Podcasting with WordPress

    I just started blogging and would like to add podcast to my blog. I need to know the A-Z steps in this process. I have an audio file in FeedBurner and another one in OurMedia but I cannot determine the URL for these feeds to link them to my blog. Detailed instructions would be greatly appreciated.

    The blog I need help with is jhclearenglish.wordpress.com.

    I'm sorry but we have precious little information on podcasting > http://en.forums.wordpress.com/tags/podcasting

    Don't use the URL of the feed; use the URL of the actual uploaded podcast, and put it in an Audio player.

    Sweden´s most famous comedians, Fredrik and Filip, did release their new site this week. They have a really nice and smart working podcast-player with several nice features. One of them is the ability of posting links on different places at the timeline of each episode. Can anyone tell how to create something alike, or if there is any good plugin with the same features? Filip and Fredrik´s site

    or if there is any good plugin with the same features?

    The site you point to is not a free hosted WordPress.com blog. There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and we cannot install individual plugins into them. Those found on the internet are for WordPress.ORG installs which run on different software.

    @ jhclearenglish I'm in the same boat. every piece of information i've read about this on this site is the same as it is here: creates more confusion than providing answers. DEAR WORDPRESS, PLEASE GIVE US SOME STRAIGHTFORWARD ANSWERS ON HOW TO ADD A PODCAST TO OUR BLOGS. THIS SHOULD BE THE EASIEST THING IN THE WORLD, BUT YOU'VE MADE IT THE MOST CONFUSING THING EVER!!!

    Why should podcasting be easy? It's a skill, same as everything else. Lots of people here have done it, and several top-ranking podcasts are hosted here, but their hosts don't come to the forum to answer questions about how.
