page is going nuts with a lot of rss feeds

[sante140]

we are trying to build a content website with rss feeds

everything went well, feeds went smottly in, displaying them the way we want like this

A

B

C

etc

but afther more then a 1000 listings, we went a different way

All of a sudden the pages looked like this

A

<------------------>B


<------------------------------>C


<----------------------------------------------------------->etc

How can we solve this?
we did alter some tables for the outgooing links from varchar 255 to BLOB, because of the links where to long, but this has nothing to do with the page display or am i wrong?

[savant]

do you have a screenshot of how it looks because i don't understand what you're trying to show.

[sante140]

Yes of course.



this goes on till the lower right

I'm guessing that you altered the template files? Give us a url so we can check it out.

[sante140]

nope we did not alter the template.

at least , not that i am beware of.

[Yankidank]

Try reuploading Yget again and replace all of the old files. It may not have copied over properly.

How do the links appear in your RSS feed?

Did you map the url_link to the description field of the feed by accident?

this is what your story url out looks like

http://www.yourdomain.com/out.php?url=%26lt%3Btable%20border%3D%26quot%3B0%26quot%3B%20cellpadding%3D%26quot%3B8%26quot%3B%26gt%3B%26lt%3Btr%26gt%3B%26lt%3Btd%26gt%3B%26lt%3Ba%20href%3D%26quot%3Bhttp%3A%2F%2Frover.ebay.com%2Frover%2F1%2F711-37018-2978-0%2F1%3FAID%3D10420677%26PID%3D2364447%26loc%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fcgi.ebay.com%252FStar-Wars-Galactic-Heroes-Clone-Wars-Anakin-w-o-shirt_W0QQitemZ220094897908QQcmdZViewItemQQssPageN

I would do the following

1. If you are working from a clean install and all your stories are from rss I would delete all the records in your links table.
2. Remap RSS feed and try again.


Just how I would approach it.

****I just added a new story to your site.(hope you do not mind) I definitely think your issue has something to so with the RSS feed field mapping.
