Probably, the problem is due to relative links in rss feed. Try to solve it by replacing codes from How to make relative links on the pages post to (in the case of standard component for rss export)

if($GLOBALS['option']=='com_rss')
    return $mosConfig_live_site . '/' . $string . $fragment;
else
    return '/' . $string . $fragment;

and

if($GLOBALS['option']=='com_rss')
    $string = $mosConfig_live_site . '/' . $string;
else
    $string = '/' . $string;

respectively.

Hi,

I have to give one word of warning though - implementing this and/or the relative links hack kills off the ability of presenting your site’s RSS feeds properly (as it removes the www.domain.com from the generated links).
I found out this issue by accident, when my FeedBurner feeds stopped working all of a sudden, and removing the hacks solved my problem again.

Thought I’d let you folks know.

Regards,
Anthony
