   Hi there,
   So I fixed my RSS by updating the permalinks, but now it doesn't seem the subscribe button actually subscribes. It validated fine, but when I push the subscribe button the screen flashes like it did something but it doesn't show up in Sage (My RSS Reader). If I use the tool that searches the site for RSS feeds in Sage, my feed shows up and is fully functional after I select it. Should I be using a different feed reader? Is there something I need to change in one of the files? Give me a hand (and Brain) here please:)
   Here's my site

   It looks like you have spaces in your RSS feed link.

   it'd help if you posted the code that isn't working.

   Mr. Doug,

   Please forgive me as I have little experience with RSS. Would that code be in my WP-RSS file or my sidebar.php file? or somewhere else? Your help is very appriciated, have a great day!

   Whatever is generating those feed links is generating the wrong links. What's the code you have in the sidebar?

   Hi there,
   Here is the code in my sidebar php relating to my RSS subscribe button.

   <ul class="icons"><li class="listHeader"><h2><?php _e('Subscribe'); ?></h2>
   
   <li><a>" title="Posts RSS feed" class="iconrss">rss posts</a></li>
   <li><a>" title="Posts RSS feed" class="iconrss">rss comments</a></li>

   Hopefully that's what you were asking for.
   Thanks a lot,
   Justin

   P.S. It seems as though its trying to link to a file on my desktop. What do I set it to link to to fix it?

   ahh I messed up and the code didn't show, here it is.
   file:///Macintosh%20HD/Users/justinparra/Desktop/rss2_url
file:///Macintosh%20HD/Users/justinparra/Desktop/comments_rss2_url

   these are the links. I don't know how they got changed to that. But What should they be put back to?
