  Hi, my feed seems to be down for http://ericephoto.wordpress.com but not for /comments/feed/. How can I make my feed work for my posts? I get an error message saying invalid text “line 0 char 0.” I have no idea what this means.
  Thanks.

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

  clicking on the link above gives me this error:
  Internet Explorer cannot display this feed

  This feed contains code errors.
  Go back to the previous page.

  More information

  An invalid character was found in text content.
  Line: 0 Character: 0

  I’m still unable to view it but can see http://ericephoto.wordpress.com/comments/feed/ just fine. Am I doing something wrong or is there an error with the feed?
  Thanks. EE

  Your blog passes the W3C validation test 100%, but your feed fails validation stating that the UTF-8 codec cannot decode some bytes in your feed.

  Go to settings > reading and make sure that under “Encoding for pages and feeds” it has UTF-8 and not something else.
