Cant recieve RSS feed

Abram · Oct 9, 2020, 8:11 AM

I have had other feeds working correctly, however when trying to use the default newsfeed module with “https://www.news.com.au/content-feeds/latest-news-technology/”, it doesn’t load.

Note: “https://www.news.com.au/feed/” does work.

At this point, i’m lost.
Someone have any answers?

@Abram looks like that feed isn’t formatted as MM expects…

the code expects some kind of published date on each item entry, while the feed only lists that as part of the feed header

			const title = item.title;
			let description = item.description || item.summary || item.content || "";
			const pubdate = item.pubdate || item.published || item.updated || item["dc:date"];  // get pub date date
			const url = item.url || item.link || "";

			if (title && pubdate) {  //< - ---

@Abram the current code has no ability to see the header or its contents
