   I used to be able to submit my podcast or blog feeds from WordPress into my Podcast Directory software (they ended with a real page url, like "?feed=rss2"). Now, with the url ending in "/feed/", my programmers say it is calling an .exe function to create the feed on the fly, and the program can't recognize the feed.

   Is there a way to create an absolute feed url that we can use? Or will every single WordPress user be forced to go through Feedburner to get a url that works? (that's what I have to do at present).

   Or, what php code would we need to change on our end to be able to recognize it as an RSS feed?

   No, that is the link to a home page. See:

   I think the wp-feed.php is what creates the feed.

   Thats not a standard behaviour, what you have going on there. You're using a plugin, perhaps, thats redirecting the feed.

   wp-rss2.php, wp-rss.php, and wp-atom.php are core wordpress files that performs NO redirection on their own.

   Case in point, my brand new 2.2 install w/o any plugins to mess things up:

   http://bigbox.village-idiot.org/wp-rss.php
   http://bigbox.village-idiot.org/wp-atom.php

   Even WITH pretty permalink enabled, those three pages, called like my example, will still return standard feeds -- as long as nothing else is interfering.

   I suggest disabling whatever plugins you are using that might be affecting your feed, and retrying those links.

   Hi, it is my blog [www.doitmyselfblog.com] with the non-standard feed behaviour and I have no clue. Currently I have the Askimet and MyBlogLog plugins activated, and it is still not working. Any other suggestions? I would like to get this figured out.

   Problem solved (I think)! http://www.doitmyselfblog.com/wp-rss.php now seems to work. No clue what I did.
