RSS feed problem WordPress 4.7

In what way is yoursite.com/feed/ not working?

Normally when I type example.com/feed/ Firefox opens Live Bookmarks automatically, now it wants to download a file says, you have chosen to open which is application/rss+xml…

I guess I did something wrong in the functions.php

Please provide a link to a page on your site where we can see this. Thanks.

Did you do anything feed related in your child theme?

Can I not share the website? This is my child theme’s functions.php

I tried to show 10 posts a page for one category by this code:

<?php

function my_theme_enqueue_styles() {

    $parent_style = 'parent-style'; // This is 'twentyfifteen-style' for the Twenty Fifteen theme.

    wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );

    wp_enqueue_style( 'child-style',

        get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css',

        array( $parent_style ),

        wp_get_theme()->get('Version')

    );

}

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_theme_enqueue_styles' );

?>

<?php // Opening PHP tag - nothing should be before this, not even whitespace

add_action('pre_get_posts', 'diff_post_count_per_cat');

function diff_post_count_per_cat() {

    if (is_admin()) return;

    $cat = get_query_var('category_name');

    switch ($cat) {

        case 'news':

            set_query_var('posts_per_page', 10);

            break;

 

    }

}

?>

Please provide a link to your site.

Sorry, I do not want to share it here. Thanks.

I checked with Google Chrome, on a newly installed wordpress feed starts like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><rss version="2.0"
	xmlns:content="https://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/"
	xmlns:wfw="https://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/"...

My site’s feed:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><rss version="2.0"
	xmlns:content="https://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/"
	xmlns:wfw="https://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/"...

Extra empty/blank 2 lines, other that everything same.

I guess that’s the issue?

1. remove the final ?> from your functions.php file.

2. your switch statement is incorrect. It does not have a default case.

3. Get rid of the ?> followed by the next line that starts with <?php

4. for the time being, comment out the add_action that changes the post count. If that fixes it, then fix that function so it’s good PHP.

Thanks a lot. I found these on the internet, I don’t know anything about these codes or PHP but I will try.

Just an update, I deleted PHP closing tags ?> and changed the code for showing 10 posts for a single category. Now RSS works. Thanks.

This is how my functions.php looks now, it might help someone, and if still something wrong please tell me.

<?php
function my_theme_enqueue_styles() {

    $parent_style = 'parent-style'; // This is 'twentyfifteen-style' for the Twenty Fifteen theme.

    wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
    wp_enqueue_style( 'child-style',
        get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css',
        array( $parent_style ),
        wp_get_theme()->get('Version')
    );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_theme_enqueue_styles' );

add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'posts_in_category');

function posts_in_category($query){
    if ($query->is_category) {
        if (is_category('news')) {
            $query->set('posts_per_archive_page', 10);
        }
    
    }

}

I changed it to not resolved, I guess when I select resolved and I type a reply it won’t go up.
