Hi @paultravers,
Thanks for reaching out!
If you already have existing posts in your WordPress site with the same title as the episodes you’re trying to import, the importer would skip those episodes.
This also applies to episodes in draft status or in the trash.
There wasn’t anything else. I first tried making a post, then I got an error (don’t know which one), and then I tried making a Portfolio Item, which worked, but only imported 1 track. Any ideas how to solve this?
Could you please share the podcast RSS feed URL?
Also, are you trying to import with featured images? Sometimes on slow servers this could crash the importer after just a few episodes, but you can run it a few different times to make sure all episodes are imported.

Yes, with featured images. Whenever I retry, it doesn’t work and says the episodes are already imported, but I can’t find them anywhere.
Hi @paultravers,
Sorry for the delay. I didn’t see your reply.
Just tried to run the importer from your feed with images – all 18 episodes were imported without any issues.
If your server times out or doesn’t manage to complete and import all episodes, you can run it again.
Since you’re saying that you get the “episodes are already imported” message, it must mean you already have them somewhere in your site – try looking in the trash/draft posts, other post types and so on.
If this doesn’t help, it might mean it’s stuck somewhere somehow in your DB, but I doubt that’s the case.
