SS Podcasting no longer finds my audio files
-
Hi
I’ve used SSP for several years now, less of a podcast tool but more to manage a large number of audio files on a local history research site.. The site concerned is closed to non-members but can supply a temporary membership if required.
The audio files are large and are are usually .wav files for best quality – normally much more than the max upload file size for my site so these are uploaded first to a folder, outside of WordPress, using FTP – the \recordings\ folder in the website root. I then link to these files when setting up a ‘podcast’ and don’t use the Upload button. Has worked well for us for several years.
However, following an update (not sure when as we have been pretty dormant for the last year or so with Covid restrictions) the audio no longer plays and ‘Download’ and ‘Open in New Window’ links no longer work and the displayed URLs do not show the link to the file, but one in a folder called typically “/podcast-download/3091/” with a filename that is usually not the original filename and so we get a 404 error.
Can you help please as I really don’t want to have to rebuild 170+ posts? Current version of SSP is 2.11.0 and WP is 5.9.
