I need help. Kind of a complicated explanation, but I'll give it a
shot.

I have a Blogger blog that is hosted by Blogger. However, I bought my
own domain name so I now have Blogger automatically redirect to my new
name. When I leave comments on other blogs that use Comment Luv, my
"last post" won't show up unless I format my blog name in this EXACT
format. If I use any other version (meaning without the "http", the
"www" or "blogspot") it won't work.

Here's what I have to enter: http://www.viewfromthecloud.blogspot.com
- even though my actual domain name is www.viewfromthecloud.com

Here's some facts about how my blog is set up.

My Blogger post feed redirect URL is: http://feeds.feedburner.com/ViewFromTheCloud

My Feedburner feed details are:
Feed Title: View From The Cloud
Original Feed: http://viewfromthecloud.blogspot.com/atom.xml
Feed Address: http://feeds.feedburner.com/ViewFromTheCloud

If anyone can see where I have something set up wrong, please let me
know.

I'm also having problems where my feeds are not showing up on Humor-
Blogs.com, so I'm thinking these two issues might be related.

Thank you!!!

Hi,

The use of atom.xml is obsolete. Please resolve the issue by changing
the original feed to http://www.viewfromthecloud.com/feeds/posts/default

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try this. Will this cause any ill side
effects I should be aware of (like my subscribers losing my feed for
example)? And will it take effect immediately or will it need a day or
two?

The change will take effect immediately. As long as the FeedBurner
feed URL remains unchanged, your subscribers will not be affected.

It's been a full day since I made Franklin's suggested change to
Feedburner and my feeds are still not being recognized by Comment Luv.
Any other suggestions are welcome!

Thanks everyone!

One more thing I'm curious about....

Should my "original feed" (which Feedburner says should be the "feed
published on your site") be
1. http://www.viewfromthecloud.com/feeds/posts/default (using just my
new domain name)
or
2. http://www.viewfromthecloud.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default (with
the "blogspot" in the name)
- or doesn't it make any difference?

This kind of makes it sound like my original feed should contain the
"blogspot" reference.

Which one of these two IS the feed being published by Blogger?

ALSO, regarding atom 1.0 vs RSS 2.0. I'm not sure what the difference
or preference should be. According to this Blogger help topic
http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?answer=97933&topic=12455, I have
2 feed choices:

Full site feed:
* Atom 1.0: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
* RSS 2.0: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss
(All site feeds are published in Atom 1.0 format. However, if you add ?
alt=rss to the end of any site feed URL, you can get the same feed in
RSS 2.0 format.)

Is one preferred over the other for any reason?

@Franklin...

I tried all the suggestions listed above and nothing seemed to help.
Now my feed doesn't seem to be showing up on anything. So I set my
original feed back to what it was at the very top of this
thread...http://viewfromthecloud.blogspot.com/atom.xml

Is there anything you can see as to why my latest post isn't showing
up anywhere?

Thanks!

Jeff
