 * Hello –
 * I’ve browsed the troubleshooting forum to review other RSS feed threads and haven’t
   found a solution so I started a new one.
 * My blog’s feed is at: ttp://yepyep.gibbs12.com/?feed=rss2
    My blog is: [http://yepyep.gibbs12.com](http://yepyep.gibbs12.com)
 * The error it gives me is:
    XML Parsing Error: xml declaration not at start of
   external entity Location: [http://yepyep.gibbs12.com/?feed=rss2](http://yepyep.gibbs12.com/?feed=rss2)
   Line Number 2, Column 1:<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
 * I imagine there’s something simple coding-wise that I need to fix for this, but
   I’m not sure what it is. Any help or suggestions for fixing my feed would be 
   greatly appreciated.
 * Thank you!

 * Thank you!
 * After a few hours of seemingly trying everything, deleting the white space at
   the end of the wp-config file did the trick.
 * WordPress rocks and so does this forum!
