Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: RSS feed enclosuresI’m with timbearcub … I want to control what enclosures I distribute. Right now I can’t delete unwanted enclosures.
I only found out what enclosures are a few days ago, and now I’ve got people telling me they can’t take my feed because of the way enclosures are handled by WordPress. Aaarrgh!
What’s needed is a hack or fix that allows the enclosure feature to be toggled on/off, or only includes an enclosure when a certain attribute tag is present.
Developers, please see suggestions:

In reply to: How do I take out an enclosure?A common-sense suggestion was made here:

Can someone come up with a PHP hack that will mean only links that include rel=”enclosure” are turned into RSS enclosures by WordPress?
The hack would only have to be implemented by those who want it …

In reply to: Feature Request: RSS Enclosure and the rel propertyThis sounds like the fix I’ve been looking for, and so have numerous other people.
Someone? Anyone?

In reply to: How do I take out an enclosure?Sorry, to clarify, I have two movie files in each post, a hi-res first and then a lo-res one, and I only want the hi-res to go out in the feed. The lo-res one is for dialup visitors to the site.
WordPress is attracting some negative comment in the video blogging and podcast communities because of this problem, so I hope the developers will take note and rectify.

In reply to: How do I take out an enclosure?No! PLEASE just tell us how to delete the unwanted enclosure tags, or disable the enclosure feature altogether so we can hand-code it into our posts or something.
It’s a widespread standard for enclosures that only one should be allowed per post; for those of us who wish to comply with this standard, so our blogs can be properly syndicated, please fix.
Right now, I generally get two enclosure tags added by WordPress to each post but I only want one (for the first movie file in the post, the hi-res and the lo-res versions). When I delete the second enclosure, it refreshes and I end up with THREE, ie the second one and a duplicate of it.
