I am beginning to regret my pretty permalinks. Apparently it broke the RSS feed for some subscribers. The problem was caused by a combination of factors. When I started this blog, I used a different blog engine; and when I migrated to WordPress I fixed it so that the old feed URL still worked. Moving to pretty permalinks broke that feed, although the normal WordPress feeds still worked. There was no error; the feed was just empty. The reason it broke is … something to do with redirects. Fixed now.
Apologies if this affected you – I have not been as quiet as you may have thought.

Is there a reason you’ve switched to partial content in your feeds? It’s pretty tedious having to click though to the website.
I agree.
I’d prefer to read the complete articles with my news reader instead of having to start the browser each time.

It is set to full text, so something is not working right. I’ll investigate.

Update: I’ve hacked it for the moment. Let me know if you still get partial text.

Tim, full text is back but it’s plain text with no paras blockquotes, imgs etc. I’m using Google Reader against http://www.itwriting.com/blog/rss.php
http://www.itwriting.com/blog/feed/rss is broken too. Fixed by using http://www.itwriting.com/blog/feed or http://www.itwriting.com/blog/feed/atom
