# rss force_feed()?

 * 1) When I add RSS to my web site, I got “use force_feed()” error message.
    I 
   am thinking function.php, but where exactly, and what exactly do i add? And this
   is when i finally need child theme? I just started and haven’t used child theme
   yet.
 * 2) some RSS just shows URL, not some text from an article.
    What can I do about
   it?
 * Thanks

 * ok, so if it says “not a feed, but only URL”, then what do I do?
    Some web sites
   work fine with their URL, and now I see some don’t. So, what now, if I want that
   web site on my feed?
