Seems Seznam.cz has shut down the RSS reader as a part of their redesign and "http://www.seznam.cz/pridej-zpravy?url=%s&sourceid=firefox" now returns error 404. I have to get in touch with Seznam ASAP, verify if they have disabled the reader forever or no and find a replacement eventually.

New UI is here https://www.seznam.cz/#nastaveni/pridat-boxik, but according to Seznam.cz chat support, there is no way to add a feed using arguments in URL, which is what we need.

May I remove Seznam.cz feed reader and find a replacement until they add the feature back? Or just without replacement for now?

Both works, just removing is definitely faster.

Hello,

I'm a Project manager for Seznam.cz This issue was raised on our help-desk.
1. The URL http://www.seznam.cz/pridej-zpravy?url= is indeed deprecated and has been switched OFF.
2. There's a new URL wich works similarly. Try https://www.seznam.cz/#pridat-boxik/95900 where the number is the ID ox the widget to be added.
3. Today (13.1.2016), we're releasing a feature, that let's you generate these links from here https://www.seznam.cz/#nastaveni/pokrocile 

- What are you trying to achieve and is the new way sufficient for you?
- Where was the old link used and how? 

Cheers,
Marek Vacek
Hi Marek. Thank you for your quick reaction.

It's basically the "Live bookmark" feature described here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/live-bookmarks (Czech translation https://support.mozilla.org/cs/kb/zive-zalozky). In step 3., you can also choose external services instead of Firefox "Live bookmarks".

The way how it works is, we have a URL for each external service (see Comment 0), which includes %s placeholder. When the user choose external service instead of "Live bookmarks" and clicks the "Subscribe" button, Firefox brings him to the URL with %s replaced by the RSS feed URL he wants to subscribe.

For example, if you want to subscribe http://feeds.feedburner.com/Mozillacz and choose Seznam, you are taken to https://www.seznam.cz/nove-nastaveni?rss_url=http%3A%2F%2Ffeeds.feedburner.com%2FMozillacz&rss_title=#obsah which does not exist anymore.
That also mean Firefox cannot use internal Seznam ID based URL format.
I understand, we'll try to make a new URL, which will be able handling RSS adress directly. Give us 2 weeks please to make it live. If I don't get back in here to report on status you can reach me on marek.vacek@firma.seznam.cz

Cheers,
Marek
Thank you Marek. Adding note to my calendar to get in touch before the end of January.
Hi Marek. Have you made some progress with the new feed reader URL?

Let's remove it for now, so we are not blocked by this. We can put the new version back anytime again.
