  The theme I’m using has an RSS link by default, but when I click on it, it says:

  “This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.”

  How can I fix this so that readers can subscribe to my site feed? It directs to what should be my site feed (becauseiamusemyself.wordpress.com/feed), but doesn’t have any subscription options and I don’t see any options to edit this link from the Dashboard. I also don’t see a way to delete the link from the menu.

  Could you let us know some information about your environment?

  – Operating system and its version
  – Browser type and its version

  I did try with IE 7.0 and it worked fine, but I was hoping the link would be a one-click option to add to any reader (like Google Reader). Is there a widget for that? Sorry to throw in another question!

  This unfortunately just happens to be the way that Chrome displays RSS feeds. IE7 (and other browsers) sometimes have special bits baked in that will display the feed nicely. If you paste your RSS feed link into Google Reader, it should work without issue. One-click functionality will be controlled by browsers and browser plugins and not, unfortunately, by us. Hope that clears things up!

  Very helpful, although not the answer I was hoping for :-) Thanks!
