So, twice now this has happened to me - the first time I thought it was because I hadn't made the change to the aggregator module when I updated it - but now it has happened again.

A little background:
I have a feed provided from the University located here (http://www.uab.edu/styles/5.0/xml/uab-quicklinks.xml) that I use for a block on my site.
I had to edit the aggregator.admin.inc file because the feed has 21 items and I need all 21 of those showing in the block. So I changed line 93:
'#options' => drupal_map_assoc(array(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)),
to
'#options' => drupal_map_assoc(array(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)),

So what has happened is that the feed goes from 21 items, to 0 items. The first time happened right after I updated Core and didn't make my change in the Aggregator module, the 2nd time there was no Core update so that can't be the issue.

The feed will repopulate the 21 items if I delete and recreate the feed using the same URL, so the feed also can't be the issue.

Attempting to manually update the feed does nothing.

I have the feed on a few different sites (a few for example):
www.soph.uab.edu
www.soph.uab.edu/cares
www.soph.uab.edu/fieldplacements
www.soph.uab.edu/itg

Under a multi-site installation so they all use the same aggregator module. The first 3 sites have all stopped showing the feed and items. The 4th site (/itg) still shows the feed and items working and it ran Cron and updated after some of the other sites ran theirs.

Any ideas on what could be causing this or how to fix it?

Thanks.

I'm not entirely sure why this works - but if I click Remove Items - on the 0 items that are there, and the last checked/updated both become never, then I click update items, it works and updates the items correctly.
