Yet another post about "Recent Blog" on DP

    I know some of you are tired of hearing about these, but I am tired of giving myself a headache :p I'm at the point of throwing my monitor around the room if this keeps up.

    Now, I had my RSS feed up about 2-3 weeks ago. It was fine. It was updating and everything was great! Well, then came feedburner. It looked great. (It **IS** great) I registered at the website then I installed the "FeedBurner Burner Smith" Plugin for Wordpress and it works pretty well.

    Here lies the problem. My old RSS feed's do not work through DP (I assume because they are redirected to the feedburner feed url). The feeds which feedburner displays (in my case: http://feeds.feedburner.com/thinkblogger/jQeP), does not update my recent post option on DP. I have been checking back on it every day for the last 2 weeks.

    What am I doing wrong? (I apologize if this takes about 2 seconds for someone to answer). I assumed that once the feedburner feed was in, I could use that.

    Oddly enough, I thought I tried that and it didnt work. It seems to be working now. Maybe it conflicted with my feedburner plugin (which was also activated? - now deactivated). Though I may have had ?feed=rss instead of rss2. Aswell as, a different syntax which I thought worked. /feed/atom and /feed.

    Thanks for the really quick fix :p
