I’m still having an issue with getting one of my RSS feeds to work. 

I have a weblog called events set up to display in my ‘site’ home page (index).  So my link to the rss page is here: http://goldbeachyouthgroup.com/index.php/site/rss_2.0/

Then in the rss template, I’m sure I still not getting the paths right. 

This is in the top of the page:

{assign_variable:master_weblog_name="events"}
{exp:rss:feed weblog="{master_weblog_name}"}

And here are the permalinks:

<link>{exp:xml_encode}{title_permalink=site/events}{/exp:xml_encode}</link>
      <guid>{title_permalink=site/events}#When:{gmt_entry_date format="%H:%i:&#xsZ;"}</guid>

Thanks, Pat smile

Do you have a weblog with the short name “site”?  In your first post you have the {master_weblog_name} variable assigned to “events”.  Sounds like that might be the problem?

Ok, changed it to this and still wrong.

{assign_variable:master_weblog_name="events"}
{exp:rss:feed weblog="{master_weblog_name}"}

If you are sure that “events” is the proper weblog short name, and you have entries in that weblog, try clearing your caches.

I will do that after I get back from an appointment.  But I just wanted to make sure you knew that the ‘events’ weblog is embedded in the index ‘site’ weblog.

Hm, weblogs are not embedded inside of other weblogs.  Methinks you are still confusing templates and weblogs, which are two different animals.

Ok, I worded that wrong smile 

I cleared the caches and it still doesn’t work.  Here is my page:

That error only occurs for a few specific reasons.  Can you email me login information for your control panel?  (Address and Super Admin info)  There’s likely something very simple being overlooked.

All of the entries in that weblog are dated in the future, so you need to use the show_future_entries parameter (for both the RSS Feed tag and the Weblog Entries tag).

Thank you so much Derek!  I fixed the Atom feed by your instructions too.

Yep, that error is triggered only when:

a) no weblog parameter is given
b) a weblog parameter was used but is not a valid weblog
c) no results are available from the query to generate the RSS/Atom information for the feed (i.e. weblog name, url, last updated, etc.)

(c) was the trigger in your case, as there were no entries matching default criteria (dated in the past, open status, etc.)
