  I’m trying to publish a podcast on iTunes and have successfully followed all the steps at http://en.support.wordpress.com/audio/podcasting/.

  When I get to “Test your Feed,” the test fails. A third party validator tells me, “Sorry – This feed does not validate,” then it lists all the mistakes.

  My question is, “How do I fix the mistakes? Can WordPress handle that for me as part of my Premium account? Can they at least assist me in solving the problem?” Thank you.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi,

  When adding the postcast feed to itunes it looks like you need to add /feed/ to the URL, as itunes can’t detect it correctly.
  For example: http://nonduality.org/category/itunes/feed/

  Additionally, I don’t know if it was related to the problem you were having, but I just fixed a few issues in our podcast feed parsing, can you try again and see if it works now?

  What was the Feed Validator that you were using as well? Just so I can check what warnings that one is generating?
