 * When I first started using WordPress (several months ago) RSS subscriptions via
   email worked. I was using the iDream theme, and it put the link in during install.
   I did not configure anything, it just worked. I still get feed updates as I requested
   back then.
 * A few weeks ago the owner of the site asked me to change themes and picked one
   from a Russian WordPress theme site (it is a Russian blog). It is called natural-
   health (the theme) and it too put in its own feed link in the header. I noticed
   at the time it did not work, so I rem’d it out since there were bigger things
   to fix and this function was not one the owner had requested.
 * Now she wants RSS subscriptions to work… and I am stumped. I have studied all
   of the files from both themes… and can’t seem to find the cause. When I attempt
   to sign-up using my email address I get a pop-up message saying “The feed does
   not have subscriptions by email enabled” in a Feedburner pop-up window. After
   several nights of fighting this I finally decided to break my own rule and ask
   for help. Normally I prefer to figure things out for myself. 😉
 * So if anyone has any ideas, please pass them along. I thought of contacting the
   theme designer, but I do not speak or read Russian which has already made this
   process much more difficult than it had to be. But the owner of the site is my
   fiance… so I do what I am told.
 * 🙂
 * Thanks for any advice you can give.
 * John
