 * Hi RNBJunkie,
 * The ‘script’ and ‘iframe’ recommendations aren’t errors, just recommendations
   for the feed to work with the “widest range of feed readers”.
 * For the purpose of adding the feed to the Publisher Center for Google News though,
   we don’t have to worry about a wide range or readers, just one. And the Publisher
   Center ignores the ‘script’ and ‘iframe’ tags – so they aren’t a problem. You
   can ignore those.
 * The only ‘recommendations’ you do have to be careful about is when it reports
   html errors, as those do cause problems with the Publisher Center,

 * Hi Krishna,
 * I hate to say it, but Google News Publisher support isn’t always correct.
 * Can you tell me a little more about the issue you are having in the Publisher
   Center? Is your publication currently ‘live’ and if so, what are you seeing?
 * Chris

 * Hi Krishna,
 * I’ve been looking over your feed, site, and the images, and I don’t know why,
   but it looks like Google just isn’t indexing some of your images. And if they
   don’t index them, they can’t display them next to your articles.
 * The GN Publisher feed is working and looks correct, it’s not an issue with the
   feed.
 * If you go and look at the images from your site that Google has indexed over 
   the last week, you’ll find some are missing:
 * [https://www.google.com/search?q=site:rnbjunk.com&tbm=isch&hl=en&tbs=qdr:w](https://www.google.com/search?q=site:rnbjunk.com&tbm=isch&hl=en&tbs=qdr:w)
 * for example, it has not indexed adele-festa one nor the never-gonna-not-dance-
   again one.
 * Since the problem is not related to the feed nor the plugin, there’s nothing 
   that can be done within the plugin that will help.
 * I know you’ve posted on the Google News Publisher help forum as well, and I’ll
   continue to try to help you over there, but honestly, from what I can see and
   do publically through a forum, I’m not sure why these aren’t indexing,
 * Chris
