fetch_feed suddenly returning "WP HTTP Error: couldn't connect to host"
-
I pull in over 100 news, blog, and podcast sites feeds and compile just today’s and yesterdays posts into a page.

It has been working fine for many years until suddenly this morning all sites return “WP HTTP Error: couldn’t connect to host”.
Is anyone else having this problem suddenly? I am thinking perhaps it is my hosting provide, though I’ve not heard back yet.
I also maintain many pages outside of WordPress and grab feeds in a different way on those, which still works fine. I was thinking I would replace fetch_feed with a variation of the coding below if I cannot figure it out.
If you have any thoughts or suggestions I thank you for taking the time to respond.
<?php // Get rss feed function getFeed($feed_url) { $content = file_get_contents($feed_url); $x = new SimpleXmlElement($content); foreach($x->channel->item as $entry) { echo "<li><b><a href='$entry->link' title='$entry->title'>" . $entry->title . "</a></b></li><br>"; } } $feed = mysql_escape_string('https://oooorgle.com/BeyondTheCorral/feed'); getFeed($feed); ?>
