Looks like code from your theme’s header.php near the top.
Well… yes and no.
Here’s my header.php
<head>
<?php wp_head(); ?>
<title>DEEPERDEVOTION.com :: Daily Devotions and Online Resources for Christian Students</title>
and here’s the formated source
<head>
<link rel="EditURI" type="application/rsd+xml" title="RSD" href="http://deeperdevotion.com/xmlrpc.php?rsd" />
[podpress js and css]
<title>DEEPERDEVOTION.com :: Daily Devotions and Online Resources for Christian Students</title>
That is your theme’s entire header.php?
No… I’m just demonstrating that the only thing between <head> and <title> is wp_head() in my php file.
That means that the link I can’t find must be associated with <?php wp_head(); ?>
… but where exactly, I can’t tell.
Here’s a workaround… although I’d still like to know where it’s coming from if anybody happens to know. Samboll, thanks for your help.

Well, the reason I ask is I have stuff like:
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS 2.0" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" />
<link rel="alternate" type="text/xml" title="RSS .92" href="<?php bloginfo('rss_url'); ?>" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom 0.3" href="<?php bloginfo('atom_url'); ?>" />
and this in another:
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> RSS Feed" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" />
Surely you have something similar – or am I totally misunderstanding…happens a lot.
looks like the line is from rsd_link in the wp core at wp-includes/general-template.php
@samboll: I have those too. They’re just below the <title> tag and I knew they weren’t affecting my code.
@charle97: Thanks, that did it… and on a dangerous side note, i just found out that many files are missing from my local backup of my wp_includes folder (which is why grep didn’t find it) so thanks… that would have been bad if I ever wiped out my live folder thinking I had a suitable backup.
The code you speak of is generated by a function called rsd_link() in /wp-includes/general-template.php and then added to the header using an action in /wp-includes/default-filters.php (line 159 for wp 2.2.1).
The nice thing about actions you can undo them in plugins. So make yourself a plugin file and add the following code:
remove_action('wp_head','rsd_link');
And it’s gone.
Clever, arthurl. Thanks for that information.
