Hi @grimesweb

Seriously Simple Podcasting is owned and managed by Castos Hosting, in fact it was me that helped you in support today regarding the secure connection error. 🙂

Hi @julianbeip and @swagit

We’ve pushed out a point release (2.5.1) this morning which resolves this issue.

Thank you for your patience while we fixed it.

Regards

@ahmetsali thanks for the feedback.

Could I ask you to list the two cons as issues on our GitHub repository, that way we can look at improving them in future updates.

Hello @insiderzfr

Because you are wanting to return the series image on a single podcast page, you cannot use get_query_var( ‘term’ ). This would only work on a series archive page, where the series term is passed into the request.

On a single podcast page, you need to get the current podcast(post) id, and then get the series attached to that podcast, to get the series image

$all_series_array = get_the_terms( get_the_ID(), 'series' );

This will return an array of all the series terms attached to the current podcast, and you can use that to select a single series, and then use the series image attachment code from the original support ticket you referenced.

Hi @miragepv

In order to include podacst episodes on your Authors page, you’re going to have to either customise the theme template that shows the authors page, ideally through a child theme, or filter the arguments that generate the posts for the author page, to include podcast post types.

Are you comfortable making these types of changes in either a child theme or custom plugin?

Hi @fledo

Thanks for reporting this. At the moment the current iteration of the HTML5 Player is not compatible with infinite scroll functionality.

We are however in the process of replacing the HTML5 player with a new, more streamlined and less resource heavy version, and once that is released, we can focus on compatibility with things like infinite scroll.

Hello @eangulus

Looking at the functionality of the Organize Series plugin, it seems that this plugin creates the same custom taxonomy as our plugin, namely series.

The default functionality of Seriously Simple Podcasting is to use the series taxonomy to allow a user to create multiple RSS feeds for each series. You can read more about this here – https://support.castos.com/article/24-working-with-podcast-series

So by using two plugins that create and use the same custom taxonomy, it will mean that the custom functionality of each plugin will take affect on any custom terms you create.

There is however a way around this. Seriously Simple Podcasting allows you to customize the slug for the custom series taxonomy it creates, to something other than series so that you have more control.

You can use the ssp_series_slug and ssp_series_taxonomy filters to change the custom taxonomy from the default of series, to anything else you prefer (maybe podcast_series) to give you the control you require.

In a child theme or custom plugin, you can use the following code to do this
