Hi there,

I would like to create some rss feeds based on categories, so that I can set-up automated email campaigns to email the right content to the right groups in my email list. For example, here are two of the category feeds I’d like to set-up:
https://www.melanietomlin.com/category/guest-blog-spot/feed/
https://www.melanietomlin.com/category/sales-promotions/feed/

If I enter one of those feed urls in my browser, this is basically all that’s returned:
<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?><rss version=”2.0″
xmlns:content=”http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/”
xmlns:wfw=”http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/”
xmlns:dc=”http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/”
xmlns:atom=”http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom”
xmlns:sy=”http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/”
xmlns:slash=”http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/”

I have posts assigned to those categories, but they don’t show up in the category feed, so clearly I’m missing something. Do I need to add some code into one of the .php files?

I have a child theme installed and am using the Icon stack.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

I’m 99% certain that I’ve got this resolved now. I deactivated all of my plugins — the feed worked. So I reactivated the plugins one at a time until I found the culprit.

Please close this topic.

Thanks,

Mel

Glad to hear that you were able to fix it.
