Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Hello all.

I'm having issues with the RSS Subscribe button on my page coming up with errors.
http://kelfae.com/blog/
This is what I get when I click on it:

XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity
Location: http://kelfae.com/blog/feed/
Line Number 6, Column 1:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
^


Please forgive my newbie-ness!
Help much appreciated, thanks.

when I hit the subscribe button I go to the subscribe page - when does the error happen and where do you see it?

How very odd!
I had a friend test it from another computer, and she had the same problem as I did.
Which was: when clicked on it takes me to a page with this url http://kelfae.com/blog/feed/ but with the error information on it, nothing else.

Windows Vista, with Firefox 3.5. I tried it in IE too, no luck there either - I get the same error (but with a "column number 3" instead of "column number 1" as in Firefox).

Thanks in advance!

did you customize your feed template (wp-rss2.php)?

You could try the solution at http://www.techdreams.org/blogging/f.../2457-20090504

Update: I just tested it on a 'pc' and I get the error aslo, however on my Mac, it works fine -

Solved, thankyou! I had to do it the long way around (editing them manually), but it has seems to have worked.

I shall be happy to donate when I have some funds, thanks so much for your help.

(P.S, I didn't customise my feed template, no)
