rssCloud

Trying the use of wp_remote_get to get the RSS feed as part of the ping.

Tried adding priority numbers to update_feed and ping functions.

Added a call to PHP sleep function in the ping function.

Trying something new, added actions on posting to fetch feed and ping.

Created a new function to fetch the feed, then added an action to publish_post to get the feed, then schedule a ping 10 seconds after that.

In my last post, I saw a ping when I refreshed a tab with the RSS feed. I decided to rework the plugin to get a copy of the feed using the fetch_feed function when the ping function is called. Let’s see what happens….

Got rid of the delay, added a new action to do the ping when the RSS head element is updated.

Changed the delay to when the RSS feed head element is updated.

Changed tim() to time() in plugin, trying again.

The ping was not recognized by the server, made a small edit and trying again. Also, when I published the post, I got an error in this posting window.
