Unable to add the feed of my blog to feed burner
-
Hi,
I have been trying since weeks to add the feed of my blog ‘http://veggieparadise.wordpress.com’ in the feedburner,it gives me error like this..
“We could not find a valid feed at that address. Here are some possible reasons this might have happened:
Is the feed valid? Confirm its validity now.
The feed your site already creates needs to be “valid enough” to work with FeedBurner. This post from the FeedBurner Help Center explains why technical validity matters.
Are you using the URL of the web page or the URL of the feed?
FeedBurner is usually able to “auto-discover” your feed from a web page, but in this case we didn’t find any related feeds. You may want to enter the URL of the feed directly.
Is the URL is misspelled or a copy+paste action didn’t work?
If that’s the case, please try again.”When i click on “confirm its validity now”,it takes me to another page which shows the error as….
“lastBuildDate must be an RFC-822 date-time:”
I am unable to figure out what this is. Please helpThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

This is your feed address: http://swathipradeep.wordpress.com/feed . Is that the address you were giving feedburner?
-
nope!
i am trying to add my other blog… http://veggieparadise.wordpress.com
I am unable to do so. -
Go to settings > privacy. You probably have the blog set as the second selection (block search engines). It has to be set as the top selection for the feed to be available.

Actually the problem is your feed does not validate; there are errors on your blog keeping the feed from validating.
Go to settings > writing and select “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” and then click save changes.
Next open each post on your main page, make one minor change such as adding a space and then deleting it and then click “update post.” Keep doing that until your feed validates at this site: http://validator.w3.org/feed/ .
The feed URL for that site is of course http://veggieparadise.wordpress.com/feed/ .

Hi,
Thanks, i did EVERYTHING you mentioned above,but the problem still persists..
When i add my feed url to http://validator.w3.org/feed, i still experience the same error viz..
“lastBuildDate must be an RFC-822 date-time: “
Now can you let me know what that line means? -
Ahh, I figured it out. RSS is only for posts. You have no posts, only pages. There is nothing to feed out.
-
Yes,you are right!
I have added a post now in my veggie paradise blog and i have successfully added that feed to the feedburner!
Everything is fine now
Thanks a lot for your help :)
It was indeed helpful.. -
