XF 2.2 RSS Feed Parsing Error

[Joe Blow]

One of my users has reported an RSS feed error that started happening recently. When I tried to validate the feed on one of the RSS feed validation websites, I received a parsing error.

Sorry

This feed does not validate.

• line 2, column 84: XML parsing error: <unknown>:2:84: not well-formed (invalid token) [help]
  
  ... .org/2005/Atom#utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/ ...

Here is the screenshot from the website output:



Does anyone know why this would have started happening recently or what can be done to fix it so that the RSS feed validates correctly?

Thanks.

Bingo! I recently installed [DigitalPoint] Better Google Analytics addon and noticed that a recent update fixed the following issue:

Fixes issue with medium/source tracking in RSS feed causing the RSS feed to not validate as being valid

I have updated the addon and the issue is now resolved. Thanks!
