My favicon uploaded fine but when I uploaded a .gif file in the proper size for my Feed Icon I get this error: Error: An unkown error occurred with the Favicon. It shows the .gif but it doesn’t give it’s size and it’s not uploading it in my feed. I’m also running 2.8.2.

I believe the problem is solved. In another forum it was suggested that I did not have the closing tag in place right here: Posted by:
 
Linda Hawkinson </p><hr style=’width:100%;’/>

So, I went into the Authors & Users section and the link placed in the Biographical information to link back to the about page was missing the closing tag. I added it for each author/user and everything seems to be fine.

Would the latest WP upgrade have blown that out?

How did that happen and more importantly… how do I fix it and prevent it from happening again? Keep in mind I am relatively new at this so please be specific with the steps of instructions.

Thanks for looking into this!

I think I have “temporarily” solved the problem… I’m using Google’s FeedBurner which also gives you the option of an email subscription. After you set up your account and create a feed, then you can get a link for the “subscribe by email” option that can be pasted in a text widget in your sidebar. You can see mine in my left sidebar here: Then I installed a WP plugin called “Feedburner Feed Stats” to monitor the activity from my WP Dashboard. The jury’s still out… we’ll see how it works.

You read my mind! I am looking for the very same thing. I’ve tried the “G-Lock Double Opt-in Manager” which was really great but it made the whole process majorly complicated… click this link, get a letter, then your subscriber is inundated with several screens of instructions, then a welcome letter, and the email post blast… and on and on. Too complicated for me and my subscribers.

Please someone answer JsonB123 and give us a solution.
