[Jonathan Wilde]

This update solves the following issues:

[Jonathan Wilde]

Sorry!

This update solves the following issues:

* The plugin is unable to reach FeedBurner
* Google FeedBurner feeds are inaccessible

Known issues:
* The new HTTP class uses disk-based caching rather than WordPress's
database-based caching

The update can be downloaded at:
http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/feed-stats-plugin.1.0.5.zip

I'm releasing this as a beta so that I can find out if there are any
major issues with it before release. There are lots of "under-the-
hood" changes that could potentially cause issues (I *did* complete
testing of the plugin in WP 2.3, 2.6, and 2.8-bleeding, though).

If you have any issues, please contact me.

Thanks!
Jonathan

Hey Jonathan,

thanks for the update. Are you sure everything works correctly?

Just installed it and it lets me test my url and everything but when I go to my stats it appears to be empty and I know that's not the case.

Gonna check into it a bit more but thougt I'd report this already.

greetings,

[Bram Vandenbussche]

I found the problem.

I migrated all my feeds to Google, via this post: http://www.prelovac.com/vladimir/how-to-move-from-feedburnercom-to-google-feedproxy, and because of that the url for the awareness api has changed from: 

http://api.feedburner.com/awareness/1.0/GetFeedData

to this:

https://feedburner.google.com/api/awareness/1.0/GetFeedData

The old one doesn't return any data. You can test this with this url to my site:

http://api.feedburner.com/awareness/1.0/GetFeedData?uri=bramvandenbussche&dates=2009-02-10,2009-02-15

In your code I can see that you check on this through the given url in function fs_fetch_feedburner_data ($url, $action, $updatable=true, $post=null)  (fs-comm.php) but the first part of the url is already given when you enter your feed uri...

So I guess it's always the old one..

Maybe you need to add 2 radiobuttons to let the user decide wether or not this feed has been migrated to feedburner.

kind regards,

[Jonathan Wilde]

Thanks so much!

I really like the idea of radiobuttons to select between Google and
FeedBurner feeds--it would dramatically simplify the code. I'm
worried about whether it would be hard to explain the difference
between Google FeedProxy/FeedBurner and FeedBurner to users. I
suppose those who have switched manually to Google *would* know the
difference, though. This is a tricky issue that I'll think about
before implementing the radiobuttons.

In the meantime, I've fixed the bug.

I was using PCRE to determine whether it was a Google
FeedBurner/FeedProxy feed or non-Google FeedBurner feed. Older
versions of the plugin only stored the feed name; the URL replacement
stuff was intended to autodetect the proper full URL so that stats for
non-Google FeedBurner users wouldn't suddenly stop getting displayed.

You can apply the fix by downloading a new package from WordPress.org
(http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/feed-stats-plugin.1.0.5-b2.zip)
or by applying the attached patch (assuming Google Groups allows
attachments). You may have to re-enter your feed URL.

Thanks again,
Jonathan

This seems to do the trick pretty good!

thanks a lot for the update: )

[Jonathan Wilde]

Awesome! Thanks for testing it. I'll go release it. Now that I
finally have a stable platform, I'll be working on some more
interesting features, like tracking and graphing multiple feeds at
once.

[Bram Vandenbussche]

You're very welcome!

I'm looking forward to more advanced features :)
