Hello everyone!

So, some of you might have seen my last question.
Well, this one is a little different. I have created a Ghost droplet, and I have my blog almost set up.

I’m facing some problems with the Subscribe button, on the upper right. How can I make the visitors subscribe to my RSS feed? When you hover over the button it shows
“wholt.me/rss/”, and of course it brings me no where.
How can I link this to make it work?

This is my blog: www.wholt.me, not to advertise or anything but to get some help :), I guess you gotta see it first.

I really appreciate this kind community!

So it looks like your blog is located at http://wholt.me/ but the RSS link points to http://www.wholt.me/rss/ If I vist http://wholt.me/rss/ I am successfully presented with your RSS feed.

Are you using the one-click Ghost app? If so, you probably want to take a look at:

Either way, it looks like you need to edit your Ghost configuration to use the correct domain name. This is usually in the file /var/www/ghost/config.js Find this line and update it to the correct value:

production {
    url: 'http://www.wholt.me',

and restart Ghost. If you are using the one-click app, this can be done with:

sudo service ghost restart

    That is very odd.

    The url was already ’http://www.wholt.me’
    Also it works perfectly if I delete the ‘www’

    Are there any ways to make it work with the 'www’?

    Thanks for taking your time!

    The RSS feed is loading fine for me. Have you managed to fix it?
