Posts + Comments Feed

I've been meaning to post this feed, but keep forgetting to. Thanks goes to Zuly for the needed prodding.

This is Brad's version of this feed, not Jennifer's. Please let me know if you want me to post my version of Jennifer's though.

Why use this feed?

This feed contains your 10 most recent posts as well as your 20 most recent comments. The difference between this and Jennifer's feed is that if someone comes by and comments on a post that's not one of your 10 most recent, your readers will still get to see the comment.

I like Jennifer's feed for sites that get a lot of comments.

Since a bunch of you are using smileys (and my feeds) on your sites, I've decided to post my actual feed (with all of the various plugin entries) and also a vanilla version of the feed.

Vanilla version (you need to have the following plugin installed: MTEntryBodyMore)

Bells and whistles version (you need to have the following plugins installed: MTMacros, ResolveURLs, MTEntryBodyMore)

In either case, you'll need to change a few things to make the feed work for your site:

<dc:creator>Your name here</dc:creator> [Your name]

<comments><$MTBlogArchiveURL$><$MTCommentEntryID pad="1"$>.php#comments</comments> [The file extension used on your blog pages]
