RSS Links Widgit not available?
-
I have constructed a website blog using WordPress 3.2.1 at: http://changemarketer.com/articles/
This site is built on a modified version of the Coraline 1.0.2 theme. I want to add RSS feed buttons for the posts and comments, which should be easy, but when I go to Appearance->Widgets, there is a RSS widget for displaying external feeds, but there is no sign of the RSS Links Widget as described here.
I’m relatively new to WordPress, and I have been searching through the PHP files looking for clues. In the functions.php file, I see an entry for:
// Add default posts and comments RSS feed links to head
add_theme_support( 'automatic-feed-links' );And I do see that some browsers will display an RSS feed button in the URL bar — but not all. I would still like to add these buttons to my blog page sidebar. So the questions are:
1: Why is the RSS Links widget not available on my configuration?
2: How can I add the widget, or else add the appropriate HTML code code for these buttons.Thanks for any pointers you can offer.

Following up on my own post, it looks like the following code will add a button and feed link. Does this look correct?
Do I just change “feed” to “comments” to get the appropriate link to reader comments?
I would still like to understand the missing widgets issue if there is an answer to that.
Thanks.

Hello there,
I’m sorry to tell you this but your are posting to the wrong support forum and we cannot help you here at all with that site. This support forum is only for free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we do not run on the same software that your site runs on. You need to post to http://wordpress.ORG/support/

Thanks for the clarification. Sorry to bother everyone here. I’ll move on over to .org! :-)
