HELP! RSS feed block suddenly stopped working!


Recommended Posts

I have been using the RSS feed block succesfully for two of my clients websites ot show the latest post from their self hosted wordpress blog on the homepage. Even thought the module apparently won't allow feed urls rom the same domain, this has worked for the last two years with my http://www.domain.com/blog/?feed=rss

 

However it has suddenly stopped working i the past two weeks on both sites. One uses Prestashop 1.3.1 and the other 1.3.7 and in both I now just get "No RSS Feed Added"

 

Why would this work fine and then suddenly stop?! The feed urls themselves resolve correctly, so the issue is not with the url

 

I have noticed others have had this issue but no answer has been given - it is important that this is sorted out.

FINALLY! I twigged that this started happenign at the same time my clients started to get a message about activating allow_url_fopen so I simply added allow_url_fopen=on to php.ini and now all works just fine. They are on the same host and they must have changed something recently.
