 * Somehow, over the course of the last couple of days, our feed became completely
   empty of items. The feed is still valid, but no matter what we try, we can’t 
   get it to repopulate with content. Our site is a podcast network with twelve 
   different feeds that go out to iTunes and the like, so we use BluBrry Powerpress’
   category podcasting to separate the main feed by show. Before this happened, 
   I created a php.ini file in wp_admin to increase the upload limit and regenerated
   the .htaccess file after trying another upload limit increase method that just
   broke the site. Everything seems to be running fine other than content not appearing
   in our feeds. We’re frankly mystified as to how this happened, or how it’s even
   possible. Any insight would be very much appreciated.
 * Things we’ve tried:
 * deactivating all plugins
    switching back to the default template re-installing
   WP 4.0 regenerating the .htaccess file re-saving the permalinks structure renaming
   the feeds/slugs throwing things against the wall in impotent fury

 * Update – The Twenty Fourteen theme is the culprit, which is bizarre considering
   I’ve been using Powerpress with 2014 for months now with no issues. Any ideas
   on what the conflict could be? I’d really like to not have to flush months of
   site design down the toilet.

 * Try putting your feed url in this tool to see if it is being redirected to somewhere
   you are not expecting:
