Broken since last up date

Hi @eangulus,

Can you be more specific on how the post is broken? Are you receiving an error or is the player just not displaying correctly? I am trying to recreate the circumstances but I am not encountering any errors.

Are you referring to a Post (Posts > Add New) or an Episode (Podcast > Add New)?
What podcast player are you using to embed?

Thanks!

Page Error is:

Happens on ANY page that has a podcast attached, we use the HTML5 Player With Album Art.

Adn we have Posts->add New where we have a written post, with then an embedded player of the matching podcast. Been like this for nearly 2 years.

I enabled debugging and noticed errors between Yoast and SSP. Yoast hadn’t been updated for nearly a month, SSP was recently updated and specifically mentioned changes in regards to Yoast compatibility. The previous version of SSP works perfectly.

At this point, we preferred to have working Podcasts, so have disabled the Yoast Plugin to get things working. Disabling either SSP or Yoast fixes the problem.

@eangulus

Thanks so much, this is very helpful. In the interim, you can use the WP Rollback plugin to rollback SSP to version 2.11 so that you can re-enable Yoast.

We’ll investigate this and try to get a fix pushed out as soon as possible.
