   Hi,

   My RSS feed (Feedburner) is not working and will not validate when I try to fix it at Feedburner. My feed address is http://feeds.feedburner.com/SweetFinds. Below is the error message I get. I'm not a web designer, so I'm not quite sure how to fix it/what code needs to be fixed. Any suggestions? Thanks!

   Server returned HTTP Error 404: Not Found [help]

   Yes, the second feed does seem to work, though it doesn't validate in Feedburner.

   Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

   I'm actually getting a different message when I try to validate http://feeds.feedburner.com/SweetFinds in Feedburner now:

   This feed does not validate.

   *

   line 1, column 0: XML parsing error: <unknown>:18:2: no element found [help]

   <?php

   In addition, interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendation.

   *

   Feeds should not be served with the "application/x-httpd-php5" media type [help]

   Source: http://feeds.feedburner.com/SweetFinds

   1. <?php
   2. /**
   3. * Front to the WordPress application. This file doesn't do anything, but loads
   4. * wp-blog-header.php which does and tells WordPress to load the theme.
   5. *
   6. * @package WordPress

   8.
   9. /**

   14. define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
   15.
   16. /** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
   17. require('./wp-blog-header.php');
   18. ?>

   did you replace http://www.sweetfindsblog.com/posts/feed/ with http://www.sweetfindsblog.com/feed/ in Feedburner?

   I just did a quick test with http://www.sweetfindsblog.com/feed/ and feedburner recognized it fine:

   http://feeds.feedburner.com/sweetfindsblog/vYSE

   Weird -- I hadn't replaced it before, but I did just now, and everything works perfectly again. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I really appreciate it.
