Sorry, "garbage" was a bit broad... Suppose I put **bold** !!! heading on a page. I get "strong br h3" as the feed. The text is missing, the html not rendered. My feed reader displays html in other feeds. > > content=text gives wiki speak. > > > I cannot think of any reason to feed wiki speak but of course to feed > > either wiki-stripped pages or html pages. > > Of course on the other hand, why would you put markup in a blog? Blog entries can contain links, formatted text and so on. Then it's odd to see a bold word as **bold** in the feed reader. > Text just means you get exactly what is in the page.

My expectation was the following: content=html -> looks the same as in your browser content=text -> looks the same as if you copy the page to a text editor (no styles, no links and so on) If no feed reader converts wiki markup to html I don't see the point sending wiki markup to a feed. > I like the way mail function ended up turning out (in terms of > generating content).

Therefore blog.* pages can be accessed, fetched to rss.blog, and displayed by rsslist. But if I open rss.blog in a feed reader I am not logged in. Therefore blog.* pages cannot end up in the feed unless I explicitly make them viewable by guest. I think this is just the way it should be and my confusion stemmed from not noticing the authentication difference. When the RSS solutions page is updated we should add a hint that nobody (as clueless as myself) ever again tries to feed member-only pages – whether or not they are displayed by rsslist which does not matter at all.
