Read RSS feeds from pinboard #48

Closed ats closed 6 years ago

ats commented 6 years ago

Aperture won't find a feed generated by a URL such as, e.g., http://feeds.pinboard.in/rss/u:ats/. If I save that feed to a pinboard.rss file at my web server, then it can find, parse, and add it to a channel.

Can Aperture be updated to find and parse the file served by the original URL?

Aperture does let you paste in a RSS URL directly to subscribe to it.

It looks like it was getting tripped up on the unusual contents of that feed. I've just pushed an update so it should recognize that now.

thanks! I wondered if there was something unusual about that feed. It worked when testing with a saved file generated from the feed, but didn't seem to recognize it as an RSS URL when pasting in the original feed address. I don't think I described that clearly, originally -- so thanks for taking a look so quickly!
