*Appears* to have worked for me under 2.6. See more zero results than I’d expect, but maybe close enough.

Hm, maybe it’s system-wide? I installed on WP 2.5.1 a few days ago too and haven’t seen a single visitor reported…

Thank you for explaining it to me. It sounds like it’s purely for looks, right. So I should be fine just giving them this address: https://www.domain.com/wordpress/wp-custom-feed.php ?

The first example was given to me by WordPress I believe. But even when I tried https://www.domain.com/?feed=custom-feed nothing comes up. I can get to it via https://www.domain.com/wordpress/wp-custom-feed.php but read in a previous thread that is not the ideal method. I feel like I’m missing something, that I need to tell some other file where to find my new feed to publish it right.

OK, here’s my thought – correct me if I’m wrong. ??

I copy wp-rss2.php as wp-custom-rss.php. Now how do I craft an URL or make WP do it for me? For example, the address I give out for feeds is https://www.domain.com/feed. How would I end up with something like https://www.domain.com/custom-feed?

Thanks!

Update 2: After not working in Firefox and Safari, I hopped onto Windows and loaded up WordPress in IE7. The visual editor was there. I returned to the Mac (and FF) and it was still missing, so I cleared the cache and there it was. All told, it was down about 24 hours. Not sure what triggered it, or what made it return. It’s a little disconcerting, as I’ve never see this sort of random behavior in 18+ months on WP.

Update: I’ve tried repairing the database tables and also deactivating plugins with no luck. I logged into an existing user account (non-admin) and he doesn’t have access to the visual editor either.

I saw another thread on a similar topic where it was suggested to change permissions on the wp-includes directory. If I can figure out how to do that, I’ll give it a shot.

For whatever it’s worth, I’m hosted on Media Temple and have a few sporadic mySQL issues over the last few months.

My visual editor vanished yesterday. I’ve tried toggling both the global and user-specific settings, with no luck in restoring it. I’m running 2.0.7 and haven’t made any recent changes to version, plugins, themes, etc. It just went away. ??
