Rss link to html doc not website?

In the attempt to have my rss feed link to html docs within my app rather than going to my Wordpress site, I created a yahoo pipe. The pipe replaces each of the original links to the website with a links to a specific html doc in buzztouch app. Because new posts will have the same title as the post they replace, and will be in a category also named the same as its title (example, title Tomatoes, category: Tomatoes)I thought they would still work with this pipe. However, as soon as the post is updated, the original link/URL has a number added and the pipe doesn't recognize the new link, so it links to the website. Does anyone happen to know if there is a wildcard I could use with pipes to make this work? Also the html docs within the app is a page that has rssincludes script of latest post, as well as static info.

I keep waiting for someone to answer... I'm not really sure if I can help; I don't use the RSS plugin... But I did take a look at the Yahoo Pipes. Rather interesting, I thought. I sort of see what you're trying to do, I'm not sure how you're trying to do it. Could you explain a bit? Cheers! -- Smug

Thanks. I may have figured it out by using the String Replace filter in Yahoo Pipes. What I'm trying to do is use the BTM RSS plugin, but rather than have the link take the user to my website, I want to redirect them to an html doc within the app that shows the Rss feed (script from Rssinclude) along with some static info.
