Thanks Hugh,

I also notice now that a new episode isn’t showing up in iTunes, although it is in my Feed, but as you stated it can take a while after a title change, so I’ll just keep my eye on it ..

As far as artwork goes, it doesn’t matter if Album Artwork is added to each mp3 file does it ? Does that make any difference at all ?

Thanks again for the great plugin ..

Okay, changing the Title in Podcast Settings has worked, as now the Title has changed accordingly in iTunes.

The only hiccup I’ve noticed thus far is that the Artwork isn’t showing up now for the subscribed episodes loaded into my iTunes Library, although it was visible before.

So I don’t know if it’s related, otherwise I would consider this matter resolved … ?

Well, I answered my own question when re-reading the Documentation and realizing that apparently the mp3 has to be uploaded through the Podcast plugin’s uploader which uses the WP Media Player in order to appear in the RSS, which was also confirmed when my podcast feed failed the iTunes validation because “No episodes exist in your feed.”

So I have no option but to de-activate my favorite mp3 player plugin to get this podcast to work, which kinda blows. I hope some good options now exist for customizing that native WP media player.

Thanks for all your help !

I didn’t actually need to do the reset options you suggested, because after examining more closely it turned out the ‘core” file for the Download Manager plugin [referenced in the 1st Warning] wasn’t appearing on the server via FTP even after multiple attempts and different FTP programs. It wasn’t until I used the Hosting Accnt’s File Manager to place it that the problem was resolved.

Hmmm … looks like I’ve hit a snag.

When trying to log back in, it looks like a Plugin is interfering, because I get these Warning messages, and I can’t log in ..

Warning: include(wpdm-core.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /yadda/yadda/html/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/download-manager.php on line 102

etc .. etc ..

I replaced the download-manager.php with a backup, in fact replaced the whole plugin folder with a backup, but no change, and there’s not anything on ‘Line 102’ of that file, so now I’m not sure what to do.

Thanks for your help James, this seems fairly straightforward.

As for the index.php, the original one is in the sub-directory with all the original core files, so I’m assuming I can just move all the contents of that folder into the Root, after changing the WordPress/Site URL’s in Admin/Settings/General ..

The modified index.php and the htaccess file currently in the Root will be overwritten (although I’ve backed them up).

The only real issue I’m bracing for will be the broken links for the uploaded images, but I will try using the plugin Better Search Replace as referenced in the article … unless there’s a more recommended/preferred one.

Have you tried emailing [email protected] ?

I managed to get a reply from support which I guess I wasn’t expecting, apparently their licensing site was down for a few hours, exactly the period when I my Plugin stopped and their website disappeared … weird.

Anyway, problem resolved .. it is legit with support intact !

Guess I should have searched it myself first, but thanks for this, appreciate it !!
