Since updating the Bird Feeder pepper, my feeds don't exist.

I updated the pepper last week, and just noticed that since then I haven’t received any hits from my feeds.

So I went to my site, jcontonio.com, hit the RSS button in Firefox and bam. Nothing happens.

Everything worked before this update. What could this have done?

I would try reuploading all the files for BirdFeeder. Perhaps one of the files didn’t upload correctly. Also, I notice you run a WordPress site. Install any plugins recently which may conflict with your feed?

Nope. The only thing I have installed is the new bird feeder plugin. Kinda wish I hadnt now.

The only WP plugin I use is one to include my flickr photos.

Are we talking about the Bird Feeder Pepper for Mint or the Bird Feeder plugin for Wordpress (the one that integrates with the Bird Feeder)? Did you change the location of your Feeder or the Pepper itself?

I am talking about the Bird Feeder Pepper. I have now since uninstalled it and still nothing is showing up. I’ve also replaced the two rss php files that come along with Wordpress. So now it is really odd to me. A week ago it all worked, after the update nothing works…even when I remove it. So obviously it isnt Mint, but I haven’t updated anything else…so I’m at a loss =)

I never tried the Bird Feeder plugin.

It’s something with a rewrite rule on /feed/. The following URLs work which all drawl their data from the same place in WordPress:

Look in your .htaccess to see if there is any weird rewrite rules on /feed/.
