Wordpress fsockopen () error

Update on fsockopen () error problem.

Over the weekend I lost access to RSS feeds and was getting an fsockopen () error on the pages where the RSS feeds were supposed to be. Had a look on the internet for a solution but with no luck. What I did find out though was that it is a very common problem, that can be easily fixed, but no one bothers to let anyone know what they did to stop the error from happening.

First a little background to my own problem just incase it looks like it may be what you are looking for. Last week I installed a Wordpress plugin by Bill Rawlinson called RSS Fetched Link List so that I could import RSS feeds into my Web bBog. That went nice and smooth, easy as 1-2-3.

Problem for me started a couple of days later when the Server that hosts my Blog sput the dummy over code that is in the Posts I use to place the RSS feeds onto my website. The Server shut out my Blog RSS feeds because it thought the Posts were from hackers trying to hack into the Server. By the way, this is all done automatically by the Server. So to make a long story short, I notified the Server operators of my problem and they made a few simple adjustments to the Server security system and… bingo!!! Everything now works perfect.

This may not be the answer to every fsockopen () error, but it was mine. Hope I have been of help.
