Hopefully, it'll work. I think it definitely is a bug about it choosing to "die". </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forum-wide-rss-feed-not-working#post-11803 Sun, 04 Nov 2007 07:43:49 +0000 livibetter 11803@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Okay. I finally got it. I think this is a bug of bbPress. </p> <p>line 29-55 in <code>rss.php</code> ensures there is a post found at least, if not then <code>die()</code>.</p> <p>Normally, we see no entries in a feed if there is no posts matched. But bbPress choose to die. You can replace each line of <code>die();</code> with a dummy statement like<br /> <pre><code>1; // die();</code></pre> <p>However, this is no enough. The third statement from bottom:<br /> <pre><code>bb_send_304( $posts[0]-&gt;post_time );</code></pre> <p>Replace it with<br /> <pre><code>if ($posts) bb_send_304( $posts[0]-&gt;post_time );</code></pre> <p>Since bbPress can't find any posts, therefore it has no way to decide that should it send a 304.</p> <p>Can anyone confirm this is a bug about choosing to die? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forum-wide-rss-feed-not-working#post-11798 Sun, 04 Nov 2007 02:30:13 +0000 douglsmith 11798@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I'm not seeing any errors in my logs. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forum-wide-rss-feed-not-working#post-11789 Sat, 03 Nov 2007 06:25:05 +0000 livibetter 11789@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Was there any error entries in your web server's log when someone accessed /forum/rss/? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forum-wide-rss-feed-not-working#post-11788 Sat, 03 Nov 2007 01:39:18 +0000 douglsmith 11788@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I have the same problem on a bbPress install I just set up. The top level feed just returns the text "No input file specified."</p> <p>Lower level feeds work as long as the topics have content. If they have no posts, it returns a blank page, which generates an error in some readers. This won't be a problem as more posts are filled in, but it would be nice to return an empty feed now to avoid the errors. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forum-wide-rss-feed-not-working#post-11786 Sat, 03 Nov 2007 00:54:54 +0000 shaythong 11786@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>For some reason the other RSS feeds throughout the forum seem to work except the forum-wide one.</p> <p><a href="http://urltea.com/1z55" rel="nofollow">http://urltea.com/1z55</a><br /> (I Urltea-ed the link for safety).</p> <p>It just shows a blank nothingness page. I'm using Firefox and I do need to get a forum-wide feed so I can check in on new topics etc... </p>
