Images don’t show up… yet?

    Hi,

    This is very weird. I’m using Feedly to check if images show up after installing and activating your pluging, but they don’t.

    I have deactivated WP Fastest Cache and Autoptimize, and has cleared Cloudflare, but still no luck. Could it be that it takes time?

    Besides my regular /feed/ rss feed, I also have another one which I want to use.
    It’s /circulos/feed/
    I have others, like /woo/feed/, but no one seems to work.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I’m seeing images in your raw feed’s HTML:

    <description><![CDATA[<a href="https://www.mujeressentadasencirculo.org/blog/la-madre-tierra-necesitaba-un-respiro/" title="La Madre Tierra necesitaba un respiro" rel="nofollow"><img width="1024" height="576" src="https://www.mujeressentadasencirculo.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/atacando_a_madretierra.jpg" class="webfeedsFeaturedVisual wp-post-image" alt="Madre Tierra" style="display: block; margin: auto; margin-bottom: 5px;max-width: 100%;" link_thumbnail="1" /></a> ...

    Many times the external services cache the feed URL, and only update it when a new post is detected, you can try adding a cachebuster to the URL such as:
    https://yourdomain.com/feed/?nocache123

    and test that. If images are shown now but not on the plain URL, it’s cached. Some services like Mailchimp use the new URL going forward without any issues.

    If the service has no way to clear the cache, just know that images are in the feed now, and going forward it will work ok, but I don’t think there’s a way to get it to update otherwise. Perhaps reach out to Feedly via Twitter or their website about some way of having them reload your past posts.

    Hi, many thanks for your reply! ??

    I have added to Feedly my main feed url with ?nocache123 and it works.

    But, please, would you say that this one also contains images?

    https://www.mujeressentadasencirculo.org/circulos/feed/

    I see this: <media:content medium=”image” url=”https://www.mujeressentadasencirculo.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Prende-el-fuego-de-tu-pasion-vFinal.jpg&#8221; width=”800″ height=”800″ />

    I’m not sure if that’s a correct way to show images in a feed. (This feed seems not to be valid according to the feed validators). This a feed for events. And I’m very interested in using this one.

    Would you recommend I contact the plugin owner? Or you think this one shoud be working as well?

    That one seems to be using media tags instead of the image being added to the description like the normal field… that may be caused by whatever plugin is generating that feed, it’s adding images in it’s own way perhaps. I don’t think our plugin is the one adding the image to that particular feed, but depending on the feed reader or service, it may still work, and many services use the media tag for images, some even require it.

    Let me know if we can help further.
