What technology platform is your site running on Denver?

What do you mean "nothing can ever read this feed"? What have you tried reading it in?
Have you tried subscribing to it yourself via an application or by email?
Or have you tried to burn it with a something like FeedBurner or some other RSS reader or app or addon or something?

Usually for WordPress the RSS for a category is just the domain / cat and /feed or you can use /rss

Example
Not
Code:
https://www.denverdonate.com/component/obrss/aa-meetings
But
Code:
https://www.denverdonate.com/category/aa-meetings/rss
Or
Code:
https://www.denverdonate.com/category/aa-meetings/feed
Such as the rss feed for the collections category on my site.
Code:
[B]https://ebooklistr.com/category/collections/feed/[/B]
However your site isn't running WordPress so not sure what to suggest to you.

Have you tried asking support from the sites platform dev or your host?

Also this post should have been posted in the Web Development Programming & Coding forum.

Will have it moved for you.

Thanks for moving the post. For me the grandmaster authority is Feedburner, and it won't read either. I will try a simple Joomla CMS rss like you have done for Wordpress, I just don't know why the others using obRSS would work and not this one

Well, you should be able to burn the feed with Feedburner for each feed individually that's for sure. And then you would be able to just link to that feed directly.

Also I know it might be obvious and sound like I'm being condescending but I say it only to make sure and cover all avenues but have you consulted the documentation for the obRSS app you're using or looked/asked on their support forums or support page if any?

Chances are this has happened before for someone else so might be able to find out why and fix it rather than making a switch to CMS based RSS.

Good luck!
