    I am receiving the following error when I try to use the RSS feed for our site’s main Activity feed. I would like to post the 5 most recent activities in the RSS Widget in the Sidebar.

    I am running the BuddyPress Private Community plug-in and I think it may be creating the problem. I just deactivated it and the feed seems to work just fine. Any suggestions?

    Ooops, there was a small bug in the BP RSS feeds blocker in the plugin. I’ve updated it to 0.5 now, this will get rid of this Error.

    Also, I’ve added a new feature for you. Previously, the RSS feeds were always blocked or never blocked. But now I’ve added an extra variable, $BLOCK_RSS_FEEDS_WHEN_LOGGED_IN, that you can change in the config file. If you set this to FALSE, then logged in users will be able to access the RSS feeds and your widget will work correctly. If you don’t change this setting, then your widget will just show the feeds are disabled message.

    Setting $BLOCK_RSS_FEEDS_WHEN_LOGGED_IN to FALSE could be a security issue.
