How to Fix Missing RSS/Atom Feed on New WordPress Site

Just started out your WordPress site and the RSS feed is not working?

Here’s a solution to a simple problem.

Missing RSS Feed on WordPress

First thing is to try these URLs to access your Atom feed;

https://www.wordpress.com/feed/atom/
https://www.wordpress.com/?feed=atom

Of course you need to replace wordpress.com with the domain of your site.

But having looked up all the common RSS feed URLs for WordPress, are none of them validating on FEED Validator? Can’t get your FeedBurner account live?

Try this: create your first post

That’s about it. Basically if you don’t have any posts, there is no RSS Feed either. If this didn’t fix it for you however, you have a bigger problem in your hands.

Good luck 🙂
