Getting a podcast visible in Itunes (3 posts)

    After setting up my blog mvplifestyle.com/blog so that I am able to post audio interviews I would like to figure out how or what precise steps I must take so that it will become compatible with itunes. I have spent a long time trying to unsucessfully use Feedforall. I would appreciate the advice of someone who has already done this successfully. I am using version 2.0 of WordPress on a mac portable and seem to be turning around in circles while trying to figure this out. I am not very handy with html, xml, php or any other programing language.

    Thanks
    John

    If you link using an 'absolute' URL (i.e. one starting with 'http://') to an mp3 on your server in a post, then WordPress automagically picks it up and recognises it as an 'enclosure'. Then, you should be able to just stick your feed (http://yoursite.com/feed) into iTunes and it should pick everything up. If you have any problems let us know.

    Oh, and http://codex.wordpress.org/Podcasting should help you out a lot.

    Thankyou David
    When you say "just stick your feed http://yoursite.com/feed) into iTunes and it should pick everything up" Do you mean :
    "feed://www.mvplifestyle.com/blog/?feed=rss2"?
    I got this link by clicking on the "Entries (RSS) and Comments (RSS)." at the bottom of my blog page and then copying the link.
