      I tried every combination I could, but I can’t get Echo RSS to pull the audio player or thumbnail for my podcast RSS feed from Buzzsprout. Below is a link to the RSS feed source code. Please help!

      Hello,

      First of all, thank you for your purchase.

      To parse the image and the podcast audio from this feed, you need to set up the plugin as follows:

      in the plugin’s ‘Main Settings‘ menu:

      Feed Item Custom Tag Names:
      enclosure*url,itunes:image*href

      -> save settings

      Afterwards, please go to the rule you created for the above RSS feed, in the ‘RSS to Posts’ plugin menu and set:

      Generated Post Content:
      <img src=”%%custom_itunes:image*href%%”>
      <br/><br/>%%item_content%%<br/><br/>
      %%custom_enclosure*url%%

       

      -> save settings and import new posts.

      Let me know if this helped.

      Regards, Szabi – CodeRevolution.

      Thanks for your quick response. I tried what you sent me above but it still isn’t working: https://lateawakening.com/out-of-the-woods-the-late-awakening-comedy-podcast/

      I guess I am going to give up. I’ve spent about 14 hours trying everything possible. I guess the plugin just won’t work with Buzzsprout’s feed 🙁

      Hello,

      I switched the following settings in importing rule settings, to enable custom attribute importing from RSS feeds:

      Feed Parsing Method To Use:
      Use Custom SimplePie Library

      However, now I see that a new issue appeared in the importing process, as your WordPress site does not have enough memory to parse this specific RSS feed. The error is the following:

      Out of memory (allocated 164528128) (tried to allocate 46038784 bytes)

      To fix this issue, please contact your hosting provider’s support and ask them to increase the available memory for your website to 256Mb or 512Mb.

      This should help solve this issue and correctly import more items from this RSS feed.

      Regards.

      Great! Thank you so much. I will try to get my webhost to boost my memory.

      Thanks again for all your help 🙂
