I know its possible to put an RSS feed link in the header of a page so it shows as a button in the address bar. Im assuming the answer is no, but is it possible to have 2 links?
If so, how widely supported is this?
Thanks
Answer is yes:
Multiple RSS link tags within the head, valid markup or not?
Thanks to random for answering this, im just posting here so I can mark this answer as correct.

I'm looking at the API for Feedbin (https://github.com/feedbin/feedbin-api/blob/master/content/subscriptions.md) and I can't seem to find where I can retrieve the favicon for the feed.
Does anyone know how this is usually requested?
Based on the source code, it seems to be coming from Cloudfront. Now, that probably does not answer your question as to how it ends up there.
In all likely hood Feedbin or Feedly use a library that extract the favicon url based on the HTML pages related to a feed.
For feedbin, this can solve the question
https://api.feedbin.com/v2/icons.json
It shows all icons for feeds that the user is subscribed to.

I wonder if there is a way to make the Facebook crawler ignore the canonical link on a page.
I have a situation where the canonical link points to a different URL than the one that you are actually on.
This results in that the og:image, og:url etc. that is dynamically added to the page is ignored and the information on the facebook page is completely wrong.
I have searched for an answers to this but come up short...
If I have understood your comments correctly, you may be going about this the wrong way. If you want your like button to like a url different to the page you are on, just change the href of the like button. Make sure the page at that href has the correct og tags and you shouldn't have a problem.
If this isn't what you mean, can you try to explain what you are trying to achieve, rather than what you think the problem is, as you might just be approaching it from the wrong angle.
I need to test an application that reads different mediaRSS feeds and work with the content. My problem is that I'm not able to find many of them. Could you help me with some links?
This is what I've found by now : http://feeds.nationalgeographic.com/ng/photography/photo-of-the-day/

Any Youtube channel you should be able to get a media rss feed, for example: http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/garminblog/uploads

I am currently developing a Wordpress site, and everytime a comment, page or article is added/retrieved, the HTML entites in the text are encoded, particulary single quotes/double quotes, like #089A.
Is there a setting or something that can be enabled/disabled that does this? I've tried the usual Google searches but alas I can't find anything.
Cheers,

Just to update this. I've been looking at the site today and it seems that the offending HTML entitiy is "–"
The posts are being returned via AJAX in a JSON response and instead of seeing – I see "–" plus the semi-colon.
Any reason for this?
Cheers,

Is there a reason I can get the Summary but not the Content of a SyndicationItem. I am looking for the entire post. It appears that it depends on how the RSS feed is configured. Is this true?
Can I expect to read the entire content of any RSS feed from the wild? Thanks
I realise this is something of a gravedig, but it's still open and unanswered.
If the content is just text, you could typecast the content to TextSyndicationContent.
