I don't really get how postrank works since the updates.
Back when you guys were just AideRSS, I had added a bunch of feeds to my account and customised the 'good/better/best' settings for each feed, and then I could subscribe my reader (google) to a single feed that represented the aggregated and filtered contents of all of those feeds. This all worked great for me. But since you changed to 'PostRank' the feeds stopped working so I came to try and fix things up, and for the life of me I can't figure out how to accomplish the same result as before. It is not helped by the way it seems your updates seem to have been released hastily before you even had time to finish updating your FAQs, which are full of descriptions and screenshots of things that don't exist. But hey, it's a free service and I understand.
Anyway, how exactly do I get a single postranked feed of all the stuff in my subscribed feeds now? I have got all my feeds and filter levels setup in PostRank. And I have discovered the link on my 'topics' page that is 'EvilPuppetMaster's Topic' and subscribed to that. But it doesn't seem quite right. It is missing a lot of stuff that I know should be there. Some of my feeds don't have any 'topic' set, does that mean they aren't appearing in my 'topic' feed? I'm not really interested in 'topics' anyway. I just want everything interesting from all my feeds according to their postrank score. And not limited to some arbitrary cutoff. Just everything that I haven't read yet. Where do I get a feed of that? Am I missing the point, should I be doing something different?

Inappropriate?Hello -- Everything you're looking to do is still possible, so we'd have to take a look at your account/subscribed feeds to see what might not be working. There are a variety of ways to use topics, but what you describe -- essentially as an aggregator of what you're interested in (just giving a label to that collection) is certainly one way.
Can you email me the email address associated with your account? (melanie@aiderss.com) Figuring out why the feeds/filtering isn't working would be the first step. After that, getting a single, aggregated feed of all the stuff you want to follow is quite simple. -
