Could you test this RSS feed ?

Hi all

I tried to get feedback about this issu on the wp.org forum without success.

Could you test this rss feed on your wordpress 2.7 installation :

yourdomain.com/?cat=XX&feed=rss2&withcomments=1

Just replace yourdomain.com and cat=XX with a cat ID that you know you have some comments in.

Normally, this feed should output the last comments relative to this category. It worked before my upgrades to 2.7. It doesn’t work now, either on single wp or wp mu… Seems to be broken. it leads to a page not found.

Does it works for you ?

I explain the issue here :

Just curious if it works for someone…

Thanks

    Just for reference, if you post on the normal wp.org forums and mention mu, folks there will usually ignore you. I know in the past we’ve suggested to folks to either fudge your post to make it sound like you;re using regular wordpress or don;t mention any platform at all. The regular wp trac is the same.

    Anyway…

    I don’t see mention of this in the codex:

    http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Feeds

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_Feeds

    And the only thing I can find right off is your post on the wpmu forums on the topic:

    http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic.php?id=12144

    I’m at a loss.

    edit: You may even want to leave a comment on that post on Ryan’s blog to see if he has any ideas. Ryan is pretty good about getting back to folks when they ask a question. (At least he was previously during my wp.com days.)

    It’ will not be the first thing that I don’t find in the codex… :slight_smile:

    I found this trick a while ago to display comments grom a specific category and it worked like a charm till the upgrade. I’ll see with Ryan or find something else.

    Well, I have to adapt myself to the mu way of life I guess… Next time, I’ll remember your advice. I’m still an active user of wp single though and I have plenty of single installation to test on.

    That maybe explain why my ticket on the trac is till not assigned yet.

    Well… Anybody have a piece of code to display the comments from a given category ?

    Thanks
