   Hi. Ihave my podcasts all broken out by categories, which directs to a Feedburner Feed. For example,

   http://wyrd101.com/category/podcasts/beach-brony-bingo/feed

   Upon changing to the Modular theme, I have been made aware that my category feeds were not being updated with new posts. After making sure that this was not owing to the 3.3 upgrade to Wordpress, I reverted back to a prior theme and resynced everything, and it worked.

   Here are the errors I'm getting while validating RSS:

   "It looks like this is a web page, not a feed. I looked for a feed associated with this page, but couldn't find one. Please enter the address of your feed to validate."

   If I attempt to resync the feed while using the Modular Theme, this is the error Feedburner gives me.

   "The URL you entered does not appear to be a valid feed. We encountered the following problem: Error on line 144: The reference to entity "showNav" must end with the ';' delimiter."

   Can you help?

   Hello nineloc9,

   That doesn't look like a correct feed. What permalink structure are you using?

   Try this,

   http://wyrd101.com/feed/?category=beach-brony-bingo

   Or this,

   http://wyrd101.com/feed/?category_name=beach-brony-bingo

   Was using /%postname%/ as the permalink, and had no issues. However, I tried using both the formats you put above, and that worked a treat. So, maybe this was a PEBKAC situation after all.

   Thank you muchly, Elliott. :)

   Actually, hang on. It redirects back to the main feed, which is blog posts. Hmmm...

   The only post I see is, "WYRD 101 » Beach Brony Bingo". Which RSS reader are you using?
