Announcements don't get picked up by the RSS Feed

Ricardo_Viteri

I just noticed that posts marked as Announcements don't get picked up by the RSS Feed. Can someone help?

Thanks,

The current way announcements work in rss feeds is for them to just get queried with regular discussions in the rss feed. This is the way you'd want it to work from an rss reader's point of view.

Has anyone experienced the same error?

@Todd @Ricardo_Viteri I think this is still not working. For example:

Right now there is an announcement on http://vanillaforums.org/categories/blog/

If you open it, you can see it was created in December 2013: http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/25668/dec-2013-security-update-2-0-18-10-and-2-1b2

However, if you open the RSS feed for that category, that announcement post does not appear, even though the posts in that feed go as far back as 2011: http://vanillaforums.org/categories/blog/feed.rss

Notes:

• Some of the posts appear in the feed out of order
• The post in question was subsequently updated. I think the normal procedure here is to update the post in the RSS feed as well, but I'm not 100% sure.
• Is it more appropriate to post this on GitHub? (See http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/12381/announcements-in-rss-feed )
