feeds not working after 2.8 upgrade (3 posts)

    I'm running my feeds through feedburner, but it looks to me like my site's feeds are not formatting properly anymore after my upgrade to 2.8. The feed validator shows me this...

    This feed does not validate.

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

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

    "application/xml" media type is not specific enough [help]

    This part is really getting over my head, but it looks like it is an issue with some sort of bad characters... likely caused by formatting in MS Word. Well, I don't do that... all of my writing and editing is done directly in WordPress.

    Any thoughts? Direction to point me in (that I can understand)?

    Me too, what happened to the RSS Feed for my site?

    It was working under WP 2.7, as this URL:

    I figured it out, for me anyway. I forgot my .htaccess file, and once I reloaded it, the problem went away.
