• Are there any plugins that allow me to post XML feeds on my website? So far I have only been able to find RSS plugins. Thanks!

    RSS feeds are XML feeds.

    That’s what I wanted to know. I was wondering because I can’t get any aggregators to work on my site

    Which ones have you tried?

    CG-feedreader: I was getting a “cannot open” message
    I just tried Carthicks Fof one also but I could not add anything to my subscriptions. It wasn’t able to connect to ANY feeds.

    What I am looking for is a plugin that would allow me to post feed titles on my sidebar from a number of different game sites. Then either they could link to the original article or the original article would be posted on my site on a seperate page. I don’t know how much of this is possible or if there is anything that would somewhat fit my needs but I would really appreciate any help.

    I just tried to get feeds to your site — http://www.continuous-play.com/ I assume — using FeedDemon and I couldn’t do it either manually or by having FeedDemon auto-discover the feed.

    So what does this mean? I am a feed virgin and have just come to experiment with them in the last few weeks

    Oh, sorry…I was just confirming that I couldn’t get a feed from your site. πŸ™‚

    Hmmm….in your index.php file, there seems to be a blank line at the very top of the page. This is above the DOCTYPE declaration. Delete that line, and then see what happens.

    I just get an internal server error when trying to access your different feed files. If you can, try reuploading these to your blog’s root directory:

    wp-feed.php
    wp-rss.php
    wp-rss2.php
    wp-atom.php

    If that doesn’t solve the problem, I’d suggest contacting your host and see if they can find out the what the server error actually is.

    Okay I got rid of the blank line and re-uploaded the feed files. Is this going to help me get feeds on my site or is this just to make my sites RSS valid?

    The point of the files is to allow others to read your site through an RSS reader. In any case, same issue. I go here:

    http://www.continuous-play.com/wp-rss.php

    And I get:

    “500 Internal Server Error
    The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

    Please contact the server administrator and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.”

    “Okay I got rid of the blank line and re-uploaded the feed files. Is this going to help me get feeds on my site or is this just to make my sites RSS valid?”

    It will help with site validation, period. The blank link at the start would likely cause a problem with some browsers detecting which DOCTYPE you are using.
