   Hi All,

   I have an RSS feed generated from my blog posts. This feed goes to many places, including my LinkedIn profile and web site. All of a sudden, it stopped working - now in all the places that were fed, the message "The feed URL http://mysiteaddress/?feed=rss2 is inaccessible." displays.

   If I click on the RSS icon on the blog, the following message displays: "ERROR: rss2 is not a valid feed template".

   Any ideas why it happened?

   Many thanks in advance!

   I had the same issue for quite awhile. I finally got it resolved by using the following format:

   http://mysiteaddress/feed

   Any variation on that gave me that same "URL is inaccessible" error you were seeing. I used to be able to use the "only show posts tagged with linkedin" feature, but it no longer appears to work.

   Hi,

   It's http://writepoint.com/blog/?feed=rss2.

   The blog URL: http://writepoint.com/blog/. On the right, there is the RSS button, which worked before. Then all of a sudden, we began to get this message. As a result, the RSS also disappeared from LinkedIn.

   Many thanks in advance!

   Hi,

   Thank you for the response! Where did you change this? Have you done anything with the RSS files themselves?

   Thanks!
