I am wondering if there is a way that I can temporarily unsubscribe from a feed, and then later on, go back into my newsgator account and then enable the feed's subscription, without having to go to the feed's website.

I collect several sports feeds, and would like a way to temporarily disable the feeds being sent to my newsgator account, until AFTER I watch the tivoed game, which might be the next morning/afternoon. It would be a bit awkward to go to the original website again and again to re-subscribe. Is there a way I can do this, while keeping the feed as a subscribed feed?

This is not an option we offer.

Thanks,

Actually, it can sorta be done with locations - just go to Newsgator Online, click on Settings in the upper right, select Edit Location tab, find the location you don't want the feed to appear, click on the Feeds link, then uncheck the feeds you don't want to appear.

You will have to do this for each location you regularly use, however. (IE, if you use NGO, NNW for iPhone and FD, you'll have to edit the location for each and check/uncheck the feeds you do/don't want to see)

The only thing I'm not sure of is if you re-check a feed, if it shows up with the unread posts that were collected while it wasn't showing at that location as long as they weren't marked as read by another client (I think it does, I've just never tested it...).

OK. I just tried that and I'll see if it works. This is actually exactly what I was looking for. I'll post back in a day or two, how it works. Thanks.
