Commentlink in Akregator 3.5.9 lead to blank page

Post by onli »

Hi
I don't really know if this is a serendipity-bug or a Bug in Akregator (the KDE RSS-Reader). Akregator shows links to comments, but they lead to a blank site. For example, when reading this post, in Akregator http://www.onli-blogging.de/wfwcomment.php?cid=615 is the comment link, and obviously that's not a working one.
This behaviour don't exist in KDE 4 as the new Akregator shows no comment-link at all.

This is based upon the report of a trustworthy reader, so debugging it won't be totally easy. Why does a link to a blank page exist at all?

Hi!

This is a Bug in Akregator. The link cmoes from the "wfw:comment" namespace XML item, which is ONLY meant for API-made comments, not a link to be clicked on. The link to click on for comments is <comments>.

Regards,
Garvin
