    Hello,
    I host mp3 files on backblaze.
    It worked fine with Seriously Simple Podcasting and URLS given by blackblaze.

    I just noticed creating a new serie of Podcast that the connection with blackblaze files are lost. Not only for new podcasts but also for the previous.
    The problems are that the file is not played in the SSP player and a 404 not found page come when trying to play in a new window or download.
    I did some plugin updates and maybe I did not paid attention that a new version cause trouble, I don’t know which one.

    I don’t think the problem come from blackblaze because if I use a sound block with the same URL it work ok.

    Thanks for helping.
    Best.

    Hi @canayou,

    I see that your server is running Nginx and the issue may be related to the pass-through URLs that our plugin uses to track statistics (if using Seriously Simple Stats).

    You may need to add a bypass rule for the podcast-download and podcast-player URLs to your site’s config.

    Please add this to NGINX Before Rule

    #Seriously Simple Podcasting

rewrite podcast-download/([^/]+)/([^/]*)/? /index.php?podcast_episode=$1 break;

rewrite podcast-player/([^/]+)/([^/]*)/? /index.php?podcast_episode=$1&podcast_ref=player break;

    If you cannot do this, your web host should be able to.

    Alternatively, if you don’t use Seriously Simple Stats for tracking listens, you could disable the pass-through URLs by pasting the following filter in your functions.php file. Using the raw audio file instead of a custom rewrite.

    Please create and save a new backup of your site before making any customizations.
