   FeedSmith is working for me, with 2.8.3. Check it yourself: http://ottodestruct.com/blog/feed/ . If you get redirected, that’s the FeedBurner FeedSmith plugin at work.

     Note, this one here claims to be version 2.3: http://feedburner.google.com/f.....in_2.3.zip

     However, the one on my site is 2.2. Not sure if that makes the difference, as I’ve never bothered to upgrade or anything.

       Not sure if that is the problem but I will update the post if it is not a global problem.

   Also, I see that you’re still redirecting to feedburner.com. Why have you not transitioned the feed over to the Google feedproxy yet? That might be the main issue, as the old feedburner.com is all but dead at this point. I wouldn’t be surprised if they start turning off services to it, forcing people to transition to the new sites.

     I am not sure feedproxy is where it should be headed. feedburner.google.com tells me where to point it to. Check out http://www.quickonlinetips.com.....-redirect/

     What a mess!! Why can’t this be consistent and backwards compatible?

       You can use this domain or any other domain of yours with Feedburner (eg. like I use it http://feeds.blissfulinfusion.com/bi/photoblog), that way the URL of the feed remain same irrespective of any moves by Google. I was using this before the change to Google Feedproxy & so even after migration my blog’s feed URL remain unchanged, I just had to edit the DNS record on my end to point to new server.

       This will also be beneficial if you stop using Feedburner in future, as the feed URL will still be in your control & you would be able to redirect it to the new feed.

       Argh. Yes, I’ve checked my feedburner account, and it appears they’ve switched everything back to http://feeds.feedburner.com/ . Damnit, I wish they’d make up their minds.

       From what I can tell, feeds.feedburner.com is the correct and hopefully final address to be using.

     I would imagine that feeds.feedburner.com feeds will continue to work forever. I seem to be using Google FeedBurner, administered at feedburner.google.com, and I am told to use a URL that begins http://feeds.feedburner.com/. I really don’t think they would bother trying to get everyone to change their links – that would be an enormous and unnecessary upheaval.

   I use also the FeedSmith plugin and it works fine.

   FD Feedburner Plugin redirects all feeds to Feedburner, ez to use. Just put in address of fd feed and it does rest.

   *scratches head*

   Okay. When I updated my feeds for the move to Google I was given urls starting with “feeds2.feedburner.com”. That’s what I have in the Feedburner Feedsmith plugin, and when I click the feed link it takes me to my feed via Feedburner/Google.

   However, when checking out my feed urls at Feedburner.google.com, they all begin with the old “feeds.feedburner.com”

   What?

     Same here; I think, as was suggested above, once all the conversion was complete, Google/FeedBurner returned to the original addressing scheme. That is, feeds.feedburner.com. However, I have noted that both http://feeds.feedburner.com/KestrelsAerie and http://feeds2.feedburner.com/KestrelsAerie both work just fine.

   Works for me as well. Using the latest WP 2.8.3 with the Plugin.

   I checked my site and my feed using this plugin wasn’t working either. Switched to the FD Feedburner Plugin which is working fine.

   Works fine here.

    I have looked at 14 cases of feedburner not working for people. In all cases it was WP-Supercache by Donncha which was cache’ing the feed page so feedburner did not get the latest posts.

    Please setup your wp-supercache to not cache the feed pages and adjust the settings in that plugin.

      There must be something additional in the mix.

      I’ve been using WP Super Cache on several sites and I’ve never had issues with Feedburner not getting my posts.

    The plugin is still working fine for me, although Google changed my FeedBurner URL without notification to the feeds2.feedburner.com domain a few months ago which was a little frustrating to say the least.

      See my earlier comment ^

      Google has apparently changed things back to feeds.feedburner.com

    I’ve been using the FeedSmith plugin ever since I discovered it redirects all feeds to one address so stat tracking is easier and a little more accurate. Just checked my feeds and they are redirecting just fine, no issues on this front.

    FeedBurner FeedSmith 2.3.1 works just fine for me under 2.8.4.
