Title: RSS Comments Feed Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # RSS Comments Feed * [baudesign](https://wordpress.org/support/users/baudesign/) * (@baudesign) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-comments-feed/) * Hello everyone, * I am trying to get my blog up and running. Worked a bit on the theme,now I am trying to set up my feeds. * Here is the problem: * I cannot get anything working, simply put. I have tried to redirect my feeds throught FeedBurner using Steve Smith’s plugin ([http://orderedlist.com/articles/wordpress-feedburner-plugin/](http://orderedlist.com/articles/wordpress-feedburner-plugin/)). * In the process, I get this message: * Step 2: Setup Your FeedBurner Feed If you don’t already have one, create your FeedBurner account. Point the source feed to: [http://baudesign.ca/weblog/feedburner_333116/](http://baudesign.ca/weblog/feedburner_333116/) * …but the last URL leads to a dead end: NOT FOUND error. * Now, when I look into the source code of my weblog home page, found here [http://baudesign.ca/weblog/](http://baudesign.ca/weblog/) * I notice that the feed is located here: [http://baudesign.ca/weblog/index.php/feed/](http://baudesign.ca/weblog/index.php/feed/) * Indeed this last URL is working, but 2 questions arise here: * 1 Should’nt this URL be [http://baudesign.ca/weblog/feed/](http://baudesign.ca/weblog/feed/)? 2 And, most of all, why is this feed only displaying the COMMENTS instead of the ARTICLES themselves. * I have not been able to find the articles feed. * Thanks for your help Viewing 5 replies - 1 through 5 (of 5 total) * Thread Starter [baudesign](https://wordpress.org/support/users/baudesign/) * (@baudesign) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-comments-feed/#post-352678) * Wow! Thanks to Google, and thanks to [http://htmlfixit.com/?p=905](http://htmlfixit.com/?p=905) and thanks to incursio ([http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2379](http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2379)), I have found part of my problem. * This bug should be on the front page of the WordPress Website. * Now, if only I can get my feeds to work with FeedBurner. I will find out, oh! yea, I will. 🙂 * Thanks * [Chris_K](https://wordpress.org/support/users/handysolo/) * (@handysolo) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-comments-feed/#post-352679) * As I recall, Steve Smith’s plugin assumes that it can write to .htaccess. In fact, it assumes your host has and supports it (aka, no IIS and windows). * So, do you have an .htaccess file? Can the server write to it? * Don’t worry about the fake feed url that the plugin has you give Feedburner. That’s why it puts an entry in .htaccess for the redirect. * Thread Starter [baudesign](https://wordpress.org/support/users/baudesign/) * (@baudesign) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-comments-feed/#post-352683) * Yes, HandySolo, I have an .htaccess file, and yes I CHMOD it to 666, just in case. It is sill empty, whatever I try: deactivate then reactivate the plugin, change the permalinks structure (at the moment, I have the “Date and name based” option checked. * The randomly generated link: [http://baudesign.ca/weblog/feedburner_333116/](http://baudesign.ca/weblog/feedburner_333116/) … leads nowhere. * And my .htaccess file is still empty. 🙁 * [Chris_K](https://wordpress.org/support/users/handysolo/) * (@handysolo) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-comments-feed/#post-352684) * That link will always lead nowhere until there’s stuff in your .htaccess file. That much I can tell you. * Does your web server support (and have enabled) .htaccess? * Thread Starter [baudesign](https://wordpress.org/support/users/baudesign/) * (@baudesign) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-comments-feed/#post-352687) * To answer your question: * “Does your web server support (and have enabled) .htaccess?”, * Yes it does. I don’t know what to say, or where to look at. Why is this file still and always empty?
