Is it Possible to Install Feed Burner with Your Blog?

I have two questions. I'm trying to install Feed Burner with my Serendipity Blog and I keep getting a 500 Internal Server error, it can't seem to the find the URL. My second question is, how do you change the font color in Serendipity from the Blue/Grey text to White? A White font stands out better from the Background of my Blog and it is in line with the overall design of my site.

Hi!

Yes, you can simply enable the feedburner option in the syndication plugin.

Fonts are changed through the style.css CSS stylesheet of your current template.

I've been trying to install plug ins for the last 24 hours but when I look at the blog they are not showing. Under the admin section is shows the plug ins are installed but when I view the blog I see none of the things that I thought were installed. Also, how to I access the CSS style sheet for my template?

Hi!

You can use drag & drop to move sidebar plugins from one side to the other. Maybe you are using a template that has no right sidebar, but are installing plugins to the right side. You would then need to mve them to the left side and click on save.

The CSS is inside the file "style.css" of the directory of your current template.

I also try to use feedburner.

In fact I want my main RSS feed redirect to feedburner.

I enable the syndication plugin, check "yes" box for feedburner, enter the mad feedburner ID and ...
...and nothing happens, nor in the blog sidebar nor in the firefox adress bar.

Is anything wrong with my installation ?

Hi!

Can you show a screenshot of your syndication plugin settings?

Hi!

Okay, the problem is, it seems feedburner has changed their image URLs.

Your sidebar oplugin tries to access:

http://feeds.feedburner.com/~fc/cqtd03a ... 444&anim=0

which is the default. Don't really know which image instead to pic -- you might want to enter a URL in your sidebar plugin location for "Feedburner Image" so that a picture can be displayed... and also enter a title/description there, so when no pictures is displayed, users get something there :)

HTH,
GArvin

Thanx, It works for the syndication plugin sidebar.

But is there any way to redirect the "/index.php?/feeds/index.rss2" feed to feedburner ?

Hi!

Yes, that's what the "FORCE" option is for in the configuration of the plugin :)
