I just noticed that all my Google News feeds have been failing with "Operation failed. Unable to retrieve full-text content" (sample log below). Is this a known issue that's been addressed in the latest version of CyberSEO Pro? I'm currently using v11.130 and haven't updated yet because that's a big expense for my not-for-profit websites. Thanks in advance.

The plugin can import articles from Google News only using feeds in the following format:

Both RSS and web link formats are supported by the plugin. In addition, the link can contain language and regional parameters, e.g:

Sorry I should've mentioned that I'm using a custom proxy to pre-filter articles by title, but I also tested with the base Google News URL as in your examples and in the log below. So is this a known issue that's been addressed in the latest version of CyberSEO Pro? As I mentioned above I'm currently on v11.130.

According to the log, Google has blocked your IP address due to frequent requests. It seems you exceeded their limits when you tried to syndicate articles from the previous feed. The only options are to wait until Google unblocks your host or to use a proxy: https://www.cyberseo.net/general-settings/#proxy-list

Your feed itself is ok:
