HTML showing in post

Open frankmeeuwsen opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

The feed of Peter Rukavina's blog shows fine in my feedreader (image below) but in Monocle it shows the HTML content of the post. When I check the debug-screen, I see there's HTML in the JSON as well. I'm not sure if this is some bad rendering on the side of Peter's feed, forgiveness of Inoreader, sanitization in Aperture or maybe something else?

I need a little more information in order to track this down:

  • What Microsub server are you using? It looks like it's not Aperture.
  • What feed of his are you following? I looked at his site and he has Microformats as well as an RSS feed.

Looking at the debug JSON you posted, I see a couple problems with the data there, which is a problem with whatever Microsub server you're using.

  • author should never be a string, it should always be an object with the name, url and photo properties. https://indieweb.org/Microsub-spec#card
  • summary is a plaintext value, and cannot contain HTML, which is why you're seeing the HTML tags in Monocle. I need to know what feed of his you're following and which Microsub server you're using in order to tell exactly where the problem is here.

Thanks. I thought I had Aperture enabled but later today I found out I still had Yarns activated in my WordPress environment. So that's the Microsub server I use for this feed. I am subscribed to https://ruk.ca/rss/feedburner.xml on this server. I will do some more testing with both servers and feed. I'll post my findings later.

@frankmeeuwsen, This is definitely a Yarns issue then, I'll check it out and will update you when I have it fixed

I just switched to Monocle to see what would happen. I am subscribed to the same feed, now Monocle show the correct parsed HTML. Thanks for the update @jackjamieson2. Do you need me to file an issue at your repo?
