Goal is to have an xml module on my home page that links to my latest blog posts feeds.  The problem, the feed on the home page isn't updating quickly after someone makes a post.  Some posts aren't even showing up.  Could I be linking to the wrong link?

I'm not sure if I'm doing this right, on my home page I have a latest blog posts .xml with the following settings:
Link Type: URL
Location:  http://www.mywebsite.com/Section/Blogs/tabid/57/rssid/0/Default.aspx
I grabbed the URL off the XML link for my blog.  Am I doing something wrong?

XSL stlye sheet
Here's my current style sheet:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:param name="TITLE"/>
<xsl:template match="rss">
  <xsl:for-each select="channel/item[position() &gt; 1]">
  <xsl:if test="position() &lt; 9">
    <br></br>
    <strong><a href="{link}" target="_main"><xsl:value-of select="title"/></a></strong>
    <br>
    </br>
        <em><xsl:value-of select="creator"/></em>
    <br></br>
  </xsl:if>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="description">
  <br>
    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
  </br>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

The style sheet just pulls the post link in, how can I also pull the author or user name in?  When I use the author tag it pulls the user e-mail address in only.  Any hints are greatly appreciated.

No, it is by design. I don't know how it works for the blog module, I suggest that you post your question in that forum.

Again, this is up to the blog module, not to the xml module.

Please check the value for WebRequestTimeout inside host settings (more)
