Hello!
I got this email from a reader on my site and i need help fixing up my feed to meet his request. Here is the email:
Hi there I am trying to add your RSS feed to GuitarLead.net as I think you have
a great website with some really interesting posts. However, I seem to be
running into a problem with your feedburner RSS feed, it doesn't seem to include a publish date (pubDate) which means yout posts are not being ordered correctly in my aggregated feed and therefore not showing. ...but if you could try and work out a way to add the date to your feed your articles will start showing up on GuitarLead immediately :)
cheers.
Jon

Hi,
If you change the original feed of your FeedBurner feed to the RSS 2 version of your WordPress feeds, there will be pubDate. You can change that via "Edit Feed Details..."
The URL of the RSS 2 feed should be http://www.theguitarresource.com/wp-rss2.php

Hi Jon,
The pub date is an element that is usually found in your feed from your website, it is the same as the published date for the post in your blog. I'm not sure why your wordpress install is not adding pub date to the feed, you might want to look and make sure each of your posts has a published date recorded on it. If not, you might want to try wordpress's support site to see if there is a solution to this. At worst you can try resinstalling the wordpress feed script or wordpress completely to make sure your feed works.
>From there your FeedBurner feed will pass through the pub date as well as we leave most things in your original feed untouched.

Jessie,
I think Jon's FeedBurner feed does not have pubDate because he has burnt the RSS 0.92 version of his WordPress feeds, which does not allow any pubDate elements according to the specification. His issue should be able to get fixed by changing the original feed to the RSS 2 version.
