 * Oh… yeah that’s gonna do it isn’t it?
 * That was a copy and paste, so that’s probably the issue. I’ll fix the shortcodes
   and get back to you.

 * So…
 * Being in IT all I can do is laugh at myself.
    This is gonna be one of those PEBKAC
   tickets we all love so much.
 * Yep. Apparently, at some point, I was clicking around in SEO and left the post
   title modifier to “Feed episode title appended to post title” so yeah, this isn’t
   a problem at all, it’s a feature.
 * Now my question is if I disable this in prod, will it cause my listener’s podcatchers
   to see all the posts as new episodes because the name is fixed?
 * Thanks for all the help, I’ll try to go from 0 to panic a little less quickly
   next time 😉

 * Yep. Running 2017 as the theme and the only active plugin is PowerPress.
    It’s
   my dev server – I can send an email login info?
 * Can I hook into the function in my functions.php and say something like
    if powerpress
   title != “” {use it} else {use post title}
 * Any help would be great, thanks!

 * Hey Angelo,
 * Thanks, sometimes the tinkering works 😉
 * Level checked that box and the problem persists. I also have no other plugins
   running and no caching (debugging on dev).
 * Is there a way that WordPress might be doubling up?

 * So, modifying line 123 if feed-podcast.php will effect the change I’m looking
   for.
    Which makes me think the real question is how <title><?php the_title_rss()?
   ></title> is arrived at. the_title_rss() shows up powerpress.php but I don’t 
   see anything obvious that would cause the duplication. I’m going to keep digging
   but if I have to replace this with the_title() or get_the_title() etc I can but…
   editing core plugin/theme files is of course a terrible idea.
 * And I’m not sure if changing the titles in the way will cause peoples pod players
   to see the posts with the fixed title (all of them) as new episodes. I *really*
   don’t want to cause my listeners to get a bunch of downloads they’ll just have
   to delete.

 * The only thing I’ve found that fixes the problem is clearing the “Episode Title”
   field (with the “Custom epsiode title for feed” prompt).
 * That will remove the duplicate title, leaving only the post title. The frustrating
   is that those are different very much on purpose. The Ep title I would like to
   see on iTunes etc and the Post_title is formatted as it is for use in my theme.
 * Nevermind that “Fixing” the problem by removing all the Episode Title fields 
   means manually touching 156 episode posts :X
 * Help?

 * Here’s a bit of the feed, something is clearly inserting the post_title into 
   the feed title…

 * Also, I’ve cloned my site to dev and disabled everything but powerpress and changed
   to default 2015 theme. The dev feed shows the same issue: [Post Title] – [Podcast
   title]
 * Any help on this would be great, thanks all!

 * Hey SSP,
 * I’ve got a client that’s a little over 130 episodes into the same problem. The
   files are basically just media attachments to the post. Is there an import tool
   of some kind? If not, +1 to that.
 * Thanks!

 * Yeah… that doesn’t entirely work. The App, Page and my account are all the same
   and I still get user hasn’t authorized 200 errors… this is just a pain to setup.

 * Hi Tobias,
 * Thanks for the quick reply!
 * I’m sorry it won’t work out, but I’ll take your advise and fiddle with DataTables
   JS myself, I’ll get something put together that adds up to a solution, though
   I doubt it will be as clean as TablePress. Really, great plugin!
 * Thanks again,

 * Or, as I think about it, a simple front end data entry would be awesome. A few
   required text string fields and a file upload field (the first column, File Name,
   is also supposed to be a link to download that file), that would solve the problem.
 * In the end, we’re going to have like 60 people adding data. We don’t want them
   all to be in the WP dashboard and certainly can’t have them all editing a 1000
   row table manually, it would turn into mush. A front end data entry system would
   take care of that. I could just put it on a page that only x,y and z users or
   users of a specific level have access to.
 * Thoughts?
