Category Specific RSS feed Subscription

Currently, the plugin does not work for me. 

It displays a menu but all links point to category archive pages instead of RSS feeds. 

I have checked that I am using pretty permalinks. I have also tried both shortcode and widget methods to no avail.

Adds link to Category Archives instead of RSS Feeds

I was just about to write some code to create a feed when I came across this plugin. It does the trick perfectly. Thank you.
