RichardS Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 I have a blog at https://thersr.wordpress.comand I have eventually managed to create an RSS feed, with the help of a tech guy at Wordpress.com using Feedburner that allows my blog entries to appear on RMweb. But it's not perfect. The RSS feed page on RMweb suggests that the feed should begin http:// Anybody using Wordpress will have an https:// feed which is clearly preferred but such feeds do not seem to be recognised on here. So having created a new feed using Feedburner I find that any post I created in my blog after that point appears on RMWeb with all the html code around the text. Posts I made before the Feedburner action are clean, which seems very odd to me. Would really appreciate the view of one of RMWeb's tech guys on this as clearly it's not very satisfactory. Many thanks RichardS Very puzzled too as word-wrap doesn't seem to be working when I write on here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Revolution Mike Posted April 10, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 10, 2015 Is there a reason you are running all your blog through an SSL (https) connection? Does wordpress.com not give you an option to turn it off (or only run parts of the blog through https)? Cheers, Mike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardS Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 Good question Mike. I don't know. I don't recall seeing an option but a lot is hidden. If I understood the tech guy correctly he told me that https was the only option but I will clarify with him. Personally, I am surprised that RMweb won't take https: if indeed that is the problem I have encountered. We shall see. :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is as I thought originally : "There isn't an option to turn off HTTPS I'm afraid. We force all .wordpress.com site URLs to HTTPS. It provides a more secure browsing experience. It looks like it also gives sites a bit of a boost in Google searches" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardS Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 Bumped. Don't the techies of the site read the Forum Rules, Notices, Faults & Help section? Would have expected at least an acknowledgement of the issue. Disappointed. How can issues get resolved? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Ian J. Posted April 19, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 19, 2015 I doubt the IPBoard techs read this forum at all, and with regards to the issue you're having, I wouldn't mind betting this is an IPBoard problem, and not an RMweb one.

Thanks Ian. I suspect you are right but it would be nice for somebody to at least acknowledge the matter, even if there is nothing they can do.
