Pre-populate audio file link

    Hello.
    Wonderful plugin!

    We are pulling a RSS feed into WordPress and assigning it to the custom post type created by SSP. We have a filter running to return the URL of the MP3 for each item in the RSS feed. We’ve successfully populated the custom fields (cf_ audio_file and cf_enclosure) on post during import, but these posts do not end up in the new feed created by SSP and are missing info (life cf_filesize).

    How can we populate the audio file URL when the post is being created?

    This not working:

    add_filter( 'autoblog_post_content_before_import', 'customize_post', 99, 3 );
function customize_post( $content, $details, $item ) {
	$file = $item->get_id();
	$episode = $post;
	return apply_filters( 'ssp_episode_from_file', $episode, $file );
}

    This returns the correct URL from the imported field that we then need to populate as the Audio File:

    add_filter( 'autoblog_post_content_before_import', 'customize_post', 99, 3 );
function customize_post( $content, $details, $item ) {
	$file = $item->get_id();
	return $file;
}

    Thanks

    The custom field where the audio file is stored is audio_file – you seem to be using cf_audio_file, which is incorrect.

    To get the audio file size and duration you can use the $ss_podcasting->get_file_size() and $ss_podcasting->get_file_duration() functions and process the result from that. Note, however, that they will only work for files hosted on the same server as your website. For other files you will need to enter the file size, etc. in manually.

    Hope that helps clarify things for you!

    Cheers,
    Hugh

    Wonderful! Thank you.
    Populating the audio_file field worked. We are in business.
