Thanks for your kind and helpful response, Angelo. And once again, thanks for your hard work with the PowerPress plugin/service!

Ok, there was htaccess causing the PocketCasts and iTunes subscribing/downloading problems.

The symptom that remains is:

? This podcast feed validator says my SSL cert is fine, but fails the “is it an rss feed” test, and all of the iTunes-related tests: https://podba.se/validate/?url=https://www.practiceportuguese.com/tag/podcast/feed/ . However, this test *is* successful: https://castfeedvalidator.com/?url=https://www.practiceportuguese.com/feed/podcast/

Should this be a concern? Thanks!

Hold off, I’ve made a bit of progress, it may have been an htaccess problem. (Will resolve or follow-up shortly)

i just realized that if I run a url to an mp3 (https://www.practiceportuguese.com/wp-content/podcast/pedro-entrevista-video.mp3) through this redirect checker tool (https://www.redirect-checker.org/index.php), it shows a bunch of redirects. Some security setting on the server?

Thanks! This was a helpful thread. Feature suggestion –?make this target _blank functionality available as a setting or preferably, as a short code parameter ?? Thanks for all your great work on this plugin. On my way to add my rating ??

Hi Ben, thanks for your hint, and once again, thanks for releasing the plugin! Since I was in a panic to get it resolved, I had a wordpress dev look at it.

He found a workaround and it’s up and running again. If you I can help, let me know and I can send more details.

Here is the conversation with the dev explaining the circumstances and the workaround he used to get me back up and running, for what it’s worth ??

Thanks again!

Sorry Jay, I wasn’t aware of that rule, I guess it makes sense. I didn’t mean any mischief, was just very grateful to the developer. Thanks for not closing thread.

Thanks jcow, I didn’t realize there was a new plugin. Excited to test it out. Thanks for your generosity in allowing this to be used for free. Make a premium version so you can take our money! ??

Thanks for your reply Barry. If yourself or any other developers reading this post are interested, I’d be willing to drop some cash for an hour or two of customizations, if it were a relatively easy task.

Did anyone ever find an answer to this one? Thanks ;D

Fair enough ?? Good luck to you with your project(s).

The developer is kind enough to offer us this plugin for free. If I were as generous as him, I wouldn’t appreciate receiving demands… they should read as polite requests at the most.

If anything about his work is “unacceptable”, then of course we can make suggestions, but the reality is that we need to take it or leave it and not feel a sense of entitlement for something we’re not paying for (unless we want to pony up with a donation).

I know sometimes it’s easy to forget how many hours it must take to develop these plugins; the generosity of the developer providing it for free always blows me away… I doubt I could do the same.

If we pay for a premium plugin, then of course we have more entitlement and an expectation for satisfaction, but here it’s not the case.

So now I got that out of my system, thanks Pupunzi for all your hard work.

yahoo! Thanks for the update.

I noticed that you can choose whether to have both the open and close animations or neither.

Ideally, I’d like it to have it open when you click play, but then stay open when you pause it.

Would it be possible to have a check box for open animation and another checkbox for close animation?

Of course, if you don’t think others will enjoy that feature, then I’ll understand if it’s not included just for me ??

Hmm, I just updated it and couldn’t find the feature. I tried to see if it was (Check to activate the opening / closing animation), but when I unchecked it and saved changes, the checkmark just returned after the page refreshed. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

awesome, thanks so much for the great plugin and for adding the feature!
