I have been using instant articles on facebook for some time now with my website, However stopped using Newspaper due to the script interfering with the instant article display. However now the same is happening with News Mag since updating.
the script shows as the following within Instant Articles and adds lines such as .NewLine; at random places throughout the article.
I note that you say you do not support this plugin. Therefore i will be changing the theme i am using as i have ran these themes for over 3 years and then instant articles for over two years without a problem.
I would suggest you ensure your themes are working with the latest tech out there otherwise you will lose a lot of future customers.
Personally i will now be looking to change the theme we are using and walk away from TagDiv unless you are able to support this, it is your coding that has stop this from working.
I’m facing same problem.
I use instant article for wp plugin,rss feed will no show any contents.
All characters showing “??????????????????Newline”! And no image or any media.
This is a big trouble.
Hello all,
Sorry, but we have no official method for instant articles. There is this topic where some of our users discuss the issues presented using the FBIA: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/newsmag-media-elements-incompatible-with-facebook-instant-articles/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello Catalin
Your new coding has broken an element within the RSS that stops it reading with instant articles correctly.
I had to stop using Newspaper for the exact same reason and now I have stopped using news mag because of your most recent update.
you will loose a lot of customers in the future unless you find a workaround as I’m not sure if you are aware instant articles provides publishers with a ‘significant income’
I would hire a developer to fix this work, however, every update you apply will overwrite this work. I’ve used Tagdiv for over three years and never had a problem until you updated newspaper. then i moved to newsmag and now the same has happened with that.
Hello gmtrevor,
Sorry for the inconvenience, but this plugin has never been tested with the theme! Please keep in mind that neither RSS nor FB Instant Articles are not part of our tested plugins, sorry! As you can know, our theme is in a continuous development process and the theme code is changing. Notice that for each update, if you do not want to loose your customizations you should make a full backup or you should use the child theme because the update will overwrite the all theme code.
Thanks for your understanding!
I wrote the solution in this link and this can help you
