  1. Hi Joern, got a bit or a weird RSS situation. For some reason the site (www.iamstaggered.com) doesn't seem to be producing an RSS feed for the last few days - any idea what's going on with it?

    I can't think of anything that I've done that might have changed it but it's annoying as I can't auto-send things to Twitter without an RSS - Please help!

    Hope you're well.

    Cheers,

    Dr_Whom

  2. right, any feed link I try gets an Internal Server Error. The nexgen gallery feed is forbidden!, check the gallery settings.

    but comment feeds are working:

    How did you update wordpress? maybe try to load up at least wp-rss.php and wp-rss2.php again to your root folder. Even better to upload again all contents of wp-admin and wp-includes folders

    and change the feed settings of how many posts to display to 2 only, just to look if that works

  3. Thanks Joern, I know you'll be banging your head against the wall for this one but where would I find wp-rss.php and wp-rss2.php to upload them.

    And where should I put them in the root folder?

    And where are the feed settings accessed!

    Sorry for being so dense :)

  4. I just read somewhere that Internal Server Error points to memory problems..

    I also got a single post feed to display;
    http://www.iamstaggered.com/headline/a-guide-to-stag-do-t-shirts&feed=rss2&withoutcomments=1/feed

    In your dashboard go to settings - reading and set Syndication feeds show the most recent to one only, than try again. also set For each article in a feed, show to summary only and try. And do not let nexgen gallery do something with your feeds.

    I banged my head now strongly... forget that about the files first (did you ever access your site via ftp?)

  5. Ahhh memory problems eh?

    I've switched it to 1 post and it worked and I've upped it to 5 posts and it still works, so I might just leave it at that (previously it was on 25!)

    I've also unchecked the only box on Nextgen that seemed relevant:

    Activate Media RSS feed - A RSS feed will be added to you blog header. Useful for CoolIris/PicLens

    Lo and behold it's working again.

    Joern you are SUCH a star - do you have an Amazon Wishlist, a favourite charity or a tip jar of any kind?

  6. gooood, as 10 posts is the default I think you could try this.

    once in a while I will create a Paypal account and a button for it ;-) Does this work? never tried...

  7. Cool - when it's up could you drop me an email (iamstaggered AT gmail.com) with it on as I would love to leave you a tip for your excellent help!

    Would love to chat to you about possibility of hiring you for a few things too :)
