A few weeks ago, I started using FeedBurner and posted a blog entry about how I configured Lighttpd to handle that so it didn’t disrupt everyone that subscribes to my RSS feed. This was working great… until the other day.. when I upgraded to Typo trunk. When I did this, I decided to start using mongrel::cluster and pound. Two days later… I’m noticing that my subscriber count has dropped over thousand people in a day… was it something that I said?

A ha! I was handling the redirect with Lighttpd and had replaced it with Pound.

So, I am now delegating this to Apache.

  # Redirect typo feeds to FeedBurner
  RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !^FeedBurner.*$
  RewriteRule /xml/(atom|rss|rss20)/feed.xml$ http://feeds.feedburner.com/RobbyOnRails [R=temp,L]

...and all was well again.

UPDATE

The rewrite condition should be !^FeedBurner.*$ not !^FeedBurner$.

    I restarted Apache, Mongrel and also cleared the cache in Typo, but it still gives me the original Typo feed URL, not the FeedBurner one. What am I missing?

    I fixed the problem. The scapegoat was the ordering of the rewrite rules…

    Your rule didn’t work quite right for me, as the version of typo I’m using (5.0.3) redirects to /articles.rss or .atom when you ask for the feed. See my blog post for how I got it working.

    Crisp Audio and Video Guides: Just like having a piano teacher sitting in front of you, a piano lesson on IT TAKES A THIEF comes with audio and video guides to help you learn the songs you want to play in IT TAKES A THIEF DVD . The beauty of using this method is that you can replay the videos over and over again as many times as you like until you perfect IT TAKES A THIEF DVD COLLECTION yourself. You’d drive your piano teacher nuts if you asked them to do this for you. And you would be lucky to get one example out of them, rather than as many times as you may need.

    There are kinds of uk Tiffany , including the one with beads and another with pearls in the shape of smooth water drops. Wearing Tiffany pendants , the attraction of nature flows slowly. silver pendants is more innovative and quite different from the above traditional ones. The cute beads in different colors decorate the bracelet, making a wonderful version in the Tiffany bracelets .
