# RSS FEED not found error message

 * Recent observation of some attempts by site visitor to receive RSS feeds resulting
   in the following error message displayed on my Dashboard:
    ————————————————— 
   WP 321, 20-10 theme, plug-ins up-to-date enabled, nothing else —————————————————
 * **RSS Error**: A feed could not be found at [http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?scoring=d&ie=utf-8&num=10&output=rss&partner=wordpress&q=link:http://wp.joshuatreestar.com/](http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?scoring=d&ie=utf-8&num=10&output=rss&partner=wordpress&q=link:http://wp.joshuatreestar.com/)
 * I’m not at all familiar enough with WP to diagnose what this means. Is there “
   something” I need to “activate”, implement, install? From what I’ve read in a
   couple WP manuals including latest edition of WP for Dummies, this RSS item should
   be pretty automatic without user intervention.
 * Other RSS topics on this “.org” facility are anywhere from a year to 4 years 
   old and where those topics have since been closed.
 * My site is a “local news oriented blog” without bells ‘n whistles. Appreciate
   a little help. Thanks

 * Thanks ESMI for a prompt reply
 * That works for “me”, the site owner, and it works. Now, I have no clue what my
   site visitor sees… or gets when they attempt to subscribe to my RSS feeds.
 * What I do **not** “see” on my site is the RSS bug, anywhere, which implies that
   RSS feeds are not available from my site.
 * Although, the RSS bug is present on the browser (IE 8)
 * That error message is what is displayed in the “INCOMING LINKS” panel.
 * Any additional thoughts? –BF

 * There’s an Entries RSS link in your sidebar, if that’s what you mean.

 * Hmmmm Thanks for the reply.
 * Let me restate the apparent problem. “I” the site owner/admin (etc) am not trying
   to “subscribe to my own site’s RSS feeds.” Someone “out there” is trying.
 * This is what I “see” on my Dashboard in the “Incoming Links” panel:
    ———— RSS
   Error: A feed could not be found at [http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?scoring=d&ie=utf-8&num=10&output=rss&partner=wordpress&q=link:http://wp.joshuatreestar.com](http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?scoring=d&ie=utf-8&num=10&output=rss&partner=wordpress&q=link:http://wp.joshuatreestar.com).————
 * My question is: Have I done something, or not done something to cause this error
   to appear? Or, the question could be: What causes this error to appear and why?
   Or… is this “error” something to ignore?
 * Thanks
    –BF
