I updated to ff8, my "live bookmark feed failed to load" now. It was working perfectly fine when I had ff7. Is it a bug in ff8? Should I revert back to ff7?

Try to remove the current Latest Headlines feed or the feed that gives the problem and create a new feed by visiting the feed location of that feed.

Thanks for the reply, I have tried both suggestions, it still shows: "live bookmark feed failed to load" on all feeds (I have over 30 feeds).

There were no issues before with ff7.
