error import OPML

[amigo421]

latest stable vscode

1. exported OPML from inoreader
2. tried to import into the extension
3. got "bad OPML format" (other RSS readers could import this without issues)

[amigo421]

to avoid a lot of requests, just one issue with the extension for me:
two machines: comp1 and comp2

1. added 10+ feeds locally on comp1
2. the feeds were sycned on comp2 via settings and github account
3. comp2 shows me news well, but comp1 does no, something happened with extension
4. comp1: feeds in settings sync and equal to comp2 (where it works)
5. extension doesn't work on comp1 even to add one more feed: I'm clicking on "+" - add an account and nothing happens , other extension buttons don't work too

any idea how to reset extension?

That sounds weird. I tried these steps and there no such problem. Does the problem still exist after restarting vscode? If so, click Help -> Toggle Developer Tools and check if has any errors. If you want to reset the extension, uninstall the extension, reload vscode, and then re-install the extension.

I suppose that we should also check config.json. Could you show me snippets of config.json about rss.*?

Hi
thank you for the response.

1. of course, I've already tried to uninstall and restart and tried one more time for sure. it doesn't help: still no any effect on RSS ext buttons clicking
2. I'm not vscode coder and not sure what do you mean "config.json" , probably settings.json? if no - please let me know where I can look for config.json
3. The same for dev mode, I can open this but could not find where logs can be there... please specify.

regarding initial question about OPML - if you can't reproduce please let me know , I can share my OPML , nothing confidential just a few C++ dev channels

Update : seems solved - found the folder: C:\Users<USER>\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\globalStorage and your extension subfolder contained 6 subfolders. deleted all this and restarted vscode. now seems it works - "default" account is now existing and buttons do work . thank you for the tips!

Oh, sorry, I mean settings.json. But anyway I want to know why it doesn't work. Could you show me the content in settings.json? Besides, if the 6 subfolders are still in your Recycle Bin, I want to know their name.

Of course, It's a bug that should be resolved. It would be better if you can share the OPML.

thank you , let me collect folder names, actually I could restore and share those for you?

sent OPML to your email from profile

one more question: this rss source is not resolved by the extension: http://scrutator.me/syndication.axd
