WordPress no longer automatically creates an enclosure for an MP3 podcast

  • As states the topic title, WordPress no longer automatically creates an enclosure for an MP3 podcast. When I take a look at the RSS feed, I don’t see an enclosure or an MP3 file. I am very confused. This worked fine for the first few posts at https://www.rfidradio.com/, then starting at episode #8, the enclosure was no longer created.

    What changed between episode #7 and #8? I activated the following plugins :
    1- google-sitemap-generator
    2- All in One SEO Pack
    3- UltimateTagWarrior (Fin)

    I thought they might have messed up the enclosure command, so I deactivated them all and posted a test post with only an MP3 link in it. This still did not work.

    Any ideas?

  • I’m having the same exact issue.

    I’m not sure which one did it, but after I activated these two plug-ins….

    1- Breadcrumb Navigation XT
    2- Configurable Tag Cloud

    WordPress simply quick automatically generating my mp3 file enclosures.

    Is there any chance someone can tell us how to fix this?

    PLEASE HELP!!!!

    I solved the issue for me. I found that it WAS NOT A PLUG-IN. It took me forever to recreate this issue on a test site I installed. I added items that are in my site, piece by piece to see if I could duplicate this issue.

    It turns out this started happening as soon as my .htaccess was edited to include the following…

    AuthType Basic
    AuthName “Member Login”
    AuthUserFile /home/content/c/l/i/******/.passwords
    AuthGroupFile /home/content/c/l/i/******/.groups

    require valid-user
    #require group 1

    If I remove that code, my automatic enclosures start working again. Now to see if I can find a solution to this as I still want my feed password protected!
