breaks RSS feed?

edited August 2012 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8

When enabled, this plugin broke my RSS feed (as found in Categories section); it yields the following error: XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity Location: http://www.notmyforum.com/forum/index.php?p=/categories/category-name/feed.rss Line Number 2, Column 1:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> ^

The master.rss file had no such space, and I believe the space must have been generated by this add-on as, when disabled, the error disappears. Thought I should let you know.

    Thanks for the feedback
    I've got not idea how to fix it, if it is indeed a problem.

    Try the ignore plugin and see if that works for you.

    I'm curious if you enable just this plugin again, does the error occur.

    A problem may be that you end with ?> in default.php

    good idea never to end you php file with a close tag (except rare exceptions), it will prevent the chance of extra white space creeping in.

    grep is your friend.

    thx @x00. I uploaded the plugin with the change - @Bud1

    You learn something new everyday. I thought I was closing things properly only to find out the exact opposite is true.
