(Continuing the discussion from #22 (comment).)

Ideally, we’d get the combined Analytics for the old URL structure + the new one. (We still use the same tracking ID.) Is this possible without overcomplicating things? What I do manually is e.g. for https://v8.dev/blog/10-years I’d search analytics for the page slug 10-years, which would also match the old URL https://v8project.blogspot.com/2018/09/10-years.html.

Some context used to be on the old V8 blog, but is now available under a new URL. For example, these two URLs refer to the same content (and the former now redirects to the latter):

https://v8project.blogspot.com/2018/09/10-years.html
https://v8.dev/blog/10-years

We're still using the same Google Analytics tracking ID, so it should be possible to get the page views for /blog/10-years as well as for /2018/09/10-years.html and just add them up.

There's a complete list of mappings from old URLs to new URLs: https://github.com/v8/v8.dev/blob/28dab9d3064fc38bbf5d5a32430e724e7503aeec/url-mappings.js#L15-L90 Maybe we could use that reverse mapping in devwebfeed? I.e., if a mapping exists for the current URL (e.g. https://v8.dev/blog/10-years), also look up the stats for the old one (e.g. https://v8project.blogspot.com/2018/09/10-years.html) and add them up to get the total view count.

Reproduction steps

1. Log out
2. Open e.g. https://devwebfeed.appspot.com/admin/stats?author=Mathias%2BBynens
3. Go through the login flow

Expected result:

You’re now at https://devwebfeed.appspot.com/admin/stats?author=Mathias%2BBynens.

Actual result:

You’re now at https://devwebfeed.appspot.com/admin/stats?author%3DMathias%2BBynens. Note how the = got incorrectly escaped as %3D.

To capture page views on these resources.

Dupes are prevented by checking if the URL has already been posted. But we
only look a the current year. IOW, an RSS post from 2017 can be reposted via the extension
in 2018 because we only consider the submitted year:

Right now, it "fails" silently and doesn't tell users the URL has already been post,

Figure out where to get views for videos!

Hi all,

since a couple of weeks, the website is giving me a 404:

404. That’s an error. The requested URL was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

Just wanted to inform you...

Cheers

Add Google analytics pages for /web content (and others) for logged in users.

@surma -> "Supercharged", etc.

Although multiple authors (e.g. HTTP 203) gets tricky.

There's probably some url sets that we don't want to allow to get posted such as googleplex etc. Might be good to add a configurable filter that stops us from doing something stupid.

Feed does not load on other browsers then Chrome, tried both Edge & FF — app shell loads but feed keeps loading.

Any plans to make it cross browser?
Thank you.

E.g. https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/primers/modules has two authors, but only one of them is recognized in the app.

Any ideas of adding web push notifications?

Is it possible to make e.g. https://devwebfeed.appspot.com/?admin&domain=mathiasbynens.be show all content from this domain, i.e. from any year? That would be super useful to get an overview.

I love this site and its feed! Alas, in an RSS reader, feed entries often appear in the past. I’m assuming that’s due to the entries using the dates of the sources(?) Would it help if the date of a feed entry were the date of its creation?
