This didn't (seem to) have any affect.  I use KlipFolio 4.

I've tried using the FeedLinks recipe as well and the feed is totally dead.
:(

What aggregator are you using?  Some aggregators key updates to the urls in
the feed, and since page urls don't change when there's an update, the
aggregator never notices.

In these cases we have to "trick" the aggregator into seeing a different url
every time a page is updated.  I think this can be done with something like:

  $FeedFmt['rss']['item']['link'] = '{$PageUrl}?when=$ItemISOTime';

You might -- you'll need your aggregator to be able to authenticate itself
with your webserver.  But that's really outside of PmWiki.  :-)

Let me know if the above fixes the problem you're seeing.
