    I’m getting this error when clicking my RSS link. The full message reads:

    XML Parsing Error: prefix not bound to a namespace
    Location: http://www.positionone.us/site/rss_2/web/
    Line Number 1, Column 1:
    <ee:last_update>1296799785</ee:last_update>
    ^

    Checking the RSS template I have, the declared namespaces are given as:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="{encoding}"?>
    <rss version="2.0"
        xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"
        xmlns:sy="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/"
        xmlns:admin="http://webns.net/mvcb/"
        xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
        xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/">

    ...but <ee:last_update> is not in there.

    I don’t have much experience with RSS. Any idea why this could have arisen?
    What should I do to correct?

    I’m running EE1.6.8 Build: 20090723

    Thanks in advance.

    Make sure the EE template type is set to RSS.
