    $link = $modx->config['site_url'].$modx->documentObject['alias']


    This may fix the problem for people using FURLS but it will cause alot of trouble if FURLS are not used.

    What about

    $link = $modx->config['site_url']."[~".$modx->documentObject['id']."~]";

    

    
Give that a try and let me know if that works. 
    

    
As for this line:
    

    
$link = $modx->config['site_url'].$modx->makeUrl($ds[$i]['id']);


    Give this a try

    $link = $modx->config['site_url']."[~".$ds[$i]['id']."~]";

    

    
Hope this helps.

            Hi guys,

            I just added the NewsFeed snippet to my site at www.avander.be and i’m getting strange behaviour with the Live Bookmarks in Firefox...

            The snippet is aimed at the content of this kinda blog page http://www.avander.be/index.php?id=49 and works pretty well ( see the page footer) apart from some sorting that still has to be done. But when I add a Live Bookmark I get links to documents that are not ment to be in the feed... where are these links coming from? Is RSS 2.0 not compatible with LB?

            Any thoughts? TIA

              Found it!

              Live Bookmarks searches for an RSS link tag inside the head tag of the page. So when inserting the NewsFeed snippet in your page you MUST also modify the link tag in the page heading and make it point to your RSS document. 

              <head>
	<title>[(site_name)] | [*pagetitle*]</title>

	<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=[(etomite_charset)]" />

	<link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/templates/.../site.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/templates/.../form.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/templates/.../lpg.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
  <!-- this is the one -->
        <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS 2.0" href="[(site_url)][~81~]" />

        <base href="[(site_url)]" />
        ...
</head>
