Hi, I'm having difficulty getting my RSS to work. [http://www.electriccampfire.com/forum/rss/]

I get this error message:

"This page contains the following errors:
error on line 9 at column 7: Extra content at the end of the document
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error."

Any idea how I can get it working?

I want to add the feed to a widget to show latest forum comments.

Thanks,

Mike

unknown at this point... not much to go on...  looks like your feeds are private?   I dont get any errors at the link you provide, but no feed either....  so likely hidden and feedkey required...  since guests cannot see your forums, more than likely private...

we have no known issues or reports of feed problems... but they generally come up on wp feeds when other wp plugins add things to them...

does the feed work if you click on the feed link when viewing the forum?  it would have the feedkey in it...  any other use of the feed would require the feedkey, but keep in mind, if you display the feed outside of the forum, with the feedkey, it will likely be visible to anyone who views the page where its shown...

so can you provide any further info?

so what's the problem?  That feed is fine...  It even validates correctly:  http://validator.w3.org/feed/c.....Fgroup%3D2

where are you seeing an error?  in the aforementioned widget?  did you include the feedkey?  either way, suggests its doing something to the feed...

Ah, I see, there is NO problem :)

I hadn't tried adding the feed to a widget.

When I clicked the RSS feed, I just saw:

"This page contains the following errors:

error on line 201 at column 7: Extra content at the end of the document"
 
And then figured it must be broken. But, it works fine!
 
Thanks,
