Sorry that I'm posting this twice, I wasnt sure where to post it:

not sure what Im doing wrong here:
feed://www.riggedproductions.com/blog/backend/geeklog.rdf

(feed)

full page:
www.riggedproductions.com/blog

Have set the feed to 0 and 1 on both the config file and the syndication page in the admin. Nothing seems to work

also once i figure out that problem, id like to know how to create new feeds that actually work. I had created a new one bobby.rdf in the syndication page, but no rdf file was generated. so i made one, and nothing happened. I was wondering if itd be possible to start a topic section that just posted my videos, but have that unseen on the website and only seen on the RSS seperate feed. not sure if that is possible

Hmm,

First of all: why are you using feed:// I don't think if this is a valid protocol. Firefox refuses to open it. When I change the feed:// to http:// I get a little bit farther, but geeklog.rdf is missing. So, I remove geeklog.rdf from the url and have a look in the map backend, there I see bobby.rdf, maybe you were using this file then? But it was empty.

Did you set your premission right for the directory and the file? It looks like that's the problem. Also check your filename. Make sure it is backend/bobby.rdf or backend/geeklog.rdf. I never put the feeds in the backend directry. I just put them in /.

dimis-site.be

sorry, i have no clue about code, hence all my trouble, I changed the permissions to 775 and nothing happened, i also made sure the correct .rdf file was there

also, the http:// thing doesnt work for me in safari 2.0, i have to put feed?

this might be the problem:

in the config file i had backend/geeklog.rdf as the deafult rss feed. What this has done is update the feed in the hidden /blog directory where the config file is, not the public html that the website is viewed from, if that makes any sense

ive tried this:

// path to your site's default RSS feed
$_CONF['rdf_file'] = $_CONF['path_html'] . '/www/r/riggedproduc/blog/backend/geeklog.rdf';

and this:

// path to your site's default RSS feed
$_CONF['rdf_file'] = $_CONF['path_html'] . '/www/r/riggedproduc/htdocs/blog/backend/geeklog.rdf';

but neither worked, that should be calling it

That path is far too long - $_CONF['path_html'] already contains the /www/... bit.

Change it back to how it was originally:
And don't worry about the "geeklog.rdf", Geeklog will use the file name you specify in Content Syndication instead.

bye, Dirk

And you might want to try setting your permissions to 777 if your on shared hosting.

Yes I am mental.

changed it back. nothing works though, still, the syndication page doesnt create any pages or change anything, running the install scripts test I get:
