Confusing RSS Issues

    My RSS feed seems to be having some weird issues that just started recently (or so I have been told). Please note that I have not done any coding or site changing in several weeks.

    The problem:
    On my feed https://thetrinitymission.org/feed/dailyoffice/ everything looks fine to me. It shows a feed with the last 5 posts.

    However, on iTunes, Apple Podcasts, and Downcast it only shows some of the posts. You can check it out by searching for “Audio Daily Office @ The Trinity Mission.”

    I can post code if it would help. But conceptually, I can’t figure out why the feed page would correct but iTunes would be messed up.

    Thanks,
    -michael

    I can’t see what is missing vs. what is not missing.
    Your feed ould be caching, can you see if there is a difference between this :
    https://thetrinitymission.org/feed/dailyoffice/?a=45676543
    and :
    https://thetrinitymission.org/feed/dailyoffice/

    Are you using a plugin to Publish ?

    Hi @corrinarusso . I resolved the issue so you wouldn’t be able to see a difference any more. I’m still not sure why there was an issue.

    It’s kind of like my truck. Every now and then it won’t start in Park. I have no idea why – and neither does the mechanic because it always starts in Park when I take it there.

    However, it will always start in Neutral.

    Since I don’t have time to leave my truck at the mechanic for a month until it finally one day gives him a problem as well, I just deal with it.

    Thanks for taking a look. I really appreciate that.

    Submitting your feed to these services can be temperamental.

    They need to be “perfect”. Sometimes it is simply cache, sometimes your image is not “perfectly square”, sometimes you are using a wonky character string that the feed doesn’t like. etc. There are many variables coming from your feed, and many reliances coming from the vendor.
