    Aidan, I’m sorry that all of those articles and discussion pages doesn’t help your concern. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration that this caused you.

    This issue is really unrelated to iTunes Store but it is to WordPress. The WordPress is the one who can really address this concern.

    In Apple’s part, even if it is not related to us, we are doing our best and utilizing our resources to help you with this issue. We want you to feel that we care for every customer’s concern here in Apple thus, giving every need to them.

    In this case, I would suggest you to contact WordPress about this issue and please update Apple on what will happen after that. Please feel free to email us again as we want to make sure that this issue has been resolved to your complete satisfaction.

    I look forward to your reply. Have a great day!

    Re: My podcast feeds just won’t work!أ¾created by Roger Wilmut1 in Producing Podcasts – View the full discussionhttp://thisweekinforex.com/blog/?feed=rss2 This feed cannot be subscribed to in iTunes – it cannot see the file, though I can open it in FireFox. Possibly it’s falling over the PHP scripting. The URL for the media file in your later episode is http://thisweekinforex.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/C:UsersAidanDownloads This obviously is not a valid URL. The earlier episode still has a YouTube URL. http://thisweekinforex.com/blog/?feed=podcast This feed is in the same state I described before – no contents, and has ‘File not found’ in the title, suggesting that the PHP is attempting to cover the fact that there is no file present (I’m guessing here). Obviously something is falling over in WordPress, but that’s outside by experience and I’m afraid I can’t advise on it.Did this help?
