  When I click on the RSS feed button in the menu, I get the following:

  “This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.” followed by a bunch of code. I also tried hitting the “subscribe via RSS” button on another person’s blog that uses the Standard theme, and got the same thing.

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

  This must be resolved as I am using Firefox 19 and I get a valid feed http://theartofdoingwhatyouwant.com/feed/

  timethief, thanks…If I enter my blog url into my reader (vienna), it works, but if I click the RSS icon on my blog, it doesn’t (I use Chrome). Thoughts?

  That is how it is supposed to work. There is nothing wrong as that is just how Chrome shows XML files in the browser.

  In the future, please ask your questions on the Standard Premium Themes forum rather than out here in the wide open WordPress.com forums. That way we’ll see it sooner and be able to respond quicker. Thanks!
