  Facebook feed error has been up for weeks on the widget, could you help please – nothing seems to be wrong with the code. Is there a problem with the widget?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Could you please share the url of your facebook feed? I will try to put it in a widget on my test blog and see if the feed shows up.

  I found the reasons why the RSS widget failed:

  The above feed url although is http, redirects to https which is not supported by WordPress.com RSS Widget.
  The above feed url failed the validation when tested with the validation tool available at the end of the above RSS Widget support page.

  I suggest you use Facebook Like Box widget rather than RSS widget you are currently using. You can see Facebook widget in action in the left hand side bar on my test blog here.

  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Darebin-Music-Feast/103459693035119 is your facebook page url.
