Im not seeing an error?

Im seeing the RSS output but with nothing listed...

I think it may be with your description. Can you open external.php and find this:

Code:

echo "\t<description>" . html_entity_decode($Core->settings['description']). "</description>\r\n";

Change the html_entity_decode to htmlentities and see if that sorts it?

Thanks for the reply Eric, but that didn't work, still the same...

Seems to work fine for me, perhaps you've already fixed it.

Ahhh, found it.... it was this character '-' in my site description, i removed the dash and it now shows in IE but not in Chrome

Now, how to sort Chrome out... The listings are coming back now but totally unformatted
