Title: RSS Feed Problems Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # RSS Feed Problems * Resolved [roblewis100](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roblewis100/) * (@roblewis100) * [19 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-problems-1-3/) * I know there are a number of issues already raised (and some resolved) to do with RSS feeds, but I’ve searched for others with the same problem as me with no luck. * I originally realised there was a problem with my RSS feed after FeedBurner failed to update following a recent post. * If I view the raw feed ([http://wv4.co.uk/feed/](http://wv4.co.uk/feed/)) in Firefox I can see the most recent post on their – everything looks fine. * However, the raw feed in Internet Explorer has not updated – the same happens if I run it through FeedValidator.org, and FeedBurner. * The original problem occured with WP 2.0, I’ve just upgraded to 2.0.3 with no difference. I’ve also tried deactivating the various plugins I use, but nothing has solved it. * It seems strange that one browser sees the updated feed, but another browser doesn’t, when they’re looking at the same page. Anyone got any clues? * Cheers, * Rob.

Then what happens? * Thread Starter [roblewis100](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roblewis100/) * (@roblewis100) * [19 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-problems-1-3/#post-418310) * Don’t worry – that’s one of the first things I tried. It’s not a cache problem, it’s something to do witht he way IE (and the FeedValidator & FeedBurner) are reading the feed, which must be different to Firefox. * Very strange though, unless I’m missing something obvious. It would be nice for someone who has neve viewed the site before to confirm that there is a problem and it’s not just me going mad. * Rob. * [Chris_K](https://wordpress.org/support/users/handysolo/) * (@handysolo) * [19 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-problems-1-3/#post-418311) * I’ll worry – it sure smells like an IE cache issue. * I viewed in IE, Opera 9 and FF1.5. Saw the same articles in all 3. * Keep in mind that there’s not a “RSS” or xml file laying around waiting to be requested. It is rendered on the fly each time a browser requests it (thus the concern about local/browser caching). * Thread Starter [roblewis100](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roblewis100/) * (@roblewis100) * [19 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-problems-1-3/#post-418530) * OK – so can I ask which was the latest article you saw? Seems like it is not just IE that has the problem, because FeedBurner and FeedValidator see the out of date feeds too. * Thanks for your help, * Rob. * [Chris_K](https://wordpress.org/support/users/handysolo/) * (@handysolo) * [19 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-problems-1-3/#post-418532) * “Friendly Database Errors In WordPress” appears to be the newest. Which is also what I saw when I went to your site ([http://wv4.co.uk/](http://wv4.co.uk/)). Sound about right? * Thread Starter [roblewis100](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roblewis100/) * (@roblewis100) * [19 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-problems-1-3/#post-418575) * Crikey, the plot thickens – looks like it’s not just the RSS feed that’s the problem then. When viewing the site in Firefox 1.5.0.4 the latest post (10th July) is showing – in IE and Opera the previous post shows. * Does this provide any more clues? * [Chris_K](https://wordpress.org/support/users/handysolo/) * (@handysolo) * [19 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-problems-1-3/#post-418578) * It tells me we’re not looking at the same urls, at a guess! * What url are you using to see that current post? * Thread Starter [roblewis100](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roblewis100/) * (@roblewis100) * [19 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-problems-1-3/#post-418628) * Right, I’ve got it – for some reason, the new post has been marked as “private”, and must have only been showing in Firefox as I was logged in there. * I feel stupid now – thanks for all of your help. * Rob.
