In reply to: Is it possible to get RSS Feeds to Work?Finally some good news. Sorry to reply to my own post.
Ok, I got an email from someone on another site who asked me about what plugins I have installed, and when I mentioned GD Press Tools, he advised me to delete it. I did, and now my basic RSS functions are working properly. I’m going to fiddle with feedburner again and see if I can’t get it to validate and work.

In reply to: How to add feeds to feedburnerHmm, yes ‘if’ permalinks are enabled/used. Otherwise it seems happy without this.
Was there some other point to this step?

In reply to: How to add feeds to feedburnerSure, tis the season 😉 Thanks I’ll ignore the apostrophe.
Whats in the .htaccess file? Just some errordocument entries and some ip bans. thats it at the moment, the above I’ve removed.

In reply to: How to add feeds to feedburnerI see this isn’t as easy as everyone makes it out to be. Any more suggestions?

In reply to: How to add feeds to feedburnerSince this gave me something to work on, I attempted to check the “XHTML 1.0 transitional” as suggested by this site: http://samdevol.com/wordpress-troubleshooting-i-have-to-validate-oh-my/
Of course I found that there were errors. 242 to be precise.
This is a bit overwhelming, and I’m wondering how to go about debugging this? How do I know which is (theme/plugin/base) to blame?

In reply to: How to add feeds to feedburnerOk, fixed the error handler, sort of. It’s now verifying its a 404 error.

In reply to: How to add feeds to feedburnerOk, going to options-reading.php I see that syndication feeds show the most recent is set to ‘2’. Of course it’s actually showing the ‘least recent’.
Going to options-permalink.php I changed common settings to ‘Default’ as I assume this is what you are asking me to do to turn off permalinks. One of the plugins generated a Mysql error, but reloading the page, seemed to show the change has taken affect.
Now if I click on the RSS feed link at the top, I get a really bad error. And the redirect is no longer working!!
I do see an <link> entry as above, but its showing the apostrophe as “& # 0 3 9 ;” and not ‘, I’m wondering if this is a problem?
The feed link is the same, but now appears broken (and the error page is broken too).

In reply to: How to add feeds to feedburnerThanks. At the moment I have no feed related plugins installed. So I’m strickly using the default (whatever) with the WP package.
Commenting out the above rewrite code, the above errors as described already are the situation. But let me answer your pointed questions:
1) Feedvalidator.org reports this error regardless:
“Sorry — This feed does not validate ** Server returned HTTP Error 404:Not Found”
2) What feedburner feed? I still haven’t added my feeds to feedburner (what I’m trying to accomplish)
“An error occurred connecting to the URL: Error getting URL: 404 – Not Found”So forgive my ignorance, but since ‘therein lies my problem’ could you elaborate for me?
The feed in question is for http://jamesfriesen.net
I’ve tried: http://jamesfriesen.net, jamesfriesen.net/rss, jamesfriesen.net/?feed=rss most recently.
I’ve also tried passing the php files in the root folder; wp-atom.php, wp-commentsrss2.php, wp-feed.php to no avail.

In reply to: How to add feeds to feedburnerThanks, but does anyone know anything that ‘actually works’? I’ve tried these already, like I said I’ve spent a LOT of time getting this to work, and I’m a bit surprised it’s not clearer.
So for giggles I (re)added this, but nothing has changed. I still get stale old feed data to either google homepage or google reader. Feedburner still 404’s.
