I've just released BottomFeeder 3.2. A summary of what's new:
Proper handling of Http Moved responses. 301 is followed, with links updated. 302 is followed, but links are not updated
With 301/302 responses, relative urls are now supported
Added filtering of feed items. Users can filter on title/category/content, and do so at a global level or on an individual feed level. Filters at the feed level override any global filter
The 'New' view can show the 2 pane view, or show a tree that is restricted to feeds with new items (and folders that contain such feeds)
Added support for defining Amazon search feeds. This uses the Amazon API for defining RSS enabled queries
OPML feedlists are more properly supported; in previous versions, the defined OPML directory structure was not followed. It is now
Instead of proxy settings being off when the server name is deleted, there is a checkbox in settings for turning proxy support on and off
Updated the Http access to properly handle proxy responses of 100 Continue
When Feed Auto-Discovery fails, we return a more useful error message
Fixed some inconsistencies in menu items that were enabled/disabled based on the online state of the app
Added an optional ability to track timeouts on feeds across multiple updates, and mark a feed as 'bad' if it failed too many times
If updates fail on 10% or more of the feeds in a row, the user will be prompted as to the online state (unless the setting is turned off)
A new, updated version of TypeLess ships with this version of BottomFeeder
Addressed the problem whereby images in the html view sometimes overlaid text.
There's a lot of new stuff, and a lot of improvements to what was already there. The upgrade tool can be used; no need to re-install.
