wordpress is not creating a feed, any ideas? - GoFuckYourself.com

ok, i've NEVER in my dozens and dozens of dozens of wordpress installs experienced this problem, but wordpress is not creating the feed for subscribers. i just don't know what could be doing it. this is a client job and i got to get this figured out. could it be a serverside problem? should i look at changing permissions somewhere for the feed? i'm lost with this one, never seen it happen before...

check your html syntax ! <li> and <ul> !!!

it's also not creating permalinked pages on the blog. maybe i'm ignorant to something here, but what difference woul <li> and <ul> make as to the feed not being written? this is a backend problem, has nothing to do with the theme from what i can tell. changing themes makes no difference...

My site had the same fault, but here the problem was the html synatx, I forgot to close one <ul> tag and both browsers ( IE and FF ) didn't show the rss feed

check your permalink code/htaccess... for some reason some sites can't handle the /%date%/%postname%/ style and have to have index.php in front /index.php/%date%/%postname%/

do you get a feed by going to domain.com/?feed=rss2

yup i do get a feed visitting it that way. i had this mentioned to me by a friend on icq, and we're looking into getting .htaccess setup right with his host so the permalinks and feed can run smoothly.
