Hi,

I'm a bit unclear on the "FeedBurner feed" option of the Syndication Plugin. Well... actually I'm a bit unclear on how to use FeedBurner with s9y.

What I want is to display and link only the FeedBurner-Feed (obviosuly - so I can get useful statistics from them). Obviously, FeedBurner will need access to a feed too (to fetch and republish it).

So, how do I configure the plugin?

Like this?
RSS 2.0 feed: yes
FeedBurner feed: Force
FeedBurner ID: gnegg

and if so, what URL do I tell FeedBurner to fetch?

With a configuration like the above, the RSS 2.0 feed-Link is still displayed but redirects too FeedBurner. This is a good thing, but doesn't this cause FeedBurner to be redirected to itself when it wants to fetch the URL?

Can someone enlighten me?

Thanks!

Philip
PS: Sorry, if this is a FAQ - I never found anything about this though.

Hi!

Exactly you configure it like that. Enabling the "Force FB" option will only allow FeedBurner to call your RSS feed, all other clients will be redirected to the feedburner feed.

You tell feedburner your usual RSS link.

You will need to disable the RSS 2.0 feed display in your syndication plugin to hide that feed address.

Best regards,
Garvin
