 * Hi folks,
 * I’m running into an odd 301 redirect problem after adding an SSL certificate.
   It seems to only be happening with the podcast feed. Because of this iTunes is
   no longer able to validate my feed. When I try to change the feed address in 
   iTunes I get an error messages saying it can not connect to the feed.
 * My new podcast feed is: [https://practiceoftherapy.com/podcast/feed](https://practiceoftherapy.com/podcast/feed).
 * The old feed, [http://practiceoftherapy.com/podcast/feed](http://practiceoftherapy.com/podcast/feed)
   is redirecting to [https://practiceoftherapy.com/practiceoftherapy/podcast/feed](https://practiceoftherapy.com/practiceoftherapy/podcast/feed);
   there is the extra “practiceoftherapy” in the base URL.
 * I am using the “Really Simple SSL” WordPress plugin and I have also tried to 
   use the “Simple 301 redirect” plugin specifically for the podcast feed but still
   get the same problem.
 * I am also using the “Powerpress” plugin to publish my podcasts. Use Libsyn for
   my podcast hosting.
 * Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I need to get the podcast
   feed working properly.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fpodcast-feed-problems%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi,
 * it seems that the feed is missing some information that is required for iTunes
   to validate the feed, for example an <author> tag. Check out the following tool
   which details the information required by iTunes: [https://podba.se/validate/?url=https://practiceoftherapy.com/podcast/feed/](https://podba.se/validate/?url=https://practiceoftherapy.com/podcast/feed/)

 * Hi,
 * there’s not an option to add it with Really Simple SSL, if you generate the feed
   using a plugin you might need to check the plugin settings or contact the plugin
   author.
