Feed not showing up in Twitter
I have added my blog's feed but the posts are not appearing in twitter. The feed is accepted and parced, it's active, and my authentication checks out. From all appearances, it should be working. TwitterFeed says that the feed is active and working. Any ideas?
I’m frustrated

I’m sad

Inappropriate?Please provide details like the exact feed URL you're using, and the twitter account your posting to. Without this, I'm not in any position to suggest anything. -
Inappropriate?It started working, just took a while to get rolling the first time. Didn't realize it wasn't immediate. Cool product! Thank you.
I’m all set now

I think this is related to the link on each item in the feed being identical (http://www.weather.com.au/vic/melbourne/current). If you include the link in the twitter post, twitterfeed will check to see if that item has been posted before, and not post it again. The easy fix would be to uncheck the "include link" option for this feed - if the link is the same on every post, then it's not that useful anyway, and you'd be better off adding this to the twitter account. This also gives twitterfeed a few more characters to post.. -

Inappropriate?matt, one problem I can see is that the friendfeed rss feed doesn't have unique links, so each flickr/twitter/etc.etc. post has the same URL, pointing to the service rather than to the individual item within that service (e.g. all updates to twitter have the link "http://twitter.com/mmelnick").
The way twitterfeed works is that it checks the item links for duplicates, if the item link is included in the post being sent to twitter. This would mean that in the case of the friendfeed feed, unless you post the items to twitter without the link, they won't go out if there are previous posts with that same link. If you turn off posting of links in the settings, then this will not be a problem.
If necessary I can take a look to get that changed on an optional basis (but the checking for duplicate links is actually a feature that had been requested often before, because it avoids posts being re-posted to twitter if only the publish date has changed).
But... I'm not really sure what you're actually trying to do - posting your friendfeed, which includes twitter updates, back to the same twitter account seems a little strange... wouldn't that create lots of duplication, and in the worst case some endless loops where posts get forever thrown between twitter->friendfeed->twitterfeed->back to twitter? -
Inappropriate?My Feed doesnt display on Twitter.
My feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/Langaria
and my twitter user is http://twitter.com/robsainz
Thanks for the feedback.1 Comment Add a comment

Hi Rob - looking at the source of your feed, there are no items in it, so there's nothing for twitterfeed to post (or indeed anything for me to test).

Inappropriate?I am having the same problem. My feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/MsMichett...
It was working at first, but now is not. I am not sure about the other feed I have listed, but please can you check this one first? Thanks.
I’m confused

I just ran it manually, and it worked.. so it looks like this may have been a temporary glitch (it does happen occasionally - but not often - that the twitter API responds with "OK" when posting, but the actual tweet doesn't appear). Please let me know if you continue to see problems with this feed, and I'll take a closer look.

Inappropriate?I set up my Twitter Feed a few hours ago and I have posted several things on http://channel.hexus.net since then but no sign of them on Twitter. Any ideas?
