I go to their validator site, https://podba.se/validate/?url=https://nu-wine.org/wordpress/feed/mp3/
Run my feed and,
Your channel is missing an?itunes:explicit?element.
However, the element is actually there!?
<itunes:explicit>no</itunes:explicit>
]]>The line is
xmlns:itunes="https://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd"We have it already as part of our main podcast feed. And whenever we activate Rank Math Pro, a duplicate of said line is added, which breaks the feed (people can’t listen to us).
Where in the settings can I undo this?
Right now it’s turned off. But when I turn it on, this will happen:

<itunes:episodeType>.I’ve confirmed all of this is (still) true with the current, 10.0.7 build of Powerpress.
1. Trailer bug: If there is no episode marked as Trailer (in
Episode Description > See More Settings > Type > Trailer), then the most recent episode marked as “Full Episode” in the same place becomes set as <podcast:trailer>.Definitely related is number 2 here, which has been an issue for a LONG time:
2. The “full episode” inconsistency bug: The only way to get
<itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType> to appear in the <item> section for a show’s feed is to set the Type to “Full Episode”. Leaving it at “Full (default)” omits ANY <itunes:episodeType> tag from appearing for that <item>. This is a huge issue, of course, because Apple subscriptions matches the RSS feed on the
<itunes:episodeType> tag along with <itunes:episode> and, if it exists, <itunes:season>. But I can 100% confirm that if <itunes:episodeType> is missing, then Apple Subscriptions will NOT match and will, instead, post a duplicate episode to subscribers’ feeds. Because of that, I have to manually set every episode to Type: Full Episode in order to get that
<itunes:episodeType> tag to appear and, then, because of the first bug I mentioned, PowerPress (now) makes that episode the trailer, too.Hopefully this is enough detail for y’all to replicate and resolve, but obviously please feel free to reach out if not. Thanks! ]]>
in our community site we will insert social lins – that works perfect with the Social Icons widget block. But I’m missing the itunes icon for a link to our itunes podcast.
How can I insert a new icon to the Social Icons block?

Is it possible for Spotify to pick up our RSS or is podcasting exclusively with itunes?
]]>I have some problems with the language tag in my RSSfeed and Apple Podcast.
Though I have the language tag used (<language>de-DE</language>) Apple Podcast doesn’t accept that and my Podcast isn’t accepted into Itunes. I dont know what to do and it seems that nobody has this problem too. Can you help me?

I am wondering how to manage the general settings so that the subtitle of my podcast is visible to listeners on iTunes. Currently my podcast only shows the title but the description that would help listeners to better discern what the podcast is about is missing. I have already added a subtitle under settings “subtitle” but still no subtitle is showing on iTunes. Any idea how I can fix this?
Greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Peri
Though we are now looking something with a slightly more professional look, this is a great solution for those just getting started and who might be less familiar with WP themes. Highly recommend it.

]]>The PowerPress plugin makes all that easy. PowerPress is published for free by Blubrry, a podcast hosting service. PowerPress will work with any podcast host, but since you have to pay for hosting anyway, I chose Blubrry to make life easy. WordPress is complicated enough, this one was easy.
Great tech support. Happy user.
