Product Characterisation RSS Feeds Options

[belloire69]

Up till VERY recently the RSS Feed carried a product characterisation (along with its name & overview function) that informed the reader of its type such as Adware, Freeware, Trial, GPL etc. but this has now disappeared. It is a great shame if this is intentional as the RSS feed particularly is a useful tool for giving a daily overview of products as they becoma available/updated on Softpedia & this characterisation, although simple, was very helpful in this "quick scan" mode. Any chance that this can be re-instituted?

Yay - it's back! I'd given up on this function. I do hope this re-instation isn't an accident! Seriously, thanks for its return

Eh? I'm confused now! The link you pointed me to contains a reply by Sorin Brabete saying "The license information has also been added back" & BeadyEye's reply seems to confirm this. I, too can confirm this (since yesterday only for me) so why are you saying "it isn't (back)"?

As an aside, was there a reason BeadyEye's query was answered so speedily yet mine has been ignored for so long? Did I post in the wrong place? (sorry if I did. I did a search before posting & found no open or related threads & thought here was most appropriate. If there's some guidance rules I missed, please direct me to the correct place. Thnx)


Self-reply:
Sorry. Read it all again. Perhaps you were saying "it isn't an accident" rather than the way I (mis)understood it

1. Most probably Sorin didn't see your topic. For site problems/bugs, you should post in Site & Forum feedback (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
