  Hi @chatdragon2641, did you create a new Anchor account? That’s the root of most issues I’ve seen. Unfortunately this feature does not support previously-existing accounts yet.

  If you already did that, and you got to the Anchor dashboard but the podcast still didn’t work, can you reach out directly to their support?

  No unfortunately I made my anchor account before I made my WordPress website, but I did make my WordPress site using the link that was on the Anchor site. Not sure if that makes a difference.

  Yes, this is not why it’s not working. As @supernovia said existing Anchor accounts cannot be linked manually at this time. So, please contact Anchor’s support at https://help.anchor.fm/hc/en-us and see if they can help you resolve this.
