Description

@hikatamika

Describe the bug
Fluent Reader cannot import RSS Feeds from any RSS reader that allows you to store RSS feeds in subfolders/sub categories.
IE: Folder 1 > Folder 2 > RSS Feed

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Have an OPML Feed with outline structured like this:
<opml version="1.0" xmlns:fz="urn:forumzilla:">
  <head>
    <title>Thunderbird OPML Export - RSS</title>
    <dateCreated>Mon, 25 Aug 2025 02:31:23 GMT</dateCreated>
  </head>
  <body>
    <outline title="Art">
      <outline title="zone θ">
        <outline type="rss" title="zone θ" text="zone θ" version="RSS" fz:quickMode="false" fz:options="{&quot;version&quot;:2,&quot;updates&quot;:{&quot;enabled&quot;:true,&quot;updateMinutes&quot;:100,&quot;updateUnits&quot;:&quot;min&quot;,&quot;lastUpdateTime&quot;:1756085101744,&quot;lastDownloadTime&quot;:1755368567219,&quot;updatePeriod&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;updateFrequency&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;updateBase&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;category&quot;:{&quot;enabled&quot;:false,&quot;prefixEnabled&quot;:false,&quot;prefix&quot;:&quot;&quot;}}" xmlUrl="https://radicallymaxton.tumblr.com/rss" htmlUrl="https://radicallymaxton.tumblr.com/"/></outline>
  </body>
</opml>
  1. Have Fluent Reader try to import feeds from the OPML.
  2. But because they're double-nested, they can't be found.

Expected behavior
Whether the RSS feed is 3rd level, 2nd level, or 1st level, Fluent Reader can find them.

Platform (please complete the following information):
