Hi,

First of all, I'd like to compliment you on a very good module. It looks great and is very customizable.

One slight issue that has been happening since installing your module is that following error message has been randomly appearing at the top of our site:

Failed loading XML... StartTag: invalid element name Premature end of data in tag creator line 1 Premature end of data in tag item line 1 Premature end of data in tag channel line 1 Premature end of data in tag rss line 1

It doesn't seem to affect the loading of the feed, but it's not something we'd like showing up when a customer visits.

Does the error message look familiar? Have we misconfigured something?

Feed URL - probonoaustralia.com.au/feed/?post_type=news

Thanks,

Cali

Hello Cali,

validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fprobonoaustralia.com.au%2Ffeed%2F%3Fpost_type%3Dnews

For some reason the feed does not validate. Can you try with a different feed?

Yes I got the same error trying to validate it.

The feed still works though, and is still updating now.

To remedy the situation I changed the settings so that it only updates the feed every 20 hours as I suspect that the message only showed when it was retrieving the feed.

Unfortunately since this is a remote issue, this is the only solution, apart from temporarily removing the feed.

Dear Krikor,

I have the same problem as described by Cali and unfortunately after thoroughly scrutinizing the forum I didn´t find an answer.

I just updated Joomla (from 3.4 to 3.6) and the Simple RSS Feed Reader to the newest version. Although I changed no configuration the hitherto successfully used rss feed (www.scoop.it/t/schlaglichter-aus-ernahrung-umwelt-gesellschaft-und-forschung/rss.xml) unfortunaltey didn´t work now.

Instead on top of the side the message occurs:
"Warning
JFile: :read: Unable to open file: www.scoop.it/t/schlaglichter-aus-ernahrung-umwelt-gesellschaft-und-forschung/rss.xml
×
Message
Failed loading XML..."

Do you have an idea, what might be an explanation for that?

Toni
