• Hi all, I’ve checked several threads regarding broken RSS feeds, but as an amateur, I’m still having trouble fixing mine.

    On a side note. It used to work. Then all of sudden, it didn’t.

    Have you tried:
    -deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
    -switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    Yes, I deactivated all of the plug-ins, and there was no change to the feed. I would really like to to avoid having to change my theme at this point, because we lose a lot of functionality of the entire site, so I’m putting that down as my last resort.

    Takes 5 minutes to change, check rss and change back.

    Your feed does not validate because of an error in a post with “ball toes”

    You also have some validation problems, https://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fcrossfitbalance.com%2Fgeorgetown%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&ss=1&group=0&verbose=1&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.3+http%3A%2F%2Fvalidator.w3.org%2Fservices

    But if you go to your feed in a browser like Chrome it reads fine.

    Where did you get the theme?

    OK. I tried that too. No help, feed still doesn’t work.

    I’ve checked and double checked that post, which you can see here. And I can’t find any fixable problems.

    You can unpublish the post and check. Sometimes certain words or combinations cause problems. You may have to change the title or something and then update.

    Your feed does work in FF and in Chrome. Not in IE.

    I checked the other locations and their feed works. I did notice none of you have a meta entry for feed which means the feed isn’t seen until you key in
    https://crossfitbalance.com/georgetown/feed That is not normal.

    You all use the same theme so it is not likely a theme problem but with themes not downloaded from here and using feed burner it is hard for us to debug.

    You and the other sites are using outdated versions of WordPress which should be upgraded immediately.

    If you use a commercial theme or plugin and need support, please go to their official support channel. In order to be good stewards of the WordPress community, and encourage innovation and progress, we feel it’s important to direct people to those official locations. Doing this will provide the developer with the income they need to make WordPress awesome.

    Forum volunteers are also not given access to commercial products, so they would not know why your commercial theme or plugin is not working properly. This is one other reason why volunteers forward you to the commercial product’s vendors. The vendors are responsible for supporting their commercial product.
