Works fine for me here, using firefox.

As Illori asked, is this happening here, on this site (since that is where your screenshot seems to come from)?

were you also hitting server 113?


if this is an issue with THIS site, then it does not belong in 2.0.x support


nope... I can not recreate the issue on any of the servers. 111, 113, 114 all work fine for me. RSS loads into the RSS reader page

might be a browser issue.... because I can not get it to happen on *ANY* SMF site.

Using Firefox
60.8.0esr (64-bit)

I get the same as you in Firefox.  Seems to work ok in other browsers.

Didn't they kill off support for RSS feeds in Firefox last year, or did I read this incorrectly.

yep looks like firefox no longer supports RSS reader as a built in feature.
