RSS Feed Widgets not displaying recent posts

    Any RSS widgets that I add do not display that feed’s/blog’s most recent posts, only older ones. For example:

    http://oaklandtech.com/staff/

    …take a look at the 3 RSS widgets(PTSA Yahoo Group, WordPress, Eductation Report) in the right sidebar. You’ll see that the most recent post being displayed from those 3 feeds is 4/13/09, 4/6/09, and 10/14/08, respectively. If you click on the RSS icon next to each feed name, you can see that each of them does, in fact, have many more recent posts since those dates.

    I couldn’t swear to it, but the problem may have started after I upgraded to 2.7.

    Thanks for any ideas….

    OK, I’m narrowing in on the problem, but still no solution. It seems that this line (near line 442) in rss.php:

    // returns cache HIT, MISS, or STALE
    $cache_status = $cache->check_cache( $url );

    always returns ‘STALE’ for any RSS feed url that it checks. As a result, it appears to be returning a cached feed, instead of a live/udpated feed. I have no idea a) where the cached version of the feed resides, or b) how to get it to return ‘HIT’, and the updated feed.

    Still plugging away . . .
