I’ve been researching and struggling with a problem in my Unblogged Bits.\u00a0 I noticed the other day that … not everything I’d Shared in Google Reader was showing up in my nightly post.<\/p>\n

Hmmm.<\/p>\n

Presently what happens is that there’s an Atom feed from Google Reader for my Shared items that goes over to Feedburner to turn it from Atom to RSS (since the standard WordPress RSS engine, Magpie, can’t handle Atom).\u00a0 Then each night, a WP plug-in called “Digest Post<\/a>” sucks in the feed and formats it for my Unblogged Bits post.\u00a0 (Per modified code given here<\/a> and here<\/a>.) Easy-peasy.<\/p>\n

Well, kind of.\u00a0 If I’m Sharing stuff around when it does that (5:30 pm or so), it can sometimes mess it up, leading to duplicate posts.\u00a0 Or it may be that if something hits this blog (a comment, etc.) at that point, it also throws a spanner in the works.\u00a0 Again, leading to dupes.\u00a0 Or, sometimes, a digest with mangled links.\u00a0 Discouraging.<\/p>\n

I’ve looked into alternatives at various<\/a> times<\/a>, but with no luck.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I started poking and prodding into the Rube Goldberg device that is the above setup.\u00a0 I couldn’t find anything in the Digest Post code that would throttle the number of comments.\u00a0 Feedburner only showed the 20, but I couldn’t find anything there to control it.\u00a0 Google Reader doesn’t really have any configurations, either. (The feed<\/a> is cunningly hidden in your Shared page<\/a>, the link to which is cunningly hidden in your Sharing Settings which is cunningly hidden in the Your Stuff item.)<\/p>\n

Well, much searching and reading and looking into still more alternatives later and … huzzah!<\/p>\n

It appears to be Google Reader’s fault.\u00a0 Its RSS feed only carries 20 items at a time.\u00a0 Which means that my Unblogged Bits items can only be 20 items at a time.<\/p>\n

That’s annoying, because I’ve already Shared 22 items today, and several more last night after the above process fired off.<\/p>\n

So … either I need to figure out how to increase the size of Google Reader’s RSS feed (which seems highly unlikely at this point), or maybe figure out a way to make the Digest plug-in execute more than once per day.<\/p>\n

Of, of course, I can just Share less.<\/p>\n

Hrm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
