Feed not working with https

when you create blocks, the feed doesn't work with https:// , just saying that for info.

edited to clarify.

What happens? I am not aware of any reason why it wouldn't work.

Also, why would you want to secure a feed?

... of course, I am guessing, but some folks redirect all http traffic to https... I've had to do that before, but never on a *nuke site.

I noticed that with Twitter, the feed URL began with a https:// and didn't work, but once changed to http:// it worked fine. Confused

Just to clarify, are we talking about reading feeds with nukePIE(tm) in blocks? Or, generating feeds with nukeFEED(tm)?

My particular issue was reading a feed into a block using nukePIE.

When I get home I will send you an example of the link that didn't work.

The sourceforge https:// link didn't work , i changed it back to http praying it would work and it did , but i know some site redirect all to secure pages. I didn't want secure traffic for these feed , however it would be a nice addition for banking/security feeds which are secure.
here is the link they provided me
https://sourceforge.net/export/rss2_keepsake.php?group_id=257683

you can check on nukepie

Thanks. If it works correctly with SimplePie, we should be able to make it work with nukePIE.
