    Hello,
    When I click on my RSS icon I get:

    XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity
    Location: https://whereisbuddylee.com/feed/
    Line Number 1, Column 2: <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
    -^
    Does anyone know why this is happening?
    Thanks, Jeff

    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 Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    Thanks for your response!

    I tried deactivating/activating all plugins and
    resetting the plugins folder.
    The RSS Feed icon button now works,
    But the RSS comment button still shows error.
    Will you please check both buttons?

    Any more suggestions?

    Theme Diva,
    You are right, the RSS Comments button works on another computer other than mine(I just tried).
    But when I click on the button(on my computer), I still get:

    XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity
    Location: https://whereisbuddylee.com/comments/feed/
    Line Number 1, Column 2: <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?><rss version=”2.0″
    -^

    How do you think this is happening?
    Thanks, Jeff

    Remember to press CTRL and F5 simultaneously when viewing an updated page/site. Or try emptying your browser cache. This should ensure that your web browser fetches a fresh copy of the page rather than serving up an out-dated copy from your own cache.

    CTRL + F5 did it!

    Many Thanks!
    Jeff
