I just noticed that our rss feed no longer include the product image. Is this a glitch or intentional?

The images show when I click the rss feed button inside your category. (Do you see that?)

I don't see the images where I put my rss feed either. So I guess there is a disconnect (maybe due to the recent crash). I'll ask Dimitar.

Yes, the image is viewable under category but not under store level.

I don't seem to have a problem with the rss feeds.
But as long as it's viewable under category, why don't you just use those?

If you have 100 categories that means you have to input 100 rss feeds. Not productive way to do things.

We are. The issue is they do not appear with images where you post them. So people trying to view them won't see the images (even though there are images at the rss feed url).

I use the rss feeds on my squidoo lens (and I checked them right after your comment), the pics do show up.

Maybe the issue isn't the feed itself, but where you're using them? If you're putting them in a feed user that doesn't replicate html it will only show text, not images.

I have it in my iGoogle. It was showing the images earlier on. Now its all links.

I did go back to check, if I expand I can see the images. So maybe that is an iGoogle thing.

I gotta admit I do not know much about rss feed.

Thanks cloudine.

My RSS works fine on Squidoo and Ning as long as I just use a category. Before, I could filter on search data and the images would show up. A few days ago, both of mine did the same thing, no images, just place holders and you could not click on the title without an error, just the image placeholder. I just replaced mine with a category in hopes that it is all due to the revisions in the search and would soon be fixed. I only saw one other person comment about this on the other site, so I didn't ask here. Maybe it is a problem that we should report?

I already emailed eCrater about this.
