XF 1.3 Registered feeds ignoring {author}

[Bubka3]

So, here is my feed link: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/aocgamers/rss/

In the feed viewer, I have (in part):

[url="{link}"]By {author}, view this announcement on Steam...[/url]

However, it ends up like this:
By , view this announcement on Steam...

It just ignores {author} completely and I don't understand why. Ideas?

Thanks.

Confirmed with that feed.

I don't see any obvious problems to explain this. I will debug it later.

It's actually down to feed validation. This is something we currently violate as well, but here it's the Zend Framework feed reader that's enforcing it, annoyingly.

The <author> tag there is supposed to have an email address and then a name in parentheses. (See: http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http://steamcommunity.com/groups/aocgamers/rss/) Because it doesn't, the author isn't considered valid and is ignored.
