feeds just started to not work correctly

I have two sections … main article section and a pics section. When I first started setting up this site, the feed was working correctly… domainname.com/rss would spit out a feed for both sections. Now its only spitting out a feed for articles.

I do have syndicate turned on for the pics sections. its working correctly, if I create a txp link to that sections RSS. Its just that after adding more content to the site, it messed up the feed.

Here’s the site

Re: feeds just started to not work correctly

ok… I “think” i know whats going on…

do sticky posts show up in the RSS? I think that might be the problem.

No. Sticky posts are those you specifically don’t want to show up in normal article browsing, including feeds.

Re: feeds just started to not work correctly

I was afraid of that…

How do I go about showing posts from one section and posts from another section on the home page? I’m using article_custom to display my pics. but if I try to do that for articles, it doesnt handle excerpts correctly.

I’m thinking maybe conditional tags ??? I can never get a good enough grasp on conditional languages (if… then…) :) so I dont really know if thats the direction I need to head.

Re: feeds just started to not work correctly

Thanks for the links ZEM… I had read them before but just couldnt get things to click. But finally a lightbulb went off and I figured everything out! :)

So I have everything, articles and pics, being included in RSS and have them seperated out, displaying how I want them.

Thanks again.
