Welsh Political Aggregator - A couple of Changes

By admin • December 11, 2007

I have made a couple of changes to the setup of the Welsh Political Comment in the toolbar at the top of the page.

It had been pulling full posts from RSS feeds where these were being included. I have modified the code to use the Excerpt rather than the full feed, as in my opinion the purpose of an aggregator should be to help visitors find an individual blog, rather than keep visitors at the aggregation site.

Where RSS feeds include the full post (or no text at all) in the post - this is exactly what will appear on politics-wales.co.uk.
