it’s pulling
   the feed from) are hosted on a mediatemple (gs) account. ah well.

 * Seems like I get this error or a similar one pretty often. I’ve been building
   this site, and it seems like it’ll pop up at least once a day. When it does, 
   it goes away as soon as I reload, but it’s still super annoying and rather unsightly
   when it rears its head.
 * Here’s the website:
    [http://www.kelapo.com](http://www.kelapo.com)
 * And here’s a screenshot:

 * I’m using it for the YouTube feed on the left of that, too, but that one doesn’t
   seem to break as often. I’ve only noticed it once.
 * I know this doesn’t directly have anything to do with HungryFeed, but do you 
   have ANY suggestions on how I might remedy this? Is there a way I can tell SimplePie
   to just fallback on the most recent cached version rather than display the error?
   If it were a serious enough error, I’d notice after it didn’t update for a few
   days. (Not just the occasional timeout, which I’d honestly rather not know about)

 * Yeah, I know what you’re saying, although I guess I feel like if a serious error
   were occurring, I’d probably notice it on my own if the feed didn’t update itself
   within a reasonable amount of time.
 * When I got that error, it actually updated properly as soon as I reloaded it,
   so I don’t know what happened that one odd time — it probably just couldn’t connect
   to the server. But in those cases, it would be really nice if it would just fall
   back on the cached version. Then no one needs to know that an error even happened.
 * Obviously, you’d want to see what errors are happening if they’re preventing 
   the feed from updating at all, but maybe that could be an optional debugging 
   parameter built into the shortcode, so that you could just toggle it when you
   need it.
 * Anyway, sounds like you have very little control over it anyway. It was mostly
   wishful thinking. Overall, though, thanks for building a great plugin!

 * Hey there. Excited about the possibilities of HungryFeed. I was trying this out,
   though, and kinda ran into a brick wall. I tried it out with the Apple RSS feed,
   just to try to get a grasp on how it works, and wasn’t having any luck. I don’t
   know if Apple has changed their fields in the 2 weeks since this was posted, 
   but the field I found in the RSS feeds was `albumPrice`, not `'price'`. I tried
   replacing that, but it still didn’t display anything.
 * The feed I actually need to use is YouTube’s, but I was hoping I could figure
   it out if I could figure out the iTunes example. I know I can dig down with CSS
   with your tutorial, but this seems like it would be simpler if I could get it
   to work with the provided fields.
 * An example feed URL is:
    [http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/youtube/uploads](http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/youtube/uploads)
 * As you can see, they provide a ‘thumbnail’ field. It’s used multiple times for
   different thumbnail sizes, but when I add `show_data="1"`, I can see they’re 
   given numbers. (0, 1, 2, 3)
 * I’m just not sure how to target that. Since I couldn’t even get the example working,
   I don’t really know how to hack it.
