Comments on: Font Panel Sucks the Life Out of Interface Builder http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/37/font-panel-sucks-the-life-out-of-interface-builder Mac & Technology Writings by Daniel Jalkut Wed, 7 Jan 2009 03:39:36 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: Jeff http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/37/font-panel-sucks-the-life-out-of-interface-builder/comment-page-1#comment-147 Jeff Thu, 13 Oct 2005 18:49:50 +0000 http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/?p=37#comment-147 I'm perplexed too. Both URLs now show all of the (currently seven) comments. Originally, the URL without "comments-" wouldn't update after the first comment, and the URL with "comments-" wouldn't update after the first four comments. I’m perplexed too.

At first I observed that without the "comments-" part, it didn't seem to work with NetNewsWire (it gave me a feed for the entire blog, instead). Now it seems to work fine, even without the "comments-" part. I'm perplexed. I'm about to update to the latest WP, which still has the URL without the "comments-" part, so I'm going to assume that is correct. Hmm - now I’m not sure there is a problem with that link.

I'm assuming you mean the "RSS 2.0" link in the paragraph explaining "You can follow any responses..." -- it lies! I've fixed it in my copy of WordPress (edited the comments_rss function in feed-functions.php in case anybody is interested). You should be able to click the link now and get the expected behavior. I will check to see if the latest WordPress release still has the bug and report it if it's still there. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Daniel Jeff - I didn’t even notice that link! I’m assuming you mean the “RSS 2.0″ link in the paragraph explaining “You can follow any responses…” — it lies!

Maybe there's a bug in WordPress, because you'd think that the link appearing right above the responses should contain the "comments-" tag. Thanks, the new URL works fine.

I haven't looked too carefully at it, but notice the links at the bottom of this page allowing for both "Entries" and "Comments" RSS feeds. I've taken a cue from the blunt Comments link (which produces a feed for the whole blog), and adjusted your URL to include the comments bit: http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/?feed=comments-rss2&p=37 Which seems to work. I hadn't really looked into what the feed options are for the site since (as the administrator) it just emails me when anything happens. As a blog reader, though, I really appreciate it when a site has an easy way to subscribe to comments for a particular entry, so I'm going to look into getting an automatic link to appear on entries that will generated a feed like the one above.
