How can I get my feed stories to display exactly as shown on the feed address, instead they seem randomly sorted, what is the sorting methodology? Thanks.
Alphabetically or by most used. You can choose in Manage > Preferences.
I have a RSS address, when I look at the address site in a browser I can see the stories in XML format, they are in order, when I put the RSS address into the reader, the stories get sorted differently, I cannot figure out the sort method, it seems random. For example, this RSS has an order for stories and that story order is not maintained when in reader: http://rtq.careerbuilder.com/RTQ/rss2…
It’s by date order. You can change it to oldest or newest first, but date rules on stories.
And if the stories have no dates or all the dates/times are the same, what is the data piece it uses to sort? It seems it does not sort by title or link, I can’t find the sort pattern. For example, try and please tell how it sorts: http://rtq.careerbuilder.com/RTQ/rss2…
The date becomes the datetime the story was first fetched on.
