Wordpress feed

what is WP's feed URL? is it ".../feed/"? if ti is, it won't validate. how do i fix the problem?

 

My wordpress feed is that ... http://www.slapyo.com/feed/

Do you have a link to your feed so we can look at it.

 

Double post.

 

i ran through the WP documentation. the one that works for me is .../wp-rss2.php

how do i change the text "RSS" on the page to a graphic image? the blog's the one under my username (got it working finally).

 

Try the subscribe-me plugin. To see it in action, click on my blog link above and scroll down - lower sidebar at right, below the AdSense tower.

 

sounds great, thanks minstrel. have to wait till i get home to do it. i don't understand why my webhost cannot quickly solve their file manager problem..

i've so much to learn about WP...should i get rid of the META section on the page? looks kinda cluttered.

 

I usually pull that section and just have a link or two to the feeds in the footer

 

Look for something like this in your sidebar.php file:

 <li id="meta"><h4><?php _e('Meta:'); ?></h4>
 	<ul>
		<?php wp_register(); ?>
		<li><?php wp_loginout(); ?></li>
<!--		<li><a href="feed:<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" title="<?php _e('Syndicate this site using RSS'); ?>"><?php _e('<abbr title="Really Simple Syndication">RSS</abbr>'); ?></a></li> -->
<!-- 		<li><a href="feed:<?php bloginfo('comments_rss2_url'); ?>" title="<?php _e('The latest comments to all posts in RSS'); ?>"><?php _e('Comments <abbr title="Really Simple Syndication">RSS</abbr>'); ?></a></li> -->
<!--		<li><a href="http://validator.w3.org/check/referer" title="<?php _e('This page validates as XHTML 1.0 Transitional'); ?>"><?php _e('Valid <abbr title="eXtensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</abbr>'); ?></a></li> -->
<!--		<li><a href="http://gmpg.org/xfn/"><abbr title="XHTML Friends Network">XFN</abbr></a></li> -->
<!--		<li><a href="http://wordpress.org/" title="<?php _e('Powered by WordPress, state-of-the-art semantic personal publishing platform.'); ?>"><abbr title="WordPress">WP</abbr></a></li> -->
		<?php wp_meta(); ?>
	</ul>
 </li>

Code (markup):

and then just comment out the parts you don't want (as I did above using <!-- and --> around the unwanted links) or comment out the entire section.

I just left the "Admin" and "Logout/Login links" because they're handy to have. I had actually meant to do this before so thanks for the reminder!

 

i just deleted the ones that i don't want. i suppose commenting out is so that if i ever need it next time i can just remove the comment tags, right?

so i i wanted to add another category of list called "items for sale" i'd just add this code:?

<li id="item"><h5><?php _e('Items For Sale:'); ?></h5>

Code (markup):

 

That looks like it should probably work - give it a shot.
