Thank you skippy, I would like to say this worked but instead it is broken worse – no doubt my fault. I opened the footer.php file in notepad and there were two lines with feed: in them.
The first line had “>Entries
After removing the feed: it now says
Entries
I saved it as footer.php and reuploaded and now when one clicks the entries (RSS) link one gets an exciting page of code. What did I do wrong?
