    Hi,

    Sorry for the trouble here. While the feed validator doesn’t work, do your feed itself work? https://www.yoursitename.com/feed

    If you can narrow down the particular part of the plugin that’s blocking the feed validator on your site, that’d be great. Just disable a feature at a time until it starts working again. Any help you can offer to narrow this down would be great.

    Hi Paul, indeed my feed itself worked fine at that time. That means I could browse it normally.

    But Simple firewall, at that time, was blocking external sites from fetching https://yoursitename.com/feed after checking Ignore Search Engines.

    Well, today I receive a warning telling WordPress Simple Firewall got updated to version 4.7.7. I have updated it, I have unchecked “Ignore Search Engines”, cleared the cache and fetched the feed again and it is working fine.

    External sites now are able to fetch my site’s feed and I do not need to check Ignore Search Engines at Whitelist tab. So it is working fine again.

    Thank you

    Ah okay, great! Glad it’s working better for you now, thanks for reporting back and sorry for the trouble.

    May I ask, if you like the plugin, could you leave us a nice review on www.remarpro.com? ??

    Thanks!
