Testing Podpress

Ok, now a test with Podpress version 8.2.

As I include podcasts at least twice a week on the main blog, I want to be sure the latest verison of Podpress works and doesn’t do bad things liike mess up the RSS feed as my experience with version 7.7 indicated.

In this test, I have not fully set up Podpress on this sandbox blog, ie, no iTunes settings. Just want to see if this version of the plugin works well.

So here’s a test podcast.

[Edit] Hmm, the podcast’s there but it says ‘error opening file’ when I click on play. Troubleshoot.

[Edit] According to a thread in the Podpress support forum, this is probably a bug. Suggested workaround is disable stats. Tried that, doesn’t work. Very disappointing. I find Podpress unreliable except for old version 6.8, which is what I’m still using on the main blog. I think I’ll try that version here, although not sure if it works under WP 2.2.2.

[Edit] Fixed. Removed version 8.2, installed version 6.8 - and it now works.
