Hi everyone.

I'm importing some feeds into vb 3.8.5. I'm at a loss as to why my RSS feeds have suddenly stopped working about 4 days ago. Here is a screenshot of the error I get

150153

They are all facebook feeds which have stopped working, but when going to the feed link it still works fine? https://www.facebook.com/feeds/page.php?id=127939947290486&format=rss20

I have disabled all plugins but it made no difference.

Any idea's? Thanks. :)

Can you post the settings of one of the feeds that isn't working?

These are the settings for the feed from the first post -

150156

150157

150158

Incidentally, the feeds work fine on my 4.2 forum, just the 3.8.5 one that they've stopped working on.

Other feeds work fine, it's just the Facebook ones that are giving this error.

Well, I notice that the url apparently redirects to an https url. I'm not sure offhand if the vb code handles getting a feed from a secure link. You could try changing them to https in the settings. What does your vb4 forum have for urls?

You could try changing them to https in the settings.:up::up::up: That did it, I changed all of the http to https and they're all working fine now, thank you very much.:D
What does your vb4 forum have for urls? It also has just the http and not https but it's working fine on vb4 with the http.

Thanks for the help, much appreciated.
