my second life feed

[LadyEllenT]

Is there some reason my feed only goes back  two weeks? I thought maybe it was a change in the site but I checked and other feeds still go way back. When I scroll down, there is no "more" tab on mine, although I've been posting on it since I signed up four months ago. I also checked while logged out and it isn't just me who only sees two weeks of posts.

When I look at https://my.secondlife.com/LadyEllenT I see nothing. So you have even less than 2 weeks now.

Hi LadyEllen!

I do see content on your feed, unlike Pleasureboi. About 15 days worth.

The feed isn't a storage medium - it's poorly designed and the network it sits on top of is lousy. Really it's only any good for showing what you've been up to very recently because it will always error out sooner or later.

I'd recommend keeping your snapshots somewhere else if you want a way to show them off forever.

That is incredibly valid.

You can still access your pics if you you manually add /snapshots  after your name in the address bar.

Ok, that's very good to know and I'm glad I figured it out early. I take a ton of snapshots but most of them are saved to my harddrive any way. Do you think this glitch is temporary and they will be back or does this mean they've been eaten forever? I've gone back thru my feed a couple times recently and it was fun to see how much my look has changed since my system avi and those awful freebie galaxy clothes.

Ohh I see. I did that and the snapshots do go back to the beginning. Thanks! Now I'm going to save these before it's too late.

You may see the missing posts again. Sometimes the feed will let you load more, sometimes less.

But this issue has been around since the feed was released, it's never been reliable.

Good luck!
