XF 1.4 RSS -> author array must include a... Error

[MrFreeze]

Invalid parameter: author array must include a "name" key with a non-empty string value in /var/web/domain1/html/library/Zend/Feed/Writer/Entry.php on line 92

Can you provide some more details?

You've prefixed the thread with XF 1.4 but what version specifically? (Though I think there was a bug fixed in a much older XF version that was fixed before 1.4).

When does this happen? Is it just logged in the error log? Or when visiting a certain page? Are there any other details, such as a stack trace?

version is XenForo 1.4.7
no Addons
error log is clean as far apart from these messages

Based on your previous message, I assume you imported? Did you use the big board importer? If so, it has imported some invalid data. That forum (domain1.com/forum/test-thread.1139/) likely includes a thread with no name for the thread starter. It would have to be removed (or data edited in the DB directly).

I had in VB probably some faulty threads (without posts) have been imported and then made worse. Also the User Info missing in the Thread

thanks!
