Malformed CSS URLs

    Hi, I’m experiencing a critical issue with the Feeds for YouTube plugin.

    It’s generating malformed CSS URLs like:

    /wp-content/plugins/feeds-for-youtube/css/https://www.website.co.uk/wp-content/plugins/feeds-for-youtube/public/build/css/sb-youtube-common.css

    This results in repeated requests and broken asset loading.

    Additionally, the plugin is throwing fatal errors in cron:

    Uncaught Exception: String could not be parsed as XML
    /wp-content/plugins/feeds-for-youtube/inc/SBY_RSS_Connect.php:77

    This appears to be causing periodic CPU spikes and 5xx errors on the server.

    Hi @seopie,

    For the first issue with broken CSS, we are investigating a potential conflict with Elementor where the plugin loads both the correct CSS and broken similar to the link snippet you shared. I have not received any reports of the second issue with the 5xx errors, after wp-cron functions run.

    To investigate both issues further, please submit a support request via the form on our website, https://smashballoon.com/support/, and include the System Info. 

    To obtain this information, please follow the steps on this page: https://smashballoon.com/doc/how-to-get-system-info. We ask you to use our form, as the System Info contains other website information from your site, which we do not suggest posting here.

    Best Regards,

    Hi @seopie,

    It’s our pleasure to help! The version that I linked to includes a fix for the malformed CSS URLs, but if you continue to see the second cron related issue, please submit a support request on website as Nigel mentioned, and we’ll be happy to investigate this further.

    Thanks!

    Hi @smashballoonlouis

    Was the fix made for the malformed CSS URLs in the last version update?

    Thanks
