 * Hi Jesse,
 * First than all thank you for this very useful plugin. I need help with something:
 * I am using the inline shortcode with the parameter max_episodes=”5″ but always
   shows 1 episode.
 * If I add the options in the configuration page it works fine, but not with the
   inline shortcode. I need to add a different potcast source by page, that’s why
   I am trying the inline shortcode.
 * One more thing, if I add a Anchor RSS URL and Total Episodes To Display in the
   configuration, the shortcode is not overriding those values. I got for example
   the first episode ready to play from one source, and the list of episodes from
   another source. Here the complete source I want to import: [El Sendero del Devoto • A podcast on Spotify for Podcasters](https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/elsenderodeldevoto)
 * Here an image as example as how it shows when does not override default config
   parameters:

 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fmax_episodes-inline-not-working%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi, 
   Thanks for the message. It looks like the RSS URL might not be correct, 
   as there are no episodes being output in the episode index. Could you please 
   check that you are using the correct URL? You can find info on how to get it 
   [here](https://help.spotifyforpodcasters.com/hc/en-us/articles/12515678291995-Your-RSS-feed).
   Also please send me your RSS URL if you are still having issues. Thanks 🙂

 * Hi Jesse,
 * Thanks for your response. Here is the RSS URL I am using:
 * `https://anchor.fm/s/d9674470/podcast/rss`
 * You can find where I am getting the url from in the image below:
 * [https://ibb.co/QdXr9Cb](https://ibb.co/QdXr9Cb)
 * This is the shortcode that I am using:
 * `[anchor_episodes site_url="https://anchor.fm/elsenderodeldevoto" rss_url="https://
   anchor.fm/s/d9674470/podcast/rss" max_episodes="5"]`

 * Thanks for confirming the RSS URL.
   After testing I do see that this shortcode
   attribute has stopped working after a recent update.I’ve just released a fix.
   After updating to the latest version, it should be working for you. I appreciate
   you getting in touch to alert me about the problem.

   and fast resolution. It is a great plugin
