Fetching thumbnails for Google RSS News Feed.

Hi Aakash,

I recently updated the Super RSS Pro plugin on my site to version 5.2 and adjusted my shortcode accordingly. However, I’m encountering an issue where thumbnails are not being generated for the news feed.

Here is the shortcode I’m currently using:

——–
[srr_feed urls=”https://news.google.com/rss/search?q=grief&hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en” tab_titles=”Android” show_thumb=1 thumbnail_size=”200px” thumbnail_force=”always” thumbnail_position=”cover” color_style=”twitter” filter_type=”show” filter_name=”exclude_this” show_author=”1″ show_date=”1″ display_type=”grid” template=”%%thumbnail%% %%metadata%%
%%title%%
%%description%%” grid_columns=”4″ read_more=”Read More” count=”20″ ]

I based this upgrade on your version 5.0 changelog, which mentions: “PRO: Google news and Google alerts RSS feeds will now fetch thumbnail image.”

Following this, I removed the custom code you previously provided on this thread (https://www.aakashweb.com/forum/topic/fetching-a-single-thumbnail-for-all-google-rss-feed-2/) for displaying thumbnails specifically for Google News feeds. However, when I re-added the custom code, it caused the following error:

———–

Despite these efforts, the thumbnails are still not showing. Is there any additional configuration or update needed to resolve this issue and ensure the thumbnails display correctly?

Let me know your feedback.
Thanks
