Mine feed reader stopped processing EDF again on 20th October. Did something change?


Here are the issues I can see:

1 - EDF is not responding to requests from certain IP addresses (validator.w3.org and probably feed readers) - *I suspect this is the issue with my RSS reader*


2 - validator.w3.org reports validation fails on these (they might cause an issue for some RSS parsers):

Using the element under RSS2.0 requires a valid email address (EDF RSS uses the EDF username)


3 - validator.w3.org suggests "In addition, interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendations."

Remove &raquo (html '>>') from the forum descriptions. The front page shows 5 occurances of &raquo (html '>>') ie " Discuss life in London's East Dulwich. Talk about local restaurants, pubs, shops, services, transport, planning, it's up to you » "

Missing atom:link with rel="self" - https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/warning/MissingAtomSelfLink.html

Do you know the IPs of your RSS feeder?


We have blocked various countries from having access to the forum because of the amount of spam we get from them. I suspect that your validators/readers come from those countries. If you look at the link https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/rss.php you can see it works.

    • Does anyone know what happened to the lovely willow tree on the rye? 
    • Long shot, but I don’t suppose anyone has a Sticklinch car parking ticket that they don’t need for Glastonbury? Or could switch with my general parking ticket at all? Thanks!
    • Many years ago, our neighbours were in a Southwark rented property. Both flats in house had access to a shared garden which was fenced off part way with each flat having their own piece of land. The front garden was shared and since both flats had young children, they put up a fence and gate between front door and pavement. Nothing was said by the council and even though those neighbours are now living else where, the fence and gate still remain and Southwark owns the freehold.
    • If you can use it exclusively for yourself for 12 years it might become yours by default under squatters rights? Maybe whack a bench on it and plant some flowers and then a little hedge around the perimeter to keep people out? I'm not sure if any of this is legal but it might be fun finding out?
