Bloglines and Wordpress 2.02

It really seems like there’s something going on with bloglines not picking up on feeds after people upgrade to Wordpress 2.02. My feeds don’t work, and when I looked over some of the other blogs I follow that also run Wordpress, I’m getting similar bloglines error messages when logging in to see if there are any updates from Comics Worth Reading, Rose Read, Etc, Polite Dissent, and Stefan. I’ve searched the wordpress support forums, and I haven’t found anything concrete about this problem, so I’m assuming that this is a problem on the Bloglines end. After semi-breaking my site yesterday while noodling around trying out different settings and rewrite rules for the feeds, I’m not even going to attempt to do anything about this problem for now. I did drop a note to Bloglines customer support, but I haven’t heard anything yet.

Update: It looks like everything is working just fine now. That’s great, I must have super blog mojo or something, that the problem would be fixed shortly after I blogged about it :)

    hmmm… thanks for the heads-up. It might be worse than you thought since I’m still on WP 1.5 at etc. Will keep my eye on the situation though and let you know if I find out anything.

    Maybe it is a general problem with bloglines and wordpress feeds?

    Really? you’re getting the red [!] that bloglines loves so much?

    I know when I originally upgraded to 2.0 there was all sorts of problems with the feed. I forget how I tracked down the problem.

    As far as I can tell it’s working fine now though (as I am subscribed to my own feed [vanity check I know]).

    Have you tried resubscribing? We’ll crush this problem yet!

    This is SO weird, everything seems to be working just fine now!

    bloglines can be quirky.

    I updated yesterday and had this same problem, but it’s all bloglines fault. Some days they don’t pick up wordpress, some days they don’t pick up blogger…

    Just thought I’d FYI that Kinja is still picking the feed fine.

    Thanks! I’m glad it was just a bloglines problem. Next time bloglines acts up like this I won’t worry so much. It was my first time getting the dreaded [!] invalid feed icon for an extended length of time, and since I had just upgraded I assumed it was something I’d done.
