    Hi,

    3 days ago (althoughI didn't find out until just now) my post RSS Feed stopped working.

    To my knowledge I haven't amde any changes to the site, although obviously it possible/probable!

    I also noticed that one feature I added manually stopped working at around the same time. I had to manually upload a new kses.php file again. Now I am 100 percent sure I didn't chnage that.

    When I try to view my feed:
    http://www.planetphillip.com/feed/

    I receieve this message:

    XML Parsing Error: no element found
    Location: http://www.planetphillip.com/feed/
    Line Number 1, Column 1:

    The comments feed:
    http://www.planetphillip.com/comments/feed/
    validates correctly.

    This URL works but only gives the excerpt even when set to full content:
    http://www.planetphillip.com/feed/rss/

    I have tried replacing the rss.php file incase it somehow became corrupt, but this didn't help.

    I have removed the contnet of the last posts since the feed worked, in case something in there was causing a problem, same result: no change.

    A Little more background.

    I recently moved hosts and found the site slow and buggy. It would often not finish loading pages. I removed all plugins to see if that made a difference and it didn't. It made me realize how many plugins I had and I have now reduced the amount I use, but this was over a week ago, so I don't believe there is a connection there.

    I also updated my robots.txt file to stop hotlinking, but I can't see how that would change things.

    Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    TIA

    That is not what I see.

    samboll, I don't understand your reply.

    I never claimed that feed url validated if that's what you mean. I know it's missing the language part but I have no idea how to fix it.

    My problem is with the normal feed URl, that was working until 3 days ago:
    http://www.planetphillip.com/feed/

    And suddenly today with absolutely no changes from me it started working again. That's just spooky.
