RSS Feed Not Working in 2.0.7 (7 posts)

    I am running 2.0.7 (limited to not upgrading to 2.1 because server requires running older MySQL for a certain web app...)

    The blog is http://zaclohrenz.com/blog.
    I wasn't even aware my feed was not working, because I have not changed anything I can think of that would mess with this.

    I guess give me the rundown of what I need to check out, etc to make sure everything is configured OK...

    I guess it linked my period with the URL too.
    Here is the URL again:

    Your feed starts with blank line which breaks it.

    Typically, that happens if a plugin (added any lately?) has extra whitespace or line feeds before the opening <?php or after the final closing ?>.

    I haven't added any lately... but I did disable them and found out which one was causing it...

    Optimal Title. I have V2.0 (the latest).
    Here is the website about it: http://elasticdog.com/2004/09/optimal-title/

    What do I need to edit to fix this? Do I have to ditch Optimal Title? I really like how it sticks the post name in front, rather than getting the breadcrum path to it.

    Perhaps I should give you what is inside my header.php title tag...
    <?php optimal_title(); ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> &raquo; Blog Archive <?php } ?>

    open up the plugin file with a text editor.

    Any blank lines at the very top or very end? If so, delete 'em.

    That was it ;)
    I didn't realize blank lines AFTER all the php statements would cause any problems, but it did have 3 lines of nothing at the end of the file.

    Thanks!
