I haven't been able to get the blog feed to work here of late.  This is the error I get. 

A semi colon character was expected.

hmmm… we presume you mean the global feed for all blogs. Or, just this primary Tripawds blog? Or guessing from the post title throwing the error, is it the Tripawds Downloads blog rss feed? Where did you pick up the feed? Please reply with the feed link and reader you use..

Thanks for the info above. We've edited the post title and would like to know if it made a difference.

I hate when people don't tell you where the problem is!   It's fixed, thank you!

I hope you didnt spend 20 minutes trying to figure where the error was because I could supply a link!

Uhh… so where is it? I presume because it is now fixed, the issue was with the global posts feed. But we'd still love to know where you picked up the link.

Sure enough, we gotta remember that global posts feed sometimes has issues with HTML entities in post titles. Thanks again for the reminder! :-)

It's broke again…dead link 

Reference to undefined entity 'hellip'.
 Line: 18 Character: 47

    <title>I know I have already posted today&hellip;</title>

 

It's my easy access into the blog world.  By the way, can it be adjusted to more than 25 entries?   If you skip a day or two, you don't see the updated entries.  Just askin….

This is an ongoing struggle with the developers of our Global Posts Feed plugin. The feed breaks in some readers when authors use HTML entities in their post title. It is beyond our realm of expertise, and we updgrade the feed plugin frequently whenever updates become available. For now, we must rely on these updates in hopes that one will fix the issue for good. Once the troubled post gets bumped down far enough, the feed comes back to life.

What rss reader do you use? And have you tried any others? If you have some "favorite" blogs you should be able to subscribe to the individual feeds without any problem.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for the update. Just know that we are aware of it and working on it. In the meantime, please feel free to inform bloggers to keep titles "clean" …

 In the meantime, please feel free to inform bloggers to keep titles "clean" …

 

SURE!   "I'm sorry about your dog, but can you keep your title clean of errors so I'm not inconvenienced!???"

See how many will friend me, then!sad

Yup, that's the link to the feed all right. The question remains, what news reader do you use? How do you receive the feed? The more info I can give the developers, the better chance they may have of fxing the issue for all readers.

Oh sorry, you Macaroni user!

 

Internet Explorer does it for you automatically – so you don't need a reader.   You just click the link and Voila!
