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

Very simple, have some feeds I'd like to feature on my site. I added them via the widget system to the right bar, set the feed URLS, gave them names, and I don't see the RSS widget / plugin work at all on the right side.

Is there something else I need to enable?

Thank you in advance.

What version?
What is the URL?
What widget did you use?
What did you put in it?

Version: WP - 3.2.1, Atahualpa - 3.6.7
URL: Site - http://cococentral.com/, RSS (1 of 3) - feed://rss.gmane.org/gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco
Widget: Used the default "RSS" widget that comes with the theme.

Attached screenshot for settings. Pretty basic stuff. I'm a seasoned video game programmer and WP enthusiast. Haven't used an RSS widget in the past though.

You don't have the 3.6.7. Patches applied. Go to the 'New Versions & Updates' forum and apply them ( there are 5 but number 2 has been incorporated in one of the others)

Your feed must be wrong. try this and see if you get feeds from google
HTML Code:

Really odd, you're URL works. The feeds I'm using work with normal RSS browsers. Is there a format that needs to be adhered to?

These are the feeds:
  • feed://rss.gmane.org/gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco
  • feed://rss.groups.yahoo.com/group/CoCo3FPGA/rss
  • feed://web.me.com/allenhuffman/CoCoFest/Blog/rss.xml

Found the Feed Validator, and I think I'm onto it. Thank you for the help.
