Facebook RSS feed not updating

I don’t know if other people have been experiencing the same issue but the RSS feed doesn’t seem to update :( We using this feature since we don’t have yet finished native Facebook App for WHiWA for reporting watched titles.

So what we can do?

Here is a quick fix for slow updating RSS feeds from your blogs to your Facebook “Notes”. Lately I have been experiencing severe delays in updates. So I had a look around and found a quick “update” feature. This allows me to manually update my RSS feeds found under the Notes tab and it is also featured on the front of my “Wall”.

Sometimes the most obvious details slip you by. Depending on what I’m doing I don’t have the chance to check Facebook  and sometimes I just simply forget!

Automation is essential for ensuring repetitive routine tasks get done instantly saving you time and allowing you to get on with other things. I’ve experienced a few glitches where it has taken hours to update. This may be due to the recent changes being made at Facebook which appears to be slowing down regular features. Follow the steps below to instantly update your RSS feeds to display your most recent articles.

Step 1

Go to your Face book “Profile” and click on the “Settings” tab to the right of your “Wall”.

You’ll be presented with the “Stories by You” menu where your imported RSS feeds are located.

Step 2

Move down to click on the Blog/RSS hyperlink and “Update Now”.

Step 3

Then you will be available to view your latest blog posts both on your Facebook Wall and Notes.

Voila!

Connect WHiWA.net with Facebook

..and report all movies you watch!

Hledáme posilu

Ahoj, tak tu máme nový rok a s rostoucí popularitou whiwy nějak přestáváme stíhat a proto hledáme posilu do našeho týmu :)

klíčová je podpora více přehrávačů a proto potřebujem někoho, kdo:
- se vyzná v DirectShow a říká mu něco novinka ve vistách EVR
- dokáže napsat plug-in do některého ze současných přehrávačů(KMPplayer, GOMplayer, BSplayer apod)

Dál pak šikovné překladatele na jednoduchý překlad do cizých jazyků(kromě AJ a NJ) a korektora/korektorku z AJ(kdo by po nás opravoval hrubky v anglickém jazyce)
