Wordpress Bugs and My Call For Help
I have been blogging for quite some time. During that time I have used blogspot.com, wordpress.com and now my own wordpress install. The main thing that has made me move from platform to platform is gaining more and more control over my blogging experience. With that said as of late I have been having some really problematic wordpress bugs.
- Wordpress republishes my rss feeds when I edit my posts
I expected this was being caused by the Simple Feed Copyright plugin so I have disabled it. I had a reason for installing it but I would much rather be able to edit my posts and I’m not so sure how bother I am by other sites ripping my content (I would still rather they did not however). Despite my best googling efforts I have still not solved this problem. Any ideas? Update: Yup this seems to have solved it! - Wordpress is no longer emailing me when someone comments on my blog
Google did get me more information on this problem. But I have still not been able to solve it. Whenever someone comments on my blog I would like to be notified by email. Any ideas?

Hmm. I have been using 2.5.1 and all these things work for me, even when using the Simple Feed Copyright plugin.
Let’s rule out the simple, but sometimes easy to miss stuff first…
Dashboard -> Settings -> General
- do you have a valid email address in the email address box?
Dashboard -> Settings -> Discussions
- check the notification settings and make sure you are set to receive the notices, they may have been changed.
I’m guessing you have everything set up correctly there, but it’s worth double checking.
Your subtitle should be ‘unknown’ I think

Why don’t you file bugs for these issues? The comments section of your blog hardly functions as an effective issue tracker.
I have the same issue with not getting emails anymore. It was working and then just stopped. I didn’t do anything to my blog. It has not been updated (and it does need to be but I haven’t got around to it). It just worked one day and then stopped. I thought maybe it was unique to my blog but I guess not. Odd.
Lamby - there is all ready a wordpress thread about it.
I have been using the Copyright Feed plugin for quite some time, and it doe not republish my posts.
So that is out…
Stop wordpress
Use the free, opensource Dotclear : http://dotclear.net
@ad Well disabling the plugin seems to have fixed the republish problem.
… not really!
blast any ideas
