I've used this product before on Joomla 1.5... I just downloaded the Joomla 3.0 version and installed it without issue.  However, when I put in the Feed, it doesn't show up on the page at all.  I have tested the feed and know that it works.  Still nothing shows up.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Is there really no way to fix this? 

Same problem here with a similar RSS-Feed based on RSS 2.0. Perhaps someone could have a look, since I did not have any problems displaying this feed in Joomla 1.5, using the Joomla-Standard-Feed-Display or using Wordpress... Problem just in Joomla 3.1 with latest version of SimpleRSS...

Which RSS version do you use?

Hello everyone.
I came across the same problem you had: the module with my Google Blogger rss didn't show a thing.
Module version i'm using is the 3.0 and my RSS link is aurorasanfrancesco.blogspot.it//feeds/posts/default?alt=rss .
I tried some debug and solved this way:
open helper.php located under "\modules\mod_jw_srfr"
find this rowreplace it withAfter that, go under "\cache\mod_jw_srfr\feeds" and delete al the .cache  files in order to be re-created after you refresh your web page in the browser.
It should work, i tried your RSS links too and was fine for me.

I'm not a PHP specialist, but it seems this original cleanup code, under some specific kind of RSS, mess the XML up , so that the "simplexml_load_string" function (called after) won't work.
Maybe Joomlaworks staff could investigate on this case, i think this one can be fixed some better way than mine.
Hope this helped.
Cheers.

An update is to be this month that will solve the problem.

Is there any word on what date this month this patch will be coming out?  Or a workaround (even code editing would be fine for me) that we can put in place to fix the issue until the official patch releases?

So it turns out that my problem was invalid characters in the supposedly UTF-8 rss feed I was pulling.  This module does not return useful errors for this case at all.  I was able to put in a utf8_encode() around the $feed before the call to simplexml_load_string and it cleans it up enough that I'm at least getting output.  It would be useful if this module had more robust error handling for these kind of problems.
