Strange thing happening in Seeds

Some of the links to my articles in Seeds are acting strange.

If I hover over the link, it displays this in the status bar: http://equivocality.com/mint/http://www … ected-kiss

If I copy the link location and paste, it turns into this: http://equivocality.com/mint/http%3A%2F … ed-kiss%2F

Also, it presents it as being “In Articles %28RSS2%29”

The funny thing is that the behaviour isn’t consistent. For the exact same article, some will show this behaviour, some will work correctly.

It’s likely the result of your rewrite rule to enforce a no www policy on your domain. Disable the rewrite engine in your Mint directory and it should return to normal.

Thanks for the quick response.

By “disable the rewrite engine in your Mint directory” do you mean disable the trimming of www from urls, or disable the rewrite rule in my .htaccess file for the Mint directory?

I mean add the following to an .htaccess file in your Mint directory:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine   off
</IfModule>

I’ve added this code to an .htaccess file in my directory three days ago, but I’m still seeing occurrences of this strange behaviour as recent as six hours ago.

Any other suggestions?

I’m sorry, that .htaccess file also needs to go in your Feeder directory.

Thanks a lot, that fixed it!
