vlogolution's dashboard

Thanks Trevor, that seemed to solved it!! My site also had another hash which I was using (bd15865886ac392d22c2a74a74a89f47). When I switched to the one you gave me and emptied the postrank table, it updated to the new numbers. One thing you might want to check out though looking at the feed link you gave me (http://www.postrank.com/feed/00a742ae...) is that there are double entries popping up on the list. Also, may not be any cause for concern but a new blog post released over a half day ago isn't showing yet either. – vlogolution, on May 08, 2009 20:39

Just wanted to add that even though it is working now, I'm also still showing lots of 1's as well.

The development one that uses feed_hash[] now seems to work! Some posts are back to showing 1.0 again, but that's probably because there seem to be several unlinked copies of the same post in your database across different feed hashes, and your servers were updating different versions of the same link. I assume it'll now properly re-adjust over time. Thanks! – vlogolution, on May 07, 2009 11:59

It didn't work again for me, until I once again removed the "feed_id[]=$feed_id" section that is... – vlogolution, on May 06, 2009 04:45

Ilya, after I saw your curl statement worked for one of my vlogolution.com site links, I went down into the wp-postrank.php code to see what was going on, and I got it working with a simple modification. While your curl works perfectly, the one in the php code also passes a feed id:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,"{$links}feed_id[]=$feed_id");

A few things here. feed_id[] passes in an invalid number which causes the json to return:
{ "error": "Invalid Feed IDs (921502)" }

So I tried directly passing in the feed hash instead (which WAS correctly shown on the config screen by the way), and that returned:
{ "error": "Invalid Feed IDs (bd15865886ac392d22c2a74a74a89f47)" }

So how did I solve the problem? Change "{$links}feed_id[]=$feed_id" to "{$links}", and it'll work perfectly. Basically, it seems that no feed id is required at all. Just make sure to empty the wp_postrank table so the plugin will try to fetch the rankings again. – vlogolution, on April 24, 2009 12:53

After you mentioned the database, I looked in the _postrank table and id did have postranks of 0.0 set for all posts. I emptied out the table to see what would happen after I revisited the admin post page. Still all 0.0 - and it restored all the 0.0's back into the database again too! On a separate note, any update on why my other feeds still haven't hashed yet? – vlogolution, on April 09, 2009 23:11

I'm having this problem in wordpress too Ilya (all 0.0 PostRanks, even though the hash is set). In addition, still having the problem with the other feeds (and main feed) still not registering yet. I was thinking this morning maybe it had to do with the site link in the feed, so I changed the <link /> to be unique between the feeds (it was showing the same before). I also changed it for the one that did hash (http://feeds2.feedburner.com/hotroast). Didn't seem to make a difference either though.

Another update - those other feeds still haven't registered with postrank.

The feeds still didn't register yet. I was thinking this morning maybe it had to do with the site link in the feed, so I changed the <link /> to be unique between the feeds (it was showing the same before). Perhaps that will make a difference? I also changed it for the one that did hash (http://feeds2.feedburner.com/hotroast). – vlogolution, on April 08, 2009 14:36

Thanks for your response Ilya. One of the feeds did finally hash (http://feeds2.feedburner.com/hotroast). However the following have yet to show up:

http://feeds2.feedburner.com/passmeth...
http://feeds2.feedburner.com/vlogolution

Per your response, I created the /vlogolution site-wide feed a little while ago to put in as the primary WP feed (though still hasn't hashed yet either). Another question, should we also be registering the direct (non-feedburner) feeds with PostRank as well? Is there any advantage/disadvantage you're aware of either way? I can say I did try putting in the direct links as well and they haven't shown up yet either (ie http://www.vlogolution.com/hot/feed).

Thanks!
