RSS feed mixing comics

Post by MagooChris »

I was looking at my Fiancee's comic site (While I wait for the password generator to work) and found the rss.xml file and decided now is as good as any time to subscribe to it. The following day I get told there is an update to the feed so I open it to find it telling me about an update to someone else's comic all together... I don't beleive that that is normal?

it's not a high priority, it's not even low priority... it's just that I can't do much else so I thought I'd point it out...

Thanks :)

Well, that's the first I've heard of it.

Query: has she edited the rss file?

I know that it can be customized (but I don't know how) but this is the first time I've heard of a comic providing an rss feed for another comic. I didn't even think it was possible.

We are currently awaiting a password... at best all we have managed to do is post on these forums, read the tutorials and think about how we are going to go about designing the pages...

My work computer has the feed report of the other comic on it... only thing i can guess is that we both signed up on the same day... the feeds had the same date in december...

i was having a similar problem with rss until my comic started updating on the 1st or 2nd,
it's been working fine since then, but just now, when i try to view my comic http://majestic7.comicgenesis.com/ it redirects me to the rolling glen site

I also posted in the other thread about this problem. My website (mimzy.comicgenesis.com) had updated the first installments of my comic just fine, but when I checked to see what Thursday's update looked like on the web I was redirected to matthewfish.comicgenesis.com

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
