    BlogRush told me that my “feed has an invalid format(parse error: no posts in feed)” but I entered my feed url in my browser and it showed up just fine.

    Can anyone please explain this to me?

    Thanks
    Tony

    Link to the feed in question?

    The links on the feed page are working. I tried to add my feed to my Yahoo page but yahoo didn’t recognize the feed as valid either.
    I’m so confused.

    Again, can you give us a link to the feed, so we can see firsthand what the problem is, if any.

    I was able to get your feed, but it took a while (15-20 seconds). Though, your main site as well as the blog come up fairly quickly, so this seems like something isolated to when WP queries for the feed.

    One possible cause is a corrupted database. Take a look at this post on checking for database “overhead” and optimizing the database. Make sure you back up your database.

    Also, I manually checked the code of your feed at W3’s validator: http://validator.w3.org/feed/. That validated with no problems and there’s no extra lines at the top, so the feed, once it’s generated, is okay.
