Not importing thumbnail automatically

Hi there,

Thanks for using our plugin!
Basically you can import all images by ticking the box while importing a new podcast.

If the feed itself contains the images and your theme supports thumbnails, it should work as expected.

Please include your podcast RSS feed if you are still having issues with it after trying to import with the images checkbox checked.

I’m having issues importing the thumbnails too. Importing feed from omnyStudio. Initially each episode didn’t have it’s own image, so only the last episode got an image added to wp feature image. So I then added an individual image to each episode, deleted existing podcast completely, then reimported into Omny. No images at all get imported into feature image now.

The other annoying aspect of the plugin is I’m using ‘portfolio’ post type for the Podcasts, however the Portfolio Category is not an option to import into. Only the post categories.

Hey @stellar7,

Thanks for using our plugin and for reaching out.
Can you please share your RSS feed from Omny? I’ll try to import it and see what happens with the images, but there shouldn’t be an issue.

We currently only support the “podcast” post type and the default “post” type, but we’ll look into adding others.

Thanks! Here’s the feed: https://www.omnycontent.com/d/playlist/2596aacb-8d6a-4b53-a7cc-abc1005233a6/33323d6e-6317-4a04-a121-abc800df5cfc/9ffc206c-ddc9-48e4-a7dc-abc800dfd8af/podcast.rss

I’m wondering if it’s because the podcast already exists in the database so it thinks the podcast already exists and is not updating now the image has been added? Because I get a message saying: ‘This podcast is already being scheduled for import. Delete the previous schedule to create a new one’, even though I deleted old podcast import posts from the trash.

Hi @stellar7,

Thanks for sharing the feed.
I see the issue. We’ll need to release a patch for importing the images.

Omny is using the same filename for all images so it’s causing an issue.
We’re trying to import just one file if all files have a similar name, to avoid duplicates.

Should be fixed in the next version, we’re working on adding quite a few more features, so stay tuned!
