Check out the link in the footer.
http://test.72pines.com/ (WPMU 1.1.1, link error)
http://test2.edublogs.org/ (from James, WPMU 1.0, RSS link error)
Notice the link looks like:
http://http//***
or
feed://http//***
The default template is using the get_bloginfo() tag to get the options.
I have tested using WPMU 1.0, 1.1.1 and the latest r915 in SVN. All having this same issue.
Is this new or it is an old bug? I seems not able to find anyone mentioning this bug before.
Depends on whick link you're talking about.
Go to http://test2.edublogs.org/
Look at the footer links for Entries (RSS) and Comments (RSS). It showed up as feed://http//test2.edublogs.org/feed/
This also happens in a fresh install of WPMU 1.1.1 and the latest SVN nightly.
IE7 displays it as feed:http://test2.edublogs.org/feed/
as does Opera 9.10 & Mozilla & Safari in a Mac.
I think you want to be here:
http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/bugs
as this is a FireFox bug.
Anyway, a temporary fix is to replace the
<a href="http://<?php echo get_bloginfo('url') ?>">
in your theme footer.php files into this:
<a href="<?php echo get_bloginfo('url') ?>">
Basically, just strip out the "http://" prefix.
I can't see such a thing in any of my footer.php files
Don't you mean remove the "feed:" prefix:
replace the
<a href="feed:<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>">
with
<a href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>">
?

There shouldn't be an http:// in there. get_bloginfo is the same as bloginfo, only that it returns the value instead of prints it.
Why someone would use it as nothing more than an echo is beyond me.
<a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>">
is the cleaner option, unless you want to further parse the result.
You are right, lunabyte. The best way is to just use this:
<a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>">
The default WPMU home theme has the "feed:" prefix, which I think should be removed just as in the default theme.
I'm having trouble with <?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>. It isn't returning any feeds!
I find myself having to use /feed/"> instead. And it feels poo.
