Thanks for the clarification! It has been fixed.

I think Feedburner silently stopped updating the feed after the database issue a couple of days back. I had to login to Feedburner and manually hit the "Refresh" button before it updated to the latest content.

At some point in time, I might have to stop using Feedburner and just link directly to the actual feed.

Frankly, Feedburner is a pale shadow of its former self I am surprised Google hasn't yet cancelled it like so many of their other products!

Well, isn't it obvious: you posted this using my name.
In my original post I wrote that https://feeds.feedburner.com/pfc is not updating

Hi Ennovy,

Andrew had to change the feed link because the FeedBurner link was not updating properly.

You may want to change your feed link over to the TPFC internal feed link https://www.portablefreeware.com/feed.php - this works fine.

Cheers,

Nick

I have stopped receiving the main news after the change was made. I have not had problems with the comments and the forum feeds, which remained unchanged.

Could you clarify what you mean by "main news"? Are you referring to the database additions/updates?

If so, have you tried the new feed URL?
