Sandbox for testing configuration.
I think it's cool that we can send configuration files specific to a site.
It would be too much to ask to have a sandbox to test the configuration files before posting them? :-)
Thanks again for the contributions. We do have plans for a sandbox to let users test site config files. I can't say when it'll be ready, but definitely something we're considering. :)
Any news on that one?
Hi @nblock, not yet. When we added the siteconfig request parameter in Full-Text RSS 3.4 - which allows you to pass extraction rules usually held in site config files directly in the request - one reason was to enable something like this. A tool that would let users test site config files before submitting them. That part hasn't happened yet though. But will update this once we do make progress on that.
I have been using this: http://f43.me/feed/test (click the "Want to try a custom siteconfig?" link).
