I think there might be something we’re both missing here. I’ve given you the link to the post edit screen several times now. This is the link that comes up when I use this plugin, it shows a link is broken, and offers me an Edit link: https://sample.edu/blog/i-team/resource-library-landing-page/?blink=_wp_link_placeholder

When I click that link, it comes up as “

“Not Found

The requested URL /wp-admin/post.php was not found on this server.”

What is the specific information that’s missing from what I’ve shared?

No, sorry, the Edit link brings up a message: “Not Found: The requested URL /wp-admin/post.php was not found on this server.”

So, a URL where a broken link is currently being found is here: https://sample.edu/blog/i-team/resource-library-landing-page/?blink=_wp_link_placeholder

Yep! My edit URL looks like that almost exactly: https://multisitedomain.edu/wp-admin/post.php?post=4061&action=edit

At first I thought the issue might be that I’m running this plugin on a multi-site installation, but the other single standalone site I’m trying to run this plugin with produces the same error, and has the same URL configuration: https://singledomain.uvm.edu/wp-admin/post.php?post=15909&action=edit

And yet, not having heard from your support team for more than two weeks on my issue with these plugins, it seems incredibly dishonest to keep marking this issue as resolved.

Thank you for that explanation of your system. As an end-user of your plugin, this system does not work well for me.

Good morning, I see that you’ve now twice marked this issue as resolved. It has not been resolved, and my support ticket remains open and an issue.

Thank you, @nitushrestha10! That’s solved it. Much appreciation for the speedy response!

Thank you. This is exactly the answer I was looking for.

Howdy, I’m back. Our feeds are broken again after running the latest WordPress engine update. I have checked the option not to allow other themes to modify the podcast feed, but Castfeed Validator returns “XML error: Reserved XML Name at line 3, column 39”.

What could have added this error, if I have the option allowing themes to modify the feed blocked? What are the steps I should take to solve this and prevent it from recurring?

Thank you!

Thank you very much for this. It looks like the issue has been resolved by checking the option not to allow other themes to modify the podcast feed. Totally resolved.

The theme we’re using is “Gridlove”

Thanks again.

The app in the screenshot is Podcast Addict. I contacted their support team and from there learned that the app considers our podcast RSS feed broken. Additionally, new episodes weren’t getting pushed out to iTunes.

I’ve switched the RSS feed to our soundcloud one for the moment, and both Podcast Addict and iTunes indicate that it’s valid, so now I’m just trying to troubleshoot what the issue is with the original feed.

Thanks for the speedy response! https://tiie.w3.uvm.edu/blog/feed/podcast is indeed the feed I’m trying to troubleshoot.

I’m getting error messages from the W3C validator (https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftiie.w3.uvm.edu%2Fblog%2Ffeed%2Fpodcast%2F) Specifically:

“This feed does not validate.

In addition, interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendations.

I'm also getting error messages from iTunes and Podcast Addict (https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ryCxi_21YWo/XC-9J_TdnhI/AAAAAAABE4U/tXrakJVXE285NjtZYYNyj91yQ6KDGvMmACL0BGAYYCw/h1920/218147622477356836%253Faccount_id%253D1).

I had a similar issue with this plugin, and it turned out to be a conflict with a different plugin, namely User Role Editor. Are you using that plugin in addition to Co-Authors Plus?

That’s solved it perfectly. Thanks very much for the speedy response!
