• Hi all,

    My RSS feed isn’t working.

    With the plugin https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/fix-rss-feed/ I removed the first blank line in my XML feed…

    Because this source I wans’t able to use completely, because I didn’t understand everything: https://feed2.w3.org/docs/error/WPBlankLine.html

    However, one problem solved, two still remains.

    This feed does not validate.
    
    line 34, column 1: Undefined item element: p (2 occurrences) [help]
    
    	<p>Het goede nieuws is eindelijk daar, Ruzzle is nu ook gratis voor Windows ...
     ^
    line 35, column 3: XML parsing error: <unknown>:35:3: mismatched tag [help]
    
    	</item>

    My feed is:

    https://ruzzleonline.net/feed/.

    PS I already disabled all plugins, didn’t help.

    Kind regards,

    Willem-Siebe Spoelstra

    Does the same thing occur with all plugins deactivated and one of the default WordPress themes, such as Twenty Eleven/ Twelve?

    Hi,

    I followed your instructions, I deactivated all plugins and installed theme Twenty Twelve.

    A new error occurs in this case (the other are gone):

    Sorry
    
    This feed does not validate.
    
    line 33, column 0: Unexpected Text (18 occurrences) [help]
    
    	The Ruzzle chatt hasn’t been operating very well lately. Fortunately, ...

    The strange thing is, if I change RSS to full text my feed does validate, but that’s not want I want, I want the summarized version.

    Hope you can point me in the right direction.

    Kind regards,

    Willem

    PS If you want to check the current situation (twenty twelve, no plugins activated) you can enter the website on my staging address:

    I now know why you asked it, when you click the link you see a complete xml document where indeed I previous had errors…

    However, I didn’t check it that way because if you type in the URL at feedvalidator.org is still not validated…

    I’m going to check if Mailchimp recognize the feed.

    Kind regards,

    Willem

    Mailchimp reconize the URL (the URL you also mentioned), so, with all plugins deactivated, and the Twenty Twelve theme, it does work (although feedvalidator says not). I’m going to start testing again with activating everything and see what causes the problem.

    Ok, it’s the theme…. ??

    I’m going to ask them about this problem! Thanks for all your help.

    Ow, it’s not the theme, somehow my plugins were not deactivated, no I start with the plugins…

    Ok, the theme and video seo plugin from yoast don’t work well together for the summarized feed. The full feed does work.
