   Back again.

   This time I have a problem I'm aware that others are having the same problem as well.

   I'm trying to fix up this error.

   XML Parsing Error: xml declaration not at start of external entity
   Location: http://crazyharp81602.byethost11.com/WordPress/index.php/feed/
   Line Number 2, Column 1:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
   ^
   Coming from this feed of mine.

   Now I have tried everything including getting rid of plugins to changing the functions.php on my Misty theme I'm using for my blog. Nothing's working! Can anyone please help me fix this?

   Never mind! I've finally found out what the problem was. For those of you who are struggling with trying to find out what the problem was even though there's nothing wrong with both your themes and your plugins, here's a clue: look into the permalink section of your dashboard to see if you have a different option set up for it. If you have, switch the permalink option back to default made and leave it there.
   That should fix up the problem involving the RSS error.

   those URLs redirect to a different host/site

   also your feed for wordpress is URL/feed not URL/index.php/feed or alternates like

   /?feed=rss2
   /?feed=atom

   even with permalinks my feeds work, I use month/day permalink in my posts and they have yet to cause feed errors for me.

   So how am I going to fix it so my feed address does just read URL/feed?
