RSS feed won’t validate

6 years ago · Last reply by Andrew Misplon 6 years ago

We use Vantage Premium and just found out our main RSS feed doesn’t validate. According to the feed validator there is an extra line at the top. Where do I go to fix this?

Feed validator results: https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.vermontlibraries.org%2Ffeed%2F

Thanks for any assistance.

    Hi J

    Thanks for posting.

    Please, try temporarily switching to a default theme like Twenty Seventeen and then re-validating the feed. That’ll help diagnose whether the theme is involved in the validation error.

    Thank you — I did that and it looks like it’s a problem with the site and not the theme (i.e. the validation issue persists). Will continue to explore. Thanks.

    Thanks for running that test. I’m not sure off hand what the problem may be. Hope you’re able to find a solution quickly. Good luck :)
