sigh - so i changed one thing in my feed, the xmlns, to https:// instead of http. that must be the issue
woot - fixed the feed. source picked up the new item, and ONLY the new item. thank you!
back to my ‘2 triggers’ thing. i edited my workflow, clicked remove trigger on the blank one. but i cant deploy, its grayed out
Modifying triggers don’t require a workflow deploy. They’re actually saved separate from the workflow, so there’s nothing to deploy when you add / remove triggers, which is why the button is greyed out
The blank square at the top just indicates that you haven’t selected a trigger yet, but once you add a trigger, it should be replaced with icon of the chosen trigger
Sounds like things are working now though!
so did i add one, but not complete? it feels like my workflow has 2 triggers now, with one being undefined that i cant delete 
If you refresh the page, do you still see the blank box?
If so, when you select the blank trigger, do you see the option to remove it?
yep - i swear i tried refreshing. anyway, done and thank you for the rss source fix!
