    Hi – I’ve recently set up my first WordPress blog site which works well. However, when I supply the above RSS feed url to another site, I’m advised of the following error:

    While trying to add it I get:
    This XML document is invalid, likely due to invalid characters. XML error:
    Mismatched tag at line 30, column 117

    If I check my feed at https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthinkr.biz%2Fcategory%2Fr%2Ffeed%2F, it doesn’t throw up an error.

    I wondered if anyone could kindly advise how best to isolate and fix the problem in WordPress?

    The feed also displays okay in Firefox. The above w3.org validator link reports a “Non-html tag: figcaption” as a recommendation, but this anyway shows on line 56.

    Not sure how to ensure I can supply a clean feed.

    I see there is a “Fix My Feed RSS Repair” plugin, but this hasn’t been updated for 2 years, so I’m reluctant to try that.
