Hey guys,

I'm using Feed Notifier so I can be up to date with job posts on various UpWork RSS feeds.

Until recently everything worked fine, I was getting Pop-Up notifications non-stop, but suddenly I stopped getting them.

I've deleted all feeds, uninstalled Feed Notifier and installed it again, after which I tried to add the feeds, but I'm getting the next message:

"This does not appear to be a valid RSS or Atom feed."

For instance, this is the RSS Url I'm trying to add:

https://www.upwork.com/ab/feed/topics/rss?securityToken=a66ccccccee34f94c586a86e871c43b4b2088224ab033321902a8ce686f6115eb7e3ee02f5443a6a8487d725935e1126466e0c980b4c716aa9f417706d2d6a1b&userUid=424326961846927360&orgUid=424326961846927362

I successfully added it on Feedly Notifier, but I can't add it on Feed Notifier.

My friend tried adding the above mentioned feed from UpWork on his RSS Notifying App on Mac and he added it successfully.

Any ideas on how can I resolve this issue?

Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

I am facing same issue. But I can fix it by copy original RSS URL to Google's Feedburner. Then you will get new Feedburner RSS URL. Just copy the new URL to Feed Notifier.

Now all is normal.

I have done. Some of feed engines don't accept custom user-agent. change user-agent to browser's user-agent(chrome or firefox).
