    Thanks @kjodle – I think there are some good plugins to help facilitate that as well (on the 301s) …

    Shawn,
    Good morning – and thanks for the great support here.
    Thanks for bringing this to my attention – I realized that almost all of the fields in the category-specific feed settings were blank or default, so I optimized and cleaned all that up. I’m confident this will make it work and will report back.

    OK – so nothing is working — still showing the blue default powerpress logo in all my podcast episodes on iTunes. I’ve followed the one suggestion I read from someone else and completely renamed my image file. I’ve refreshed my feed. Still, everything is showing up with the default blue icons. (the main podcast graphic is correct, but the podcast episodes are not). I have the option checked to use the main graphic as my episodes. Any ideas?

    If you go into iTunes and search “Worship Interludes Podcast” you should see it.

    Shawn,
    This is very interesting because you may be onto something. I switched to the Gumbo SecondLine theme, it had several plugins to download, including powerpress, but I was already using PP … but I am convinced something in the mySQL database got jacked up because my character encoding is all jacked up – double spaces (after a period) all look freaky too. My host said the weird characters were actually inside the database, so I dunno if it was the theme that did it, or around the same time, we did a PHP7 upgrade that made our previous WordPress config.php passwords not strong enough – so I had to reset user/Password for the database.

    Anyway – the question is how do I FORCE a refresh to iTunes? I do not set a unique image per episode – I want the main image for hte podcast to be the individual episode artwork . I have that box checked off, but it’s just not forcing through.

    Hey,
    I added that to my functions.php but didn’t work. Go to:
    https://www.theworshipcommunity.com/join-twc/

    So odd because the 2 groupings show up perfectly everywhere else.
    Below is my functions.php:

    <?php
    error_reporting(0);
    
    /**
     * Sets up the theme by loading the SnapThemes class & initializing the framework
     * which activates all classes and functions needed for theme's operation.
     *
     * @package SnapThemes
     * @subpackage Functions
     */
    
    # Load the SnapThemes class.
    require_once( get_template_directory() . '/framework.php' );
    
    # Get theme data.
    # $theme_data = get_theme_data( get_template_directory() . '/style.css' );
    $theme_data = wp_get_theme();
    # Initialize the SnapThemes framework.
    SnapThemes::init(array(
    	'theme_name' => $theme_data->name,
    	'theme_version' => $theme_data->version
    ));
    
    //notifies users of updates
    require(get_template_directory() . '/update-notifier.php');
    
    function myprefix_show_interest_groupings() {
    	?>

    @imazed,
    Sure, see below. What’s odd is that the grouping options actually show up underneath the “comments” section of a post, but not on the “join/register” default page.

    ah, wait, it’s called “Tabbable” now — I figured it out.

    I’m having same issue – what do you mean by “drag the item tab sidebar” into right sidebar widget area — is that another widget that you drag in? I don’t have a widget called “tab sidebar”. The actual “tab sidebar” widget area (where you drag widgets into it) isn’t “draggable”?

    You don’t have permission to access /wp-content/plugins/podpress/podpress_backend.php on this server.

    I have manually verified that the permissions for this file are fully readable, even writable and exectuable … we’ve even tried it with 777 permissions?

    t-p
    That option is NOT checked because I have the other one checked “Comment author must have a previously approved comment”. most of our comments are from returning visitors who have a history commenting on the site, and I don’t want every single comment held in moderation.

    I have the other two options checked above that, though:
    Email me whenever:
    anyone posts a comment (checked)
    a comment is held for moderation (checked)

    These are the same settings I’ve had for a very long time …

    OK – this apparently has NOTHING to do w/ the vbulletin bridge – I’ve totally removed it and uploaded all new install of wordpress …

    This error is happening everywhere – even when users leave comments:

    Warning: call_user_func(twentyten_comment) [function.call-user-func]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback in /home2/twcadmin/public_html/wp-includes/comment-template.php on line 1335

    Warning: call_user_func(twentyten_comment) [function.call-user-func]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback in /home2/twcadmin/public_html/wp-includes/comment-template.php on line 1335

    I’ve googled and searched and I’m finding tons of sites generating this error in the last few days.

    DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS?

    feedburner actually shows the updates very quickly … but the ads never come through into GoogleReader. I’m guessing it’s a Google thing.

    Gotcha – I’ve turned off the GoogleAds, but it didn’t seem to make a difference, so I turned them back on.

    PS: incidentally,
    I’ve subscribed to my RSS in Net News Wire and Apple Mail app, neither of which show the ads either. It seems that they make it to feedburner, and then disappear once picked up there. Maybe Feedburner is removing them?

    Thread Starter fmckinnon

    (@fmckinnon)

    Interesting – yep, it works for me to if I load feeds.feedburner.com/fredmckinnon – but when I view my own feed in Google Reader, it only shows the Google Ads.

    And since I assume most folks will be using Google Reader, I wonder if there’s a way to resolve that?

    Can you try subscribing in Google Reader to see if it works there?
