I was using CFFEED fine for the past few days pulling the latest posts and displaying them on the front page. This morning I find the site was running an error despite the use of cftry and cfcatch. The error was saying "can't connect to the specified port" or something to that affect. I researched it a little bit and found out it has something to do with ports being blocked (possibly my host provider). I noticed that their site is loading a little slow and something was failing in their forum. So maybe it's just a temporary problem. I even tried a CFHHTP request to the atom feed and that worked but it went very slow and the load time was just too long for the front page.
It will be really frustrating though if the feed no longer works because they blocked something and didn't bother to tell me. I see nothing in their FAQ about CFFEED being blocked though. Time will tell. For now the blog posts are off the front page. I'll check later tonight and see if it's working again.
