    I am trying to add RSS feed subscription to the blog and it is not working properly. When I add the widget, it displays but if you click it, it says file can’t be dowloaded on both windows and mac.

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

    Hi there, at the moment I don’t see any RSS widget on your above site.

    All WordPressdotcom sites generate several different RSS feeds (entire blog, author, categories, comments, tags). RSS feeds are usually consumed via an application like Feedly, RSSOwl, the WordPressdotcom Reader, the RSS Widget one can add to a site sidebar and the like.

    What happens after someone clicks on one of the links in the RSS Links Widget (to subscribe to new posts or new comments), greatly depends on their own browser settings.

    Can you put the widget back so we can check it out?

    Hi again, I see you’ve re-added the RSS subscription widget.

    Here’s what I see when clicking on it in Win10Pro with both Firefox 48 and Chrome 52 (temp screenshots). Firefox opens a special page which allows you to add and subscribe via the feed reader of one’s choice. Chrome just gives you the raw feed.

    You know, I just had a somewhat belated thought. Are you really wanting to have a feed for your audio podcast and not for your site? If so, have a look here and see if it doesn’t answer your needs: https://en.support.wordpress.com/audio/podcasting/
