 * Hello,
 * I am receiving the following error:
 * > Invalid feed URL – Double check the feed source URL setting above.
 * I am trying to import a source feed from a Drupal website. The Feed URL is correct
   and validates. See:
    [http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ingeniarecruitment.co.uk%2Fvacancies%2Fbodyshop%2Ffeed](http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ingeniarecruitment.co.uk%2Fvacancies%2Fbodyshop%2Ffeed)
 * I am wondering if it is the “HTTPS” that is causing the issue here?
 * The Drupal site is running PHP5.6 while the WordPress is running PHP 5.5.

 * Hi beefSupreme,
 * Sorry for late reply.
 * It seems you are having similar problem we have written [here](https://docs.wprssaggregator.com/solving-errors/#the-resource-could-not-be-retrieved-because-of-a-client-error-with-code-400).
 * Could you please try the [Feed Request User Agent](https://docs.wprssaggregator.com/general-plugin-settings#feed-request-user-agent)
   solution provided there?
 * Please let us know the result.

 * Hello,
 * The link says to set the useragent to something more standard but does not provide
   an example of how to do so within WordPress. Can this be done using a Child theme
   without modifying WP core?
 * If so how?

 * Never mind. I followed the link and only later noticed the screenshot at the 
   top pointing out the options page for WP RSS Aggregator.
 * I clearly need more coffee…

 * Thanks Eric. It did solve my problem – I had a separate issue with Cron – but
   fixed that by using the WP Alternative Cron.
 * Marking this resolved.
