I’ve also forwarded to your question to the lead developer of PowerPress. He’ll take a look at it as soon as he can.
Yeah, I’ve looked at that doc several times.
I wonder if there are any others using Godaddy shared hosting with secured feeds.
No dedicated IP. The more I think about it the more I think that could be the weak link.
Please let me know what you find out. I’m not seeing really any other options for securing the RSS feed that could talk to my users DB. Really want to make this work somehow.
Thanks for forwarding that over!
Can you share a link to your website so I can take a look?
It may be that your hosting is setup using PHP in what is called FastCGI mode. In FastCGI mode some settings need to be in place in order to apporpriately pass-on authentication information. Learn more here: http://create.blubrry.com/resources/powerpress/advanced-tools-and-options/premium-podcasting-content/premium-podcasting-q/
You can find out if you are running FastCGI mode by going to PowerPress > Tools, clicking the option “Diagnostics”.
We have tested 6many membership plugins over the years with PowerPress with success. We have never tested or setup the “Simple WordPress Membership” plugin though. If you are in contact with the developers of this plugin, please have them contact me at cio [at] blubrry dot com. We would love to work with them to add support for PowerPress. My brief read of the features in Simple WordPress Membership gives me the impression that they do not handle RSS feeds, which may be a problem. I also did not find anywhere in their documentation where they use roles and capabilities. The membership plugin you use must either use roles and capabilities built into WordPress or specifically tie-in to PowerPress in order for premium podcasting to work. It may be that the Simple WordPress Membership plugin is using roles and capabilities they just did not document it. If you reach out to them, a quick email conversation with them will tell me exactly what will be needed in order to make this work with PowerPress.
It says I’m running in CGI mode.
Edited htaccess and still not working. This is what my htaccess looks like:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

docfemme, You have multiple sets of RewriteRules (the sections that start with <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>), you should only have one. You want to keep the section with the RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*) rule.
Did consolidating to one set of rewrite rules fix your issues?
