 * Hello,
 * I just installed WP RSS Aggregator to help import properties from my partner 
   websites and the feeds do not import. Below are the errors. Am I missing something
   or do i need a different plugin
 * 2020-08-06 21:13:59 Error Failed to fetch the feed from [http://portal.apinmo.com/xml/g0lfsun1/1582-web.xml](http://portal.apinmo.com/xml/g0lfsun1/1582-web.xml).
   Error: A feed could not be found at [http://portal.apinmo.com/xml/g0lfsun1/1582-web.xml](http://portal.apinmo.com/xml/g0lfsun1/1582-web.xml).
   This does not appear to be a valid RSS or Atom feed.
 * 2020-08-06 21:13:39 Error WP Mayor Failed to fetch the feed from [https://www.villasbuigues.com/feed/sooprema/ver/spain-hunting-inmo-group/](https://www.villasbuigues.com/feed/sooprema/ver/spain-hunting-inmo-group/).

   This does not appear to be a valid RSS or Atom feed.

   A feed with an invalid mime type may fall victim to this error, or SimplePie 
   was unable to auto-discover it.. Use force_feed() if you are certain this URL
   is a real feed.

 * The problem is that none of the three feeds pass validation checks on [W3C Feed Validation Service](https://validator.w3.org/feed/).
 * Although our plugin carries out some measure of error tolerance, it will be best
   to have RSS feeds that pass most validation checks and are built according to
   the [RSS 2.0 specification](https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html).

 * Thanks. I assumed the syntax wasnt up to standards. I cant get them to rewrite
   their code. Is there anyway around this to make it more compliant e.g. via an
   external website that can clean up the code?
 * Or can I make the WP RSS plugin less strict, so it passes the feed. Without this,
   I will not be able to buy the plugin and use it.

 * I’m afraid the sources have to follow the [RSS 2.0 Specifications](https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html)
   as far as possible.
 * There is no available workaround for the feeds.
 * It seems the best option for you would be to have a custom solution implemented.
