Sorry, replied to the other thread, didn't see there was more info here..

the feeds you mention are under a Blogger OpenID (martinharrigan.blogspot.com), so you should in theory be able to sign in via "Sign In with OpenID" -> "Blogger".

This almost certainly means you are logging in with an account that's different from the one you used originally to set up the feed. You could try http://bit.ly/openidreminder if you set up the feeds quite a while ago - if that doesn't work for you, could you let us know the twitter account you're posting to?

A comment on the question "Tweets being posted with URL being "Error"" in twitterfeed:

I think it's caused by the extra line breaks/whitespace inside the "link " tags in the feed. We'll try and work around this in the next update, but in the short term, if you have control over the feed creation, it could be fixed by removing these extra linebreaks inside the link tags. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 22:40

A comment on the question ""include item link" box missing?" in twitterfeed:

I'm not 100% sure, but you could try feedburner or yahoo pipes (pipes lets you edit all sort of feed content) in the short term. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 22:29

Mario Menti replied on December 09, 2009 22:27 to the problem "Twitterfeed not twittering anymore" in twitterfeed:

We are switching to a new backend supporting realtime notifications using pubsubhubbub, and we found that some feeds (quite often feedburner feeds) for some reason aren't sending us notifications - if this is the case then we switch these feeds back to the older backend until we know the reason. If you let me know the feed URL and/or the twitter account you're posting to I can take a closer look.

A comment on the question "Feeds not loading into Twitter" in twitterfeed:

If you let me know the feed URL or twitter account I can try and take a closer look - we did have an outage with one our queue processing machines yesterday which caused delays and dropped notifications for some feeds. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:59

A comment on the problem "Blog Updates Not Feeding Into Twitter" in twitterfeed:

We had an issue with some notifications being dropped, and I can see that this happened to one of yours - going forward this is fixed now, so new posts should go through, but if the problem persists please let me know. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:56

A comment on the problem "Blog Updates Not Feeding Into Twitter" in twitterfeed:

For some reason we haven't received any new post notifications from pubsubhubbub from this feed, even though in theory it should support it - for now I've set the feed back to polled until we know more about the issue. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:54

A comment on the problem "Blog Updates Not Feeding Into Twitter" in twitterfeed:

We had an issue yesterday but this should have been fixed already - if the issues persist please let me know. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:52

We had a outage with one of our feed processing servers yesterday, but please let me know if the problem persists. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:46

A comment on the question "openid login failed" in twitterfeed:

We're not aware of any general issues with logging with via Blogger OpenIDs - if the problem persists and you continue to be unable to login with your blogger OpenID, you could create a new account and let us know the details so we could switch any existing feeds to that new account. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:43

A comment on the problem "Bad Gateway still happening on just one feed 502" in twitterfeed:

Yes, that's what it did in the hope that notifications should start to come in. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:40

A comment on the question "Feeds not loading into Twitter" in twitterfeed:

We had an issue with some dropped pubsubhubbub notifications, and it seems 2 of yours were affected by this. Apologies for this, the problem has been fixed now so going forward notifications of new posts should come through. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:39

A comment on the question "Feeds not loading into Twitter" in twitterfeed:

Our requests to your feeds all seem to time out:
curl -v "http://www.stink-eye.net/forum/index...."
* About to connect() to www.stink-eye.net port 80
* Trying 205.178.145.65...

Is it possible that you are blocking IP addresses - at least at the moment all request from our servers that I'm trying manually all time out. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:35

A comment on the question "Feeds not loading into Twitter" in twitterfeed:

The problem in your case is that the item links are the same on every item, they all point to "http://www.stodgyclothes.com/blog.html". twitterfee checks item links in an attempt to minimise posting duplicate/old content, so you would either have to make the links unique (usually they point to the actual item in the blog, rather than the overall site), or else uncheck the "Post link" checkbox in the "advanced settings" - you could then shorten your URL manually and enter it in the "post suffix" field. That way we won't check it, but just append the static text to each tweet. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:31

A comment on the question "Feeds not loading into Twitter" in twitterfeed:

I've looked at both your feeds, but neither of them seem to contain any new items since October, unless I'm missing something? – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:24

A comment on the problem "Discovery failed for OpenID" in twitterfeed:

Could you send us a message on twitter from @twfeed from the twitter account your feed is posting to (to confirm that you own the account), and we can then remove the feed(s). – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:15

A comment on the problem "Problems publishing feed to FB page" in twitterfeed:

Thanks for the additional info, we'll try and investigate this further. – Mario Menti, on December 09, 2009 10:13

Mario Menti replied on December 09, 2009 10:12 to the question "Title shows up, but not links" in twitterfeed:

I think the problem may be related to the links in the items not being absolute, so the URL shortening fails. For example, an item link in your feed may say

href="/quick-counters/2009/12/08/26-next-on-sportscenter-the-us-world-cup-bid"

.. so doesn't contain the http://domain.. etc information. Is this something you can change in the feed creation/setup.
