RSS Troubles After Upgrade and New Blog Layout

Kmessinger: I deactivated Smith and still I have the problem.

Ipstenu: I am note sure that you mean – I have never done a .htaccess hack before so I guess I am just using it straight. I was using Feedburner Smith, but just deactivated it to see if that would fix the problem. Any thoughts on what I should do?

I still had redirection on. I actually removed both it and Feedburner Smith from the site to see if that would help. Still no luck.

There are two wp-rss files in the directory (wp-rss and wp-rss2). Both have the date of 14/10/2008 which does not make a lot of sense. Do you think that might be the issue – can I edit those or grab them from a fresh install and upload them in?

For more info – here is my htaccess – anything in here??

# END WordPress

I did have an old feed that I upgraded from some time ago. Is it possible to delete the htaccess and wordpress will recreate it?

I removed all the references and at least I was able to burn a new feed. I still cannot get to the old feed, but I will create a redirect that should help with the old subscribers.

Thanks everyone for your help!!!
