FFXIV Zam.com RSS feed pub. datesFollow

Hi there!

I'm attempting aggregate a couple RSS feeds together on my own personal site (Playonline and ffxiv.zam.com), but the Zam feed apparently does not include a publication date for any of the articles posted. This counts for both the RSS2.0(preview) and RSS1.0(preview).

Publication dates lets me see a list of RSS feeds according to whats newest, but because Zam does not include their dates, the newer news from Playonline always show up ahead of Zam's news.

I understand this isn't a pressing issue, so if it doesn't get changed it's really no big deal. I can probably work around it. But I figured other people might want to do what I'm doing, so I wanted to bring it up.

Thanks!

The pubDate field has the publish date in it. Is that not what you are looking for?

Hmm.

For some reason, when I use Yahoo Pipes, it does not read it. It reads the following attributes for Zam.com:

link:http://www.zam.com/story.html?story=20180
rdf:abouthttp://www.zam.com/story.html?story=20180
y:title:FFXIV: Producer Hiromichi Tanaka New Interview [Final Fantasy XIV]
titleFFXIV: Producer Hiromichi Tanaka New Interview [Final Fantasy XIV]
description (article info)

For Playonline, it reads these attributes:

link:http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics/ff11us/detail/4925/detail.html
rdf:about:http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics/ff11us/detail/4925/detail.html

Also, on another API I'm using, the time/date for Zam RSS feeds keeps outputting my current time, and not the time/date of the article.


Not sure what the problem is :(.
