A few issues with vailla cms please help : )

Hi, i am having a few issues with my vanilla forum, users can nto edit there posts unless they click on discussions and edit from there, i updated to the newest stable release and replaced with the js file i downloaded from>
This post: http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/215022/#Comment_215022

Also rss seems to be a issue with twitterfeed i added eg: https://www.lowpricehosts.com/categories/tutorials/feed.rss

Your feed might be empty or missing publish dates or GUIDs. A feed needs to contain publish dates or GUIDs in order to work with twitterfeed, see help

Thank you for your time and information if any, please give me some tips too i am new to vanilla cms and i will be using it for a long time to come!

    if you look at the source of the forum you are outputting white space at the top. often this becuase people wrongly include ?> at the end of their code then if there is any white space after this will be outputed. In xml nothing can come before <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

    grep is your friend.

    You are using Vanilla 2.1.3 (you should mention that yourself ;) ) and thus you do not need to apply any js fix. Read the discussion you've linked to: http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/215147/#Comment_215147

    If something probably JavaScript related error occur, you should start the developer tools of your browser and look for any js errors in the console. Report them here if you are not able to solve them by yourself (seeing the error message often helps resolving problems without needing the help of others)

  • I have been trying to solve the issue as you suggested also disabled plugins enabled 1 by 1 with no joy, i only added the js update linked to this post because posts could not be edited at all, i think there needs to be another update maybe?

    Does that issue also applies if you are using the standard theme?

    Concerning your XML issue, you might be interested in that discussion http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/215623/#Comment_215623

  • you are running two editors disable one.

    grep is your friend.

    you said you added some twitter code, either that or some other addon is outputting white space. You need to remove the white space.

    grep is your friend.

  • I see thanks will see if i can fix it :)

  • copy view-source:www.lowpricehosts.com in your browser address bar. You can see white space at the top. This is not right, you need to find out what is output the white space.

    grep is your friend.

  • oh i see thanks, i will try work it out.

  • got a error saying: Body is required. when trying to do a test post :(

  • You have once again enabled two editors. Why are you doing that? it make no sense, there aren't even in the same category of editor.

    One editor at a time.

    grep is your friend.

  • Thanks one of the editors enabled by it's self for some strange reason or did not disable when i clicked disable fixed now :) only issue is rss now, soryr for being a noob to vanilla i am still learning this new cms.
