  I just added the RSS Links widget to my blog, but when I click on them, I get the following message “This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below,” and the page appears as code and text instead of the feed.

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

  I’m using Firefox 20 and I have a built in feed reader. Chrome does not have built in feed reader and the feed reader extension that’s required. Here’s the link for that extension https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nlbjncdgjeocebhnmkbbbdekmmmcbfjd

  …I clicked on the RSS links (your feed) at the top of your sidebar, and they seem to be working fine. Was the problem with those feeds, or with the RSS widget that lets you put feeds from other sources into your sidebar?

  It was a problem with those feeds. I’m going to install the reader extension as Timethief suggested. I’ll let you guys know if that works.
