WP HTTP Error: couldn’t connect to host for RSS feeds on same domain

Anyone with a similar issue:

First off, try the following after connecting to your webhost via SSH:

ping <yourwebsite>

If you get a “cannot connect to host” issue, there’s a firewall or NAT problem blocking traffic for RSS. Contact your server admin.
