I am using the latest version of NNW on iOS 17.4.1. I cannot add the following feed:

https://iopscience.iop.org/journal/rss/0031-9120

When I try I get an error message saying "The feed couldn't be found and can't be added." I have used this feed before and I have no idea what has changed.

Can you try to add it twice in quick succession? I got a really strange response on my first attempt but it worked fine on the second attempt...

Doesn't work for me. I also can't add it to the desktop NNW running on my MBP. Very odd. FWIW I also can't add it to the other RSS reader I use. UPDATE: News Explorer accepts the URL now whereas it didn't earlier. I don't know what's going on.

The feed is redirecting to a Radware Bot Manager Captcha. Obviously, NNW can't parse the captcha page as a feed.

@brentsimmons I'm not sure what can be done about that other than asking the website owner to whitelist the NNW user agent??

The same thing periodically happens to me for that and other IOP sites. I was afraid it was just my IP address that was affected. I guess there's nothing that can be done on this end. It's almost like they don't want anyone to use their RSS feeds.
