RSS for Recently added games is broken

[neoen]

Recently added new AGS game was not included in RSS feed.

Thanks, this seems to have happened as a result of the server maintenance. I'm looking into it.

What's the correct URL to the RSS feed?

I started subscribing to http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/gamesrss.php at some point last year. But around May this year, that RSS feed went dead.

After a while I started wondering why there hadn't been new games in a while, so I checked the website and found that apparently, the RSS feed had a new URL: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/gamesrss.php . Okay, I started subscribing to that.

In July, starting with "FluxWorld" July 9th, suddenly every game came in on the www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk feed again, and none on the www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk feed. So the dead feed was now alive, and the other feed was now dead.

And since July 27th, starting with "Crash! Evade! Destroy!", BOTH feeds have been working. Of course, now that I subscribe to both of them because I have no idea which of them really is the active one, that means I recieve all reports on new games two times.

It's not very important, so don't cancel any trips to France to fix it (have a splendid Mittens, by the way), but having two RSS feeds that sometimes fulfill each other and other times give the same information two times strikes me as somewhat odd, and I would love to be able to stop subscribing to one of them without that making me lose information.

www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk redirects to www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk, at least my config files tell me this.

The official feed would be http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/gamesrss.php
Please remove www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk from your bookmarks/subscriptions as I'll likely disable it soonâ,,¢.

RSS does not work once again. Last 2 games are not included in RSS :-(

Typical! This had to happen the only time you'll ever see two Screen 7 games in the space of 2 weeks.

GAH!

I'm still utterly and terribly confused why everyone is saying that www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk redirects to www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk and that the RSS feed at www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk wasn't working so they should use the feed at www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk but if www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk goes down they can always just go to www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk which is where www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk redirects to anyway...

:o

What?

[m0ds]

Haha!! There was some www1 going on yesterday, or it might've been www2...I can't remember...but with any luck it wasn't ww3

Ah yes thanks, that was because of the server move, I've now fixed it.

Haha

This is because after moving the servers once everything is back on the correct URL, I run a find & replace on the database so that any links that are linking to a thread on the wrong URL (like new.adventuregamestudio.co.uk or www1.adventuregamestudio.co.uk) are pointed back to the right place.

This does mean that when you view old posts that have had the find & replace run on them, they don't make a lot of sense!

Thank you for making my day CJ. That just cracks me up.


Ontopic, I never knew there was a RSS feed. Coolio.

I figured it was something like that but I still find when looking through old threads links to agsforums.com, americangirlscouts.org/bbc.com, etc. so I wasn't aware that you did this.
