Episode summary suddenly disappeared in RSS feed

I found the problem: In your function ssp_get_the_feed_item_content you are using the parse_blocks function and then building up the feed summary. But I am not using the Gutenberg Blocks. I now manually added the following quick-and-dirty lines of code in your file php/includes/ssp-functions.php:

function ssp_get_the_feed_item_content() {
    $content = get_the_content();
    $blocks  = parse_blocks( $content );
    // new line:
    $is_gutenberg_page = ( ! empty( $blocks ) && '' !== $blocks[0]['blockName'] );
    // changed following if clause:
    // old: if ( $blocks and is_array( $blocks ) ) {
    // new:
    if ( !$is_gutenberg_page ) {
    […]

I would be really happy if you could consider checking if Blocks are enabled or not in order to get the summary back into the feed.

Thanks in advance!

I’m having this same problem with episode descriptions disappearing. It started right after I updated to the latest version of the plugin on July 30.

I used Christian’s code (thanks Christian!) and it fixed the issue, but it would be nice to not have to manually fix this after installing future updates.

My feed is: https://warehouse11.creocreative.com/feed/podcast

Christian’s fix worked. Update this please.
