    I've been checking if everythings fine after the update to 2.2, and I'm seeing something terrible: Feedburner's FeedSmith is not working anymore!

    Anyone with the same problem?

    it works fine for me..

    see if you have the previous version installed also
    http://orderedlist.com/wordpress-plugins/feedburner-plugin/

    deactivate, then delete it..and install the new version:
    http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/help/wordpress_quickstart

    [alone..]

    Thanks, pictorus. However, this is the latest version and there has been no previous version installed (on this particular wordpress installation). On the other hand, it's good to know the latest version works with wp 2.2.

    Actually, I had the new version already installed (notice that I call it Feedburner's Feedsmith in the first post). I tried reinstalling and cleaning caches and everything, still does'nt work :-(

    Rudeworks, fwiw, I haven't had a chance to try it again. If I learn anything enlightening when I do, I'll post it here.

    Rudeworks, I found the problem on my client's site. Basically, the theme she's using (Green River) uses a feed: URI in index.php where it should just be the http: URI for the feeds. Check your theme's files for a similar problem. If you need more help than that, let me know.

    This is the code from the header of my website:

    <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS 2.0" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" />

    That should be working ok, is it?

    Yes, rudeworks, that is the correct code.

    I can't get this crap plugin to work either. I compared my header.php file to the IE source file and notice that this code

    "<link rel="EditURI" type="application/rsd+xml" title="RSD" href="http://mysite.com/xmlrpc.php?rsd" />"

    pops in under the RSS Feed url. Could this be causing the problem?

    Ok I was able to fix the problem on my site. All I had to do is:

    *Go to feedburner.com
    *Click on your feed (where you see all stats and all that)
    *Click "Edit Feed Details…"
    *Where it says "Original Feed:" type in 'http://YOURSITE.com/feed/'
    *Save it

    That's all, after I did that, everything worked out fine. I didn't have to edit my theme.

    Hope that helps you out.

    That didn't work for me. I never had a problem with them before, until setting up WP on my own server account.
    Guess I'll cancel Feedburner and just go with what's there.
