Pligg 1.20 RSS not working

[pubup]

Hi, I'm using the latest Pligg 1.20,
storyrss.php works fine,
but the RSS feed (rss.php) just shows a title and empty page for category page,
does anyone know what might be wrong here?

Thank you!

I think it's a bug in RSS, I have also encountered this many times. Some common cause are invalid characters, for example if you have a story titled "Tom & Jerry" it will cause the RSS to blank because of the & character.

Try to browse the rss.php in Opera and it will give you the exact error, not a blank page.

Me too. I got the following error:

This page contains the following errors:

error on line 11 at column 34: xmlParseEntityRef: no name
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.

example| Top News http://exampledotcom

Thanks a lot, my site tag line did have a "&",
I change "&" to "and" and now problem solved

I am having the same issue with Pligg version 1.1.5... can anyone please offer a solution?

As I have previously stated, try to browse the rss.php in Opera and it will give you the error and you can try to solve it.

CMS, thank you, I appreciate it - the issue was with an ampersand symbol in my meta description, similar to what the other user experienced above. Opera clearly identified this as the issue.

Take note that there are also other characters beside the ampersand that may cause an error, I just don't remember it.

To TS, can you post this on bug tracker so that Yankidank may notice of this?
