I’ve been getting reports that Google Reader displays duplicates and sometimes triplets of my entries:
feed://www.myfirstmac.com/index.php/mac/rss_2.0/
I heard that it might have to do with the GUID tag and the fact that we are sometimes changing the date for an entry.
but can duplicate entries in RSS feeds be prevented? here’s the code:
{assign_variable:master_weblog_name="default_site"}
{exp:rss:feed weblog="{master_weblog_name}"}
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="{encoding}"?>
<rss version="2.0"
