RSS feed fails to load

1 Jul 26, 2005 20:10    

Just in the past couple days, I've been having problems with Mozilla and my RSS feed. If I use the RSS feed link on my site to create a Live Boomark, everything works fine. If I click the blue RSS box on the status bar in Firefox, Firefox makes a live boomark that links to the wrong feed. In fact, there is no feed at that location all...it just links to the directory in which my b2 skin is located (I'm using WPC_Rubric). Any suggestions on why Mozilla is doing this? The only changes I've made recently is to add a flickr badge to my template, and it seems like the RSS button in FIrefox hasn't worked since then.

Removing the flickr badge does not resolve the problem, however. Thank you in advance for any help.

Here's the problem:

<link rel="alternate" type="text/xml" title="RDF" href="" />
<link rel="alternate" type="text/xml" title="RSS .92" href="" />
<link rel="alternate" type="text/xml" title="RSS 2.0" href="" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom" href="" />

Each feed's url should be inside the quotes that follow 'href'.

The problem is in the skin you're using. I viewed you site with the custom skin:

http://www.sodsbrood.com/pilgrim/?skin=custom

and it's working fine with that skin. Compare the first section of /skins/custom/_main.php to /skins/WPC_Rubric/_main.php and you'll see what code you're missing.

Thank you so much. I'll give that a try.
