Hi Thavm,
You have a blank line outside your PHP tags in one of your theme files. This causes this error. You’ll need to find the theme file in question and remove the blank line.

I deleted all blank lines in the theme files outside the php tags (about 40 different files all manually checked, including the functions.php file), nothing changed,…
then I deleted all blank lines, also the ones between the php tags, nothing changed,….
there are also php files in the subfolders: inc, framework and css. Could there be the one causing problems? There are just so many files to check and the idea that when I mis one I have to start all over again is making me feel a little desperate.
Would using this ba a good idea? It claims to clean up the blank lines,…

Hi Thavm,
I don’t have any suggestions for an easy way to find and delete whitespace from PHP files. I’ve not tried that plugin before, if you try it then make sure you take a full backup of your site and theme before trying.
The problem is still there and it’s definitely caused by a blank line in one of your theme’s PHP files.

I think it worked!!!! Thank you so much!
(now I just need to go through the site so see if I didn’t break anything)
Yep, your XML sitemap is now working. Any time you see that issue its because of whitespace in PHP files which will break any XML.
