Problem downloading RSS feed
Hello, I use Opera Mail to manage my RSS feeds without any problems until last week. My RSS don't update now and I don't receive anything. I try to add new feeds, nothing changes either.Have an idea to solve this problem?
Cordially
sorry if there are mistakes, my English is not great
Welcome to the My Opera community!
First, goto "Menu -> settings -> import and export -> export feed list". Then, import it into a standalone installation. Then, right-click on each feed in that install and goto properties to set the update interval to what you want.
Confirm that it works in the standalone installation first. If it does, then something is just wrong with your Opera profile.
You can close down Opera and delete the "cache", opcache and temporary_download folders. They're in Opera Local Directory.
Other things you can do are to go in the properties of each feed and make sure the address to the feed page is still correct (go to the site's feed page and make sure it's still being updated and that the URL to the page hasn't changed on the site).
Besides that, you can export your feed list, delete all your feeds in Opera and then import the feed list again and adjust their update intervals. You'll lose already-fetched feed messages that are no longer on the feed page, but that might fix it.
If that doesn't help and all you use in Opera Mail is feeds, you can export your feed list, close down Opera and delete the mail folder and then import your feed list back in and adjust their settings. That should definitely fix it.
Note that the feeds export just exports the subscription list, not messages. Opera doesn't support import feed messages anyway.

Hello and sorry for the delay.
I had already tried the first indications but by totally eliminating the mail folder and reimporting feeds it works again.
Thank you

You can ask in the mac forum for that.
