I am having the same problem . . . cannot get RSS feeds to work with forums. I receive an Error message when clicking the RSS icon. I have enabled all of the feed requirements in the administrative end and even disabled global search, but still receive ERROR message. I would really like the feeds to work, especially as I understand when attaching audio files, they are also feed enabled. Any other ideas/comments?

Hi Per,

Well, I kept trying out different things and figured it out. I disabled the Global search, as you suggested, but still couldn't get the forum feeds to work.

Then, I manually ran a cron (for those who are reading this who don't know what I'm talking about, to run a cron manually in Moodle, just add /admin/cron.php to your Moodle front page and all indexes are updated.)

After I ran cron, I still received the error message. Finally, I figured out that my browser was probably pulling data from the cache (I use Firefox), so cleared my cache (again, for neophytes, to do this just select Tools from your Firefox menu, then Clear Private Data, and make sure cache is selected. Then click button, Clear Private Data Now.)

After I did this, the RSS feeds for the forums worked perfectly. Hope this helps someone else in the same predicament. Remember to CLEAR YOUR CACHE when making changes.

Thanks!
