    My blog is at http://techkumar.com/, i have edited a plugin using plugin editor inside dashboard. I have added HTML div tags to the starting and ending of the plugin and saved it. The next morning i found that my feed was not working properly, showing some errors, i checked the feed using Feed Validator i found the HTML tags that i have added to plugin. Now when i open the plugin in plugin editor i dont find those tags any more. I have checked most of the files index.php, header.php, and they simply dont show any such HTML tags at all. I am not sure how to remove those HTML tags from the site feed. Please help me.

    If you check the source code of http://techkumar.com, you will see that the <Div> tags are also there. Having the <div> tags before the <!DOCTYPE> tag will definitely not be validated HTML.

    Have you tried opening the actual plugin file in a text editor and changing it there? Or you can re-download the plugin and override your current copy. Hope that works!

    The plugin editor itself not showing any HTML tags, i have downloaded the plugin file and opened in Dreamweaver but it didnt had any such tags.

    I have deleted the plugin still no it shows errors. Please tell me which file contains those HTML tags. I have tried most of the files.

    Which plugin do you think it’s coming from? Can you search for ‘zd_CommentsWidget_widget’ in all your files — themes and plugins and see if anything comes up?

    I’m pretty sure you checked this, but can you double check if you are you editing/deleting files on the correct server?

    Do you have any other information that we can help you pinpoint the problem with?

    How can i perform search on the server? Yes i am editing and deleting on the correct server. I think the HTML tags have added to the core WordPress installed files, what do you say?

    When i check my blog home page(http://techkumar.com/) source i am seeing

    <div class=”zd_CommentsWidget_widget”>
    </div>

    these HTML tags at the top. I think since the header file has .php extension it is starting with <php tags, may be i should change the header file from .php to .html , what do you say? Is it safe to change index.php extension?
