    Ok, does it work now? Here's what I'm doing: (def rss-stories (stories) (tag (rss version "2.0") (tag channel (tag title (pr this-site*)) (tag link (pr site-url*)) (tag description (pr site-desc*)) (each s stories (tag item (let comurl (+ site-url* (item-url s)) (tag title (pr (eschtml (s 'title)))) (tag link (pr (if (blank (s 'url)) comurl (eschtml (s 'url))))) (tag comments (pr comurl)) (tag description (pr "<![CDATA[") (link "Comments" comurl) (pr "]]>"))))))))

      It's working in akregator now (wasn't working before).

      It works in Google Reader! Thanks!

      Bloglines now shows the link twice, one from <comments> and one from <description>.
      • pg 19y ago
        Argh. Can anyone tell me a format that will work on all readers? Is the answer to ditch the comments field?
        • ks 19y ago
          I also see them twice, but it doesn't bother me. Just leave it as it is.

          On 20/2 at around 8:15 pm GMT, the comments link disappeared again for me (in Vienna). What's going on?
    • dizz 19y ago

    • hugov 19y ago
      Thanks PG - confirm everything appears to be completely working now!
