How not to add in Podcast feed a regular post without podcast

Some informations for the support.
I know why I have an error, however I don’t know how to fix it.

I have another web site (livesim2.myqnapcloud.com), I used to test plugin. On this site, I duplicate SSP configuration, and created 1 post with podcast. Podcast appears in /feed/podcast with correct article. Then I have created a regular post without podcast. The 2nd post didn’t appear in /feed/podcast. This is a behavior I want to.

However I noticed a major difference. On test site, the post page, doesn’t have a specific options who are in production website. It is Episode Embed Code. I click on SSP Options / General on oEmbed Excerpt and unclick. Then on post page Episode Embed Code appears. And now when i enter a regular post feed is uncorrect as in my production website.

then several questions :
– How to remove Episode Embed Code, in screenshot options ?
– After removing embed code, will the feed be correct ie only post with podcast ?

Thanks for your help. I’m sure you will found a workaround.

Hi Andrew
This is not that embed shortcode. I talk about an area called Episode Embed Code in post page.
For exemple : here it is the code created automatically:

<blockquote class="wp-embedded-content"><a href="http://livesim2.myqnapcloud.com/racontez-le-simracing-avec-live-sim/">Racontez le Simracing avec Live-Sim</a></blockquote>
<script type='text/javascript'>
<!--//--><![CDATA[//><!--
		!function(a,b){"use strict";function c(){if(!e){e=!0;var a,c,d,f,g=-1!==navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE 10"),h=!!navigator.userAgent.match(/Trident.*rv:11\./),i=b.querySelectorAll("iframe.wp-embedded-content");for(c=0;c<i.length;c++){if(d=i[c],!d.getAttribute("data-secret"))f=Math.random().toString(36).substr(2,10),d.src+="#?secret="+f,d.setAttribute("data-secret",f);if(g||h)a=d.cloneNode(!0),a.removeAttribute("security"),d.parentNode.replaceChild(a,d)}}}var d=!1,e=!1;if(b.querySelector)if(a.addEventListener)d=!0;if(a.wp=a.wp||{},!a.wp.receiveEmbedMessage)if(a.wp.receiveEmbedMessage=function(c){var d=c.data;if(d.secret||d.message||d.value)if(!/[^a-zA-Z0-9]/.test(d.secret)){var e,f,g,h,i,j=b.querySelectorAll('iframe[data-secret="'+d.secret+'"]'),k=b.querySelectorAll('blockquote[data-secret="'+d.secret+'"]');for(e=0;e<k.length;e++)k[e].style.display="none";for(e=0;e<j.length;e++)if(f=j[e],c.source===f.contentWindow){if(f.removeAttribute("style"),"height"===d.message){if(g=parseInt(d.value,10),g>1e3)g=1e3;else if(~~g<200)g=200;f.height=g}if("link"===d.message)if(h=b.createElement("a"),i=b.createElement("a"),h.href=f.getAttribute("src"),i.href=d.value,i.host===h.host)if(b.activeElement===f)a.top.location.href=d.value}else;}},d)a.addEventListener("message",a.wp.receiveEmbedMessage,!1),b.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded",c,!1),a.addEventListener("load",c,!1)}(window,document);

I think that is because there is that code, that podcast is modified even if this is a regular post without podcast.

If you want to reproduice, you have to click on oEmbed Excerpt in SSP Options / General and unclick. In my case, in post page, in screen options Episode Embed Code can be ticked and showed.

I hope you understand what I mean.

In podcast post types , Post is checked. If I unselect Post, there is nothing in the feed, because podcast are inside 1 post.
I will try to uninstall SSP on my test site, and reinstall to try to be more precise on how my site is configured, to allow you to reproduice my issue.

Note : I haven’t any custom or modifications in SSP or in my theme

We have published a new post without podcast on friday, and podcast feed (http://www.live-sim.com/feed/podcast) has been updated. If you click on “Pas de Miracle à Road America”, you can see it is not a podcast post.

I’m sure something is incorrect in that site. Settings are the same than in my other sites. I’ m trying to compare mySql DB but it ‘s not funny. Do you have clues?

Hello Andrew
I found how to reproduce the issue. I think it’s a bug you didn’t detect. Here it is my process.
1. Podcast Settings are :
– in General : Podcast post types : Posts
– In General : Media Player locations are : None
2. I create a post with podcast directly in the post while using “Podcast Episode Details” area. Inside the post I enter the following shortcode (as you mention in https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-add-a-player-in-the-middle-of-article-with-shortcode/) :
[podcast_episode episode=”1877″ content=”player”]
(where 1877 is the post ID number)
=> Result :
Post is in the podcast feed
3. I create a regular post without podcast
=> Result (KO):
The regular post is in the Podcast feed. And the podcast from the previous post is attached to the regular post
4. In the post created in 2. I delete the shortcode and update the post.
Result :
Podcast feed is OK. Only post with podcast created in 2 is present.

Conclusion: Shortcode is the root cause of the issue. Either my syntax is incorrect or the case is “misscoding”.

Can you then confirm that you can reproduce the issue ?

Hi Andrew
I have tested another thing. I have tried to reproduce the issue on a fresh wordpress install. The result is ok. I can’t reproduce on a new install.

Then it means something is wrong in my site, even if I use the same theme and the same activate plugins (ssp ans ssp stats).

Then I don’t know how to find out the root cause. Can you please give me ways to search ?
