 * I have a problem with my rss feed. Some Spanish acents are not showing correct
   on my feed. On blog it’s OK.
    This problem happens since I last changed my theme,
   but I don’t know how to fix it. Could anyone help?

    See the problem at [http://janes.es/feed/](http://janes.es/feed/)

 * Don’t know for sure, but I can see that you are running an old version of WordPress(
   2.2.2). You really should upgrade to 2.3.3.

 * I still don’t know, but you’re running the feed through feedburner. Have you 
   tried disabling the feedburner plugin and looking at your feed directly instead
   of letting it go through feedburner first?

 * It does not seem to be this is the problem…
    Look: [http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fjanes.es%2Ffeed%2F](http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fjanes.es%2Ffeed%2F)

 * That means nothing, the feedburner redirection would still send the post-feedburner
   content to the validator.
 * Also, the feed looks fine to me now. What did you do?

 * I think it’s solved now.
    You were right about the feed validator…
 * Anyway…
 * Feedburner make the feed validator and if there’s any mistake, then change the
   encoding to ISOblabla rather than UTF-8, so there’s a problem.
 * Solving the feed validator issues worked.
