Hm. Tried it, but then the entire blog disappeared, and the dashboard was still gone. This is so strange! Thank you for helping me, I appreciate it a lot! ??

Any other ideas I might try? I’m starting to think I’ll just have to upload the entire blog from scratch.

I used my FTP-application (Filezilla) and deleted the theme I’m using (Oulipo), but then my entire blog disappeared. When I uploaded it again, the blog was back to normal (though I still cannot access the dashboard at all). Simply renaming the Oulipo-folder “twentyten” didn’t work, as there is already a file there with that name. Perhaps I misunderstood your suggestion? As you can probably tell, I’m still a bit new to wordpress.org. The strange thing is, my blog is still online and looks completely normal, it’s just “behind the scenes” there is nothing at all.

(Turns out I needed just the
border: none;
to make it work)

Both of you had good suggestions, but I’m afraid none of them worked. I tried this code just to see what would happen:

img {
	border: none;
	background: #FFFFFF;
}

and it actually worked! Guess I lucked out. But thanks anyway, I appreciate you trying to help ??

I reset the permalinks, didn’t make any difference.
This is what is says in my .htaccess file:

# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>

# BEGIN WordPress

# END WordPress

I’m ashamed to admit I don’t understand any of it, but maybe you (or someone else) does?

When I tried to deactivate all Plugins (except for the Elastic Theme Editor

• https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/elastic-theme-editor/

everything looked normal, but in the rss-feed everything looked as though the plugins were still there. Then I tried deactivating the Elastic Theme Editor plugin (

• https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/elastic-theme-editor/

), and suddenly everything disappeared. If I type in the url to my blog, or to the wordpress dashboard, all I get is a completely white, blank page. I deleted the plugin using my file manager (Filezilla), and it didn’t change anything. Everything is still white, and I can’t do anything about it.

I suppose I’ll just have to delete all my files, install WordPress again and start from scratch, then, and avoid that Elastic Editor like the devil. Maybe if I choose a different theme I won’t have problems with my RSS, at least.

Thank you for your help anyway, I appreciate it a lot!

Added a new post, but it doesn’t look like it helped much.

I might completely lost, but I thought about how the plugin said there was a mistake with my XML, and this site

• https://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Flostinaspotlessmind.com%2F%3Ffeed%3Drss2

also seems to say there’s something wrong with my code. At the bottom of the Codex about feeds

• https://codex.www.ads-software.com/WordPress_Feeds

there is a link to this site:

• https://www.w3it.org/blog/wordpress-feed-error-output-solution-how-to/

I might be on to something, I might be very wrong, but I thought it was worth checking anyway. What do you think?

I used the plugin because someone had said it might be the answer to someone with a similar problem to mine (the plugin description says: “simple and flexible Atom/RSS syndication for WordPress”), but I might have just misunderstood. I’ve deactivated the plugin now, but I can’t see any change.

I tried to enter https://lostinaspotlessmind.com/?feed=rss2 into Feedburner, just to see if it would work, but it gets stuck on the page where I have to choose betweeen https://lostinaspotlessmind.com/?feed=rss2 and https://lostinaspotlessmind.com/?feed=comments-rss2.

I really appreciate your help, by the way. Beeing a www.ads-software.com newbie is a bit overwhelming sometimes!

I know, it’s very odd. Do you think it might have something to do with the message I get in the FeedWordPress-plugin? That there’s something in my code/XML that’s ruining it somehow=

(FeedWordPress encountered the following error when trying to retrieve this feed:

XML error: Mismatched tag at line 47, column 61

If you think this is a temporary problem, you can still force FeedWordPress to add the subscription. FeedWordPress will not be able to find any syndicated posts until this problem is resolved.)

Ah, it seems I rushed it a bit. The RSS-symbol shows up in my browser (where I type in url’s), but nothing much happens if I press it. The RSS is there, but still not quite… there. Do you know why this might be? I read here

• https://codex.www.ads-software.com/WordPress_Feeds

that my blog is supposed to have this “<?php bloginfo(‘rdf_url’); ?>” in one of its php-files, but I can’t seem to find it in any of them. Do you think I could simply add this to, say, footer.php, and this might solve it?

You, Sir, are officially my hero. Thank you!
