After I started running my mautic installation on a secure site I started getting XML errors when I log in. The logging in is OK but the dashboard displays a list of errors where the charts are supposed to be. If I simply refresh the page the errors go away and the dashboard appears as it is supposed to. This happens every time I log in.  
  
  
  
I have cleared the browser and mautic cache with no effect. My only hope is that the only thing effected is the dashboard.  
  
Here are the errors I am getting, I hope someone can point me in the right direction.  
  
  
  
**On the dashboard**

User error.

If anybody else runs into this issue you should check that you did not modify the wrong line in your local.php config file.  
‘rss\_notification\_url’ =\> ‘[https://mautic.com/?feed=rss2&tag=notification](https://mautic.com/?feed=rss2&tag=notification)’,  
I inadvertently changed this URL and the XML Errors were coming because of this.
