I am changing my autodiscovery tags in my RSS and RSS2 templates on my typad weblog. - my feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/Life2point0

The code I need to change looks like this:
<link><$MTBlogURL$></link>

I think I need to change it to this, but I am not sure:
<link> http://feeds.feedburner.com/Life2point0</link>

Do I need to enclose the URL within quotation marks?
Thanks

The auto-discovery tags are not in your RSS feeds, but are located in the HTML templates and pages of your blog itself. In your main index and archive templates look for code that looks like this:
<link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom" href="<$MTBlogURL$>atom.xml" /> 
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS 1.0" href="<$MTBlogURL$>index.rdf" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS 2.0" href="<$MTBlogURL$>index.xml" />

And replace it with:
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS" href=" http://feeds.feedburner.com/Life2point0" />

I hope that helps!
