Hi everyone,
Just installed Serendipity and am looking to import one of our existing podcast feeds.
The problem is when I try to add my podcast feed, it doesn't show up!
I know it is reading the file as it is in serendipity's "cache" folder...
Is there something I need to configure in order for it to show up?
Thanks for anybody's assistance in advance!
RSS Aggregator and iTunes Podcast feed?
Okay instead of using the "RSS Aggregator" plugin to import my podcast rss feed, I used "Import Data" under the Administration menu and selected "Generic RSS import".
This successfully imported the contents of my podcast rss feed, but it didn't include the <enclosure> MP3 contents.
I have the Easy Podcasting Plugin installed so shouldn't it detect the enclosure tag?

Hi!
Yes, neither the RSS aggregator nor the RSS import support enclosures currently. Someone would need to add that.
The podcast plugin can only detect what is stored in an entry, but if nothing imports the enclosure, there's nothing to detect. It might work if you can get an RSS feed where a link to the enclosed element is also contained.
There are still some RSS-Readers that do not support enclosures, so your feed should offer a download link so that those readers are able to play the enclosure, right?
Regards,
Garvin

Hi Garvin,
I want to apologize for making multiple posts about my topic!
I guess I wanted to get a quick answer!
Anyway, what I did in the interim was edit my existing entries and added a link to the MP3 file like you suggested.
I was just wondering if the "RSS Aggregator" plugin is able to just import the contents of the <description> tag from a feedburner podcast feed.
This will keep me from manually using the "Import data" function to import my podcast feed everytime.
Thanks! (and once again apologies for making multiple posts!)

Hi!
Okay, I can import the XML Feed at http://www.tradingpostfinancial.com/Med ... odcast.xml just fine!
Check the configuration of your RSS Aggregator plugin what you entered as the date threshold. Also enable the Debugging output. Then if you call the RSS Aggregator URL, you should see output lie:
So in my case, nothing is imported because the age of those articles is higher than what I configured in the plugin ( 2days max age).
