My RSS feed is fried...

Why does my Wordpress RSS feed only show one post?

I have a Wordpress blog that only shows 1 post in the RSS feed, despite that fact that I have specified it to show 12 posts in the Options -> Reading part of the control panel.

The feed validates, albeit with 2 warnings, but I simply can't get it to show more than one post. The "live bookmark" feature in FF also shows just one post. Curiously, the comments feed is working fine.

Best answer: The feed only has the one post in it, so it's something on the generating (WordPress) side, as opposed to a funky character being introduced breaking the Good Syntax.

Try changing it to be 9 posts, and see if that makes a difference? If you don't get better help here, I'd head over to the Wordpress forums and see what they have to say about it.

Response by poster: Thanks for the reply jeversol. I did what you suggested and asked on the WP forums and it turns out one of my plugins was messing up the feed.
