How are you implementing the feed? I’ve checked the feed you’ve set up and was able to display it fine. Could you send over the shortcode if you are adding it via shortcode.
I know it’s a small issue, but could you check your feed URL and see if there’s any & amp;
characters (without the space)? They should just be &

Hi There,
Strange, both those appear to be working here.
Could you disable caching? See if that works?
Could you try adding an RSS widget? Just as a test?
Cache disabled and i tried to the adding the the RSS widget and get this
An error has occurred, which probably means the feed is down. Try again later.
Could you try adding an RSS feed which we know is working? Something like http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/rss.xml – in the RSS Feed URL box.
Just a final test.
Hi Rhys,
Sorted now PHP XML was not installed on my server. Solved by running the following command.
sudo apt-get install php-xml
then restarting apache
sudo service apache2 restart
Thank you for all your help 🙂

Hi There,
Awesome! I was suspecting it was something to do with SimplePie.
Glad you got it working. If you’ve time (and don’t mind) – please consider giving a review here – https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ebay-feeds-for-wordpress/reviews/. It really helps the algorithm and the plugin to show up in search results.
Thanks!
