Plugin cannot handle & symbol #34

Closed RichardJECooke closed 3 weeks ago

I'm using all the default code copied and pasted from https://www.11ty.dev/docs/plugins/rss/.

When viewing the resulting .xml page on my site, the browser tells me there is invalid xml in this line:

<title>Deploying Azure web apps (faster) & remote debugging</title>

I don't think the plugin escapes the & sign correctly in posts it adds.

If you’re using the Nunjucks template, it will escape properly!

What template language are you using?

What template language are you using?

Nunjucks. I googled and saw you have to add | escape to the feed.njk file in your documentation to get it to work. That should be added I think, took me a while to find.

(I also had to change posts to post, because no one tags a post as plural)

Yeah, sorry. Nunjucks has an autoescape feature on by default so you shouldn’t need to use the escape filter. https://mozilla.github.io/nunjucks/templating.html#autoescaping

Does your project disable the autoescape? That might explain it better
