RSS feed doesn’t work.

    My blog is up and running (http://mejones.net). Sort of. I am using Vladimir Prelovac’s theme “Amazing Grace”.

    I tried to add my blog to Facebook’s blog network — and was told it could not connect to my blog via rss — soooo… I went and clicked on the RSS links on the page and received the following error message:

    XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity
    Location: http://mejones.net/blog/feed/
    Line Number 2, Column 1:<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>

    Changing the theme makes no difference; I continue to get this message. If there is something in the admin panel I need to click to activate the rss feed, I cannot find it. Any help appreciated.

    For informational purposes…

    I re-pasted my new post from notepad and not word. and now all is well. Go figure!

    Ok I lied. I am still getting the error message when I click on the RSS links on my blog, although it is now sending the feed to my facebook page.

    Hello. I had the same error. The problem was that there was an errant blank space (or two, or three, or more) outside of the php script brackets <?php ?> in several of the *.php pages in my main WordPress directory. I am not sure which one it was, but once I made sure there was no “white space” outside of the brackets, my RSS feed worked fine. Hope this helps!

    The Yahoo! permalink plug in causes a blank line. I have taken steps to work around it.

    Thanks.
