  • Custom Feed Help Contains Category with apostrophe

    This feed is pulling in the wrong photos for my valentine's day category:

    I'm not sure if its because of the apostrophe? It's only bringing in half of my photos that aren't in that category anymore?

    Any help would be great!

    Thanks

    I believe this is correct, the apostrophe may effect the full feed. Try creating the category without the apostrophe and see if it works better.

    I am sure its the Apostrophe since I have another support ticket on another issue with the apostrophe. We have over 100 photos and I don't want to have to re-tag them all.. Is there any other alternatives?

    I tried to URL encode this but if you replace the apostrophe with a %26 it breaks the whole feed and I would imagine that would be the only way to go about fixing.

    Any idea when the apostrophe and Ampersand symbols will start working again in the AC? This has happened to me in November and I had a support ticket on it, nothing was fixed and i sent in another support ticket in Jan about it and now the Apostrophe is not working for the past month, a fix soon would be great.

    i dont think this is something that can be fixed, it's the W3C validation that prevent certain characters in URLs

    Why would this feed work then? it contains an apostrophe, I created this a few months ago and it displays items.

    I have sent around an email to our QA team, when I hear back from them I will let you know.
