Feed works in WordPress 4.2.2 not in 4.2.3

    I use a feed from Auction Zip to display my clients auctions on his website. The site is not live yet. Up until I upgraded to 4.2.3 it worked just fine.
    The popup window says “Please set the UID for your feed” You can click ok but it displays nothing.

    <script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
var az_feed_uid=xxxxxx; var az_feed=xxx;
// ]]></script>
<script src="https://www.auctionzip.com/includes/xmlfeed.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

    Any ideas appreciated.

  • I’ve never used this before, but I assume you will need to replace the xxxxxx in az_feed_uid=xxxxxx in the script tag with your client’s auction feed id.

    I’m not sure where you would get that information, but that is what it is asking you for.

    I have that information, I used xx because I did not want to put my client’s information on the forum post. It works on a Drupal site, and it worked until I upgraded WordPress to 4.2.3

    I, too, use auctionzip to post my weekly auctions on my website but the error code “please set the uid for your feed” pops up. As you can see below, the uid is set. Any suggestions? Thanks so much in advance.

    <script type=”text/javascript”>
    // <![CDATA[
    var az_feed_uid=109744;
    var az_feed=129;
    // ]]>
    </script>
    <script src=”https://www.auctionzip.com/includes/xmlfeed.js&#8221; type=”text/javascript”></script>

    The post I referenced above tells you how to fix it.

    Try this

    <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ var az_feed_uid=109744; var az_feed=129; /* ]]> */ </script>
<script src="https://www.auctionzip.com/includes/xmlfeed.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

    THANKS SO MUCH! IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO…WHEN I POST FUTURE AUCTIONS, SHOULD I JUST CHANGE THE FEED NUMBER?

    I use it for two clients, they have multiple auctions, it picks up whatever is on Auction Zip there should not be a need to change anything.

    Glad I could help.

    YOU ROCK! THANKS AGAIN.
