Setting up RSS

    Has anyone had experience with setting up the RSS code? YPN is asking for three distinct .php files, yet I can't seem to find them on my server. Is there another way to set up the RSS code from yahoo?

    I think they only allow it right now for WordPress and Movable Type blogs.

    I have a Wordpress one...but the files the ask for are not part of my directory...I have the new version of wordpress and am wondering if they are asking for files that were in the older version...

    I have put in a request via email to them, but I have yet to hear back...that was 2 days ago..If I don't hear something by tomorrow I will call. And what good is it for support of Wordpress if you can't find the files they are requesting?

    I actually found them...they are wp-rss2.php, wp-rdr.php, and I can't remember the third right off hand...I had installed wordpress, then changed the directories...so I had just put them in the wrong folder.

    its wp-atom wp-rdf and wp-rss2, all .phps...I changed the directory because I had another page up originally...I set wordpress up in a seperate folder so that if I messed it up I would still have my original page up.

    Yeah, right out of the box. Didn't take me very long to put it into my feed (I am not using WP or MT). :D
    Have yet to receive a click on the RSS feeds though.
