For those poor souls that are searching the forums (and have a wp.com blog), and have found this thread, the best way I found to do it (on wp.com), is to make a category for your podcast, and wp.com (all bet are off for stock wordpress software) will create an RSS feed dedicated to your podcast.

(I'm only posting here for archival purposes, I'm sorry if that's deemed inappropriate).

Hi,

We have a regular blog that we post regular blog postings to. Recently, we started podcasting as well. My question is, is there a way to post something in WordPress as both as a blog article and podcast content? Then the content would simultaneously show up in the regular blog RSS feed (for blog readers, and they can click on a web link and listen to the podcast within the blog webpage without subscribing), as well as a seperate feed for the podcast (which would be sent to itunes, etc).

And for regular blog articles that are not podcasts, they would only be added to the regular blog RSS feed.

We have installed Podpress but I have no idea what the next step is. Help!

Thanks,
Stephanie

That is not a WordPress.COM blog, and you need to be over at WordPress.ORG. Our answers will not apply to you because our software is different:

Hi, I'm using WordPress on a hosted Linux account on http://www.fromthedeskofdomains.com

When I try and install Podpress 8.8 it won't let me write new pages or posts, and IE closes with an error message. The help desk at fromthedeskofdomains tell me that Podpress 8.8 isn't compatible with WordPress anymore. Is there a way to fix this? WordPress isn't going to be as useful as I thought if I can't video blog. Are there any other plug-ins that will provide the same function as Podpress? thanks, Brian

Filezilla is an FTP client and we don't give users FTP access to their blogs here at WordPress.com.

jinesdrywall on "uploading podpress problem"

jinesdrywall — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 13:26:16 +0000

This must be a wordpress problem because the podomatic player is working for other people. This is strange. VodPod works fine, I can upload audio files to the wordpress audio player, but no podomatic player, and no can connect to the server with filezilla to install podpress.

jinesdrywall on "uploading podpress problem"

jinesdrywall — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 12:02:49 +0000

For some reason my filezilla will not connect to the server. Also the embedded player from podomatic will not connect. I was able to load a audio file to the wordpress player with no problem, but I want to podcast! What could be the problem? I put my address, user name and password but no go. Do I need to have wordpress installed on my computer?

Hi, we can't use plugins here. If your blog is self hosted -- and it sounds as if it is -- you can get help at wordpress.org/support.

roflman79 on "Podcast RSS2 Importer Doesn't Work"

roflman79 — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 18:45:23 +0000

I have a podcast on Podomatic and am using WordPress with Podpress installed. WordPress has the inbuilt "Podcast RSS2" import feature in Manage > Import but when i click it i am confronted by "Cannot load importer."

The browser is redirected to /wp-admin/admin.php?import=podcast

I can't find anything about this anywhere, Podpress producers say it is an inbuilt feature within WordPress and nothing that is installed with the Plugin.

Anyone had the same problem?

Unless there is new information in the FAQ regarding Podpress, it won't be supported. I'm assuming you've tried a forum search for the term. Usually if it's become supported, it'll show up in the FAQ search results on top.

I would like to podcast programs, I have been reading at the different messages about Podpress but most of them are from last year, please could you confirm that Podpress is not supported in WordPress.com?

Do I need to open an account in WordPress.org?

Thanks,

María

If you are self-hosted, and it sounds like you are, you need to be asking your question over at http://wordpress.org/support. We use a different, multi-user version of wordpress over here.

I installed Podpress 8.2 and the "add media" button doesn't work at all. I am running Firefox and WordPress 2.2. I've tried using Safari and Camino and they both don't work. Everything else seems to be okay with the plugin.

raincoaster — Sun, 08 Jul 2007 22:21:11 +0000

Do you have a blog hosted here at WordPress.com? I'm asking becasue we have no podpress stats on our dashboard. I'm thinking you need to be over at WordPress.org.

startupstudio on "On podpress stats -- what does 'web' track?"

startupstudio — Sun, 08 Jul 2007 22:20:28 +0000

On the dashboard, there are four stats displayed about podpress: feed, web, play and total

I know 'feed' tracks downloads/plays from the feed and 'play' tracks downloads/plays when someone is on your website. What does 'web' track and how is it different? Is there any double counting between web and feed or play?

thanks!

Please remmeber that the software that powers wp.com is not the same software that powers aj.com. The two versions of WordPress are different and that's probably why you're running into issues.

Dr. Mike,

Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, I did a search for the company and called Jeremy. He was not in, but I left a message on his voice mail.

Since he was not in, I tried to install the system on a server from Darn Good Solutions, http://www.dgs2.net. (They provide a tremendous amount of bandwith, and the cost is $12.95/month.)

Initially WordPress did not register properly. When I called their Customer Support (good service and 24/7) they said they did not see anything wrong with my installation, but if I uninstalled it, and used a feature in their control panel, I could install it.

I uninstalled my version, rebooted to clear out any miscellaneous .dll tendrils and reinstalled from the Value Applications of the control panel (26 apps, mostly PHP.)

Then, I downloaded the newly-installed files into my local Dreamweaver site.

Finally, I followed the instructions for installing PodPress by placing the files into my local directories, and then uploading them. (See http://www.mightyseek.com/podpress/)

This sounds like a lot, but in less than ten minutes, I had the entire installation up and running. Simple!

I still have a lot to learn about using PodPress, and I have yet to get it to run off of http://moam.wordpress.com/, but I'm very encouraged because everything seems to be on track to using it on http://alanjordan.com/wordpress/.

drmike on "Podpress Plug-in"

drmike — Thu, 17 Aug 2006 22:35:56 +0000

Best bet would be to contact Jeremy for the method that he uses. He hasn't been in these forums for what looks like three months now.

Either that or do a search for podcast as we've discussed this many times in the past.

Hello Jeremy,

I looked at http://inlandpress.wordpress.com, and saw that you have some test podcasts up and running.

Can you tell me if you did this through podpress, and if so, what procedure you followed.

Thanks,
Alan Jordan

Whilst it will certainly work for a self hosted blog, it's not possible to use it here at wordpress.com

We aren't allowed to install our own plugins unfortunately. :(

Hi. I have found one Icelandic wordpress blog using podpress - so it is possible.
Take a look at
http://www.krukkan.net/

Also look at

http://www.mightyseek.com/podpress/

Here you can get info about podpress, e.g. the installation of it:

"Installation

If you have ever installed a pluggin, then this will be pretty easy.

Extract the files. podpress directory into
wp-content/plugins/
If your using WordPress 1.5, then you will need to use the replacement wp-rss2.php file that is provided. Look in the podpress/WP1.5_users/ directory
Login to the Site Admin and go to Plugins and active podPress
Then it can be configured from the Options menu. The config should be
pretty straight forward, and it even has a preview of what your podcast
would look like on iTunes."

The problem in my case is that I have never installed a pug-in and don't
know how it is done. Where is "wp-content/plugins/" to be found? Do I have
to download WordPress to my site in order to make it work with sounds/podpress?
I am interested in using podpress in a blog I am preparing so I have written
to this Icelandic guy who keeps krukkan.net. I'll let you know when/if I get
an answer - but you might know more about blog plug-ins than I do. In that case
I'd appreciate a word or two about how to do this.

Greetings from Iceland, Stefan.
