You haven't broken yours unless I co-incidentally broke No Minister's at the same time - we're getting old comments too. Ours are running a script at http://giga.ovh.org to get the comments feed, so if yours are too I'd say it's them that has something broken.
I just tried the default comment feeds from blogger, which are stuffed. Seems like it is a blogger issue, and hopefully enough blogs are affected so that it is noticeable and being addressed.
[geek] I don't know what's gone wrong with the blogger feeds but I remember from the old days (when I actually update my blog...) that you can do some need PHP tricks with them
Thanks for the tip David. That is the feed command I use (up to default) but plugging in a time period didn't seem to work. I see from the blogger API that I could also try it with a max value and order parameter. I'll check this later as this is embedded in some javascript with a json callback, and I somehow managed to scramble the whole thing and half the code disappeared when I hit save. Weird, but typical as things are trying to distract me from a work deadline I have. This will have to wait until Tuesday.

ReplyDeleteThis broken comment feed problem is really annoying. It makes our blog look dead.
It's not really dead, it's just sleeping.
