Hi everyone,
as mentionned before, I have followed some tips given before (by Anca Luca I believe) regarding the private RSS feed.
I have also found Vincent's post on private rss on XWiki.org ( http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/PrivateRssFeeds)
But I still can't make it work ....
I have tried the feed in several reader, and it just won't work.
Or to be more correct, I can subscribe to the feed, and it shows me the latest changes, but it won't refresh ....
I just tried it myself with a 2.3 private wiki and authenticated feed and thunderbird, and it all went very fine: updated the first list of 15 articles (or so), then I created a page in the wiki and I got it in the feed in tb. Now, 1/ what version of wiki are you using? (I guess something under 2.2 if you needed the workaround for private feeds) 2/ in order to be sure it's the feed and not the reader, could you access the feed address in Firefox (paste it in the bar and hit enter) and check that the updates are indeed not there? Also, if you could try to get the feed with curl (http://curl.haxx.se/) and checkout the resulted document it would be great! (as it won't depend on any reader at all and we'd be sure it's the feed not updating and not the client). Also, what do you mean by "won't refresh?" what actions do you take, what's the result you expect, what's the actual result?
BTW, the generic rss feed does not contain the "&basicauth=1 " recommended by Vincent, and I don't know how to change that ....
You can change that in XWIKI (at the top left) -> Administer Wiki -> Presentation, the "HTTP Meta Information" field, at the end of it, you'll see a fragment like: <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Wiki Feed RSS" href="$xwiki.getURL('Main.WebRss', 'view', 'xpage=rdf')" /> <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Blog RSS Feed" href="$xwiki.getURL('Blog.GlobalBlogRss', 'view', 'xpage=plain')" /> you should change it to something like: <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Wiki Feed RSS" href="$xwiki.getURL('Main.WebRss', 'view', 'xpage=rdf&basicauth=1')" /> <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Blog RSS Feed" href="$xwiki.getURL('Blog.GlobalBlogRss', 'view', 'xpage=plain&basicauth=1')" /> so the links to the RSS that your browser notifies you about (the one you see in the browser address bar, not the one in the quick links panel) point to the authenticated feed. If you want to change the ones in the quicklinks panel, you should go to Panels -> QuickLinks, say edit (inline form) and there look for the place where the links are generated (with calls like the above) and add the extra parameter. I hope this all helps, Anca
If I can't make the RSS work, I will end-up with zero adoption here ....
Any help is welcome ...
