Tweaking feed titles and duplicate deletion
Hello,
I would like to suggest you two things if they have not been done before ...
1. Could it be possible in a future version of the service to have the ability to tweak the feed titles ?
2. Taking a look at my feed subscribed list I saw I subscribed several times to the same" feed. Could it be possible to add a duplicate deletion mechanism in order to avoid this ?
Thanks !

Hey Claude!
#1 is on the list for our next release.
As for #2, I would encourage you to sign up for a free account if you have not already. From your account dashboard, your feeds are ordered alphabetically and it should be quite easy to see any duplicates. Hopefully that's a quick fix for now. Thanks!
I’m happy

Nick,
1. Thanks !
2. Absolutely right but detecting them and offering a way to suppress duplicates would be coold ... too ! -
Inappropriate?And one thing to add... Multiple feeds with the same name does not necessarily means duplicates. I already encountered in the past a situation where different feeds have the same name so in order to detect and supppress duplicates it would be necessary to compare them by name and URL...

Inappropriate?Hey Claude,
Hopefully the fact that you will be able to edit the feed title in the next release will fix any issues you may encounter with duplicate feed names. Thanks!
I’m happy
-
Inappropriate?Probably, but as the problem could also be with URL as I previously said, duplicates should be a potential problem to consider even if it could happen very rarely...
-
Inappropriate?Just another though...
Something I just experimented ...
Concerning possible duplicates insertion : before inserting a feed in our list could it be possible to watch if it is not already there.
In fact, I succeeded without complain in adding three times the same url feed to my FMI catalog... -
Inappropriate?Hey Claude,
That validation should already exist. If you attempt to subscribe to the exact same feed from a website, you should get a screen like this:

Is that not the case for you? If so, please provide the feed address and we can test it out. Thanks!
I’m confident
-
Inappropriate?Nick,
Sorry but as I'm blind I can not see the screenshot you sent me.
But I must tel you that each time I inserted an url already present in my Feed My Inbox list I don't remember having received any "warning"... -
Inappropriate?Sorry you are unable to view the screenshot, Claude. The error says "You have already subscribed to that feed" after I attempt to subscribe to a feed I am already subscribed to. That should be the error you receive as well. Thanks!
I’m happy
-
Inappropriate?Confirmed, I was unable to reproduce the scenario I encountered before ... So let's go and see ...
