I disabled Akismet, the only plugin that was installed. No change.

I then took another look at each of the .php files. I realized that the wp-config file did indeed have an extra line of blank space at the end of the file. I deleted the line and now the rss feed works.

HandySolo, Thanks so much for your assistance!

Ok, I think I understand that the trackback link is really not for “clicking and doing something”, but just so that some other 3rd party can access my trackback url. (3rd party right clicks on the trackback link, copies the url, uses it when posting on their blog which then sends me a trackback post) Is that correct?

If so, then I guess my only confusion is the comments rss link and the error I get when I click on the link. Thank you again.

I did check functions.php earlier. I don’t see any whitespace.

I switched to Default and I get the exact same error when clicking on the RSS 2.0 link.

The trackback link doesn’t give an error. Doesn’t do anything but re-display the page. Shouldn’t it ask me which blog I want to send the trackback to, or does it auto scan the post and send the trackback to any blogs mentioned in the post? Thanks again for your help.

I just edited some of the .php files and didn’t see any whitespace as you suggested. I checked wp-config, wp-feed, wp-trackback, wp-commentsrss2 and functions.

Hi, I just downloaded this template and for sure haven’t edited wp-config.php or any plugin php files. Actually, I’m not even sure how to get at them to edit them. Would that be a matter of ftp and notepad?

Here’s a link to the page where the comment rss & trackback links are:

If you could take a look and give any other suggestions I’d appreciate it! Thanks very much for your time.

Thanks for replying, HandySolo. Sorry, I should’ve provided more information first time around. When I’m looking at a post and click on the “comment rss” link, I get the following page displayed:

Internet Explorer cannot display this feed

This feed contains code errors.
Go back to the previous page.

More information

Invalid xml declaration.
Line: 2 Character: 3

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?><rss version=”2.0″

In answer to your question, I had previously changed my PermaLinks. I have them set to “Day and Name”. Still getting the error page.

I’d sure appreciate any add’l help. Thanks!
