update: I modified feedwordpress.php at line 885 and commented the following code:

// checkadminreferer();

Which basically avoids checking for CSF attacks. It seems to work after that. I don't know if that means anything to you.

I too am having the same problem as casey - "Are you sure you want to do this?" followed by a blank page after trying to add a URL.

Any idea?

There appears to be a couple of bugs with 2.5.1 and FeedWordpress. I’m using 0.993, but have found that I have to turn off FeedWordpress in order for the flash image uploader to work or to be able to add pictures to a post. Also, if your using a theme with 2 columns, you cannot add widgets to the 2nd column unless you turn off FeedWordpress. I’ve repeated this several times and have found that deactiviating FeedWordpress is the only way I can change widgets on my 2nd sidebar or add pictures to posts.

This is cool. I can’t use feedwordpress in my WPMU. So I install WP 2.5.1 and feedwordpress 0.993. Looks ok. But why only the title that shown up? From 10 contributors, only 2 that shown the content. Can you help me? Thanks.

[...] for an upcoming release of FeedWordPress, but I have released version 0.993 now in order to resolve the critical compatability issue with WordPress 2.5.1. I am still doing compatibility testing to see whether there are any kinks in compatibility with [...]

Tony, it sounds like you have too many feeds. How often to you update them? It might be good to try to do it more often so that each time some of the feeds are still fresh from the last check and thus don’t need to be rechecked. Overall you will use more resources, but your shared host won’t be staring at such high load for such long periods of time. I never actually implemented it, but that was my plan for mitigating the resources on my FWP site if it got too unwieldy. You may also just have to get a more gracious or powerful host if you want to aggregate that many feeds.
