Dlvr.it acting up sometimes

[jancborchardt]

There's sometimes tweets like this: https://twitter.com/opensrcdesign/status/886892237363085312

With just the dlvr.it link, on top of it to a past event. Any idea about this @simonv3 @bnvk @belenbarrospena @ei8fdb @evalica @jdittrich? Could we make sure that doesn't happen – and if you fixed it please also delete the tweet, I only left it there so you can see. :)

I have no idea who set up the dlvr.it thing :(

I set it up. I noticed that as well. Clearly the issue seems to not be on Dlvr.it's side but via Github / Jekyll in generating the RSS from our site.

In the events RSS feed, you see there is an empty title of the first item:

http://opensourcedesign.net/events/feed.xml

Beyond that, the source of that specific event is here:

https://github.com/opensourcedesign/events/blob/gh-pages/_posts/2016-03-01-opensourcedesign-internetfreedomfestival.md

The issue might be that I had added Jekyll redirect-from data to the or something with the permalink is wonky. I will try to investigate more.

I guess just delete the tweet for now?!

Deleted the tweet. Can we also set it so that it posts the actual link instead of a dlvr.it masked link like at https://twitter.com/opensrcdesign/status/891800461061181440

Because with the masked link, Twitter doesn’t generate any preview box, and it also looks a bit shady.

Happened again August 2: https://twitter.com/opensrcdesign/status/892746569102934020

Deleted the tweet already but would be good to get this fixed. I’d say even deactivating it is better than having these broken-looking links to outdated events in there. :\

Newest tweet too, just a dlvr.it link. @bnvk could you look into it?

I'd prefer us needing to post manually over having strange looking link-only posts.
