Anyone know if there might be a good tutorial for setting up podcasts? I'm currently using version 4.4.4 but all the of the documentation for the SMS extension on the typo3 site is confusing me since my xml feed should be here but no sermons are listed and I'm not getting any errors. http://www.desmoinesfellowship.org/index.php?id=145&type=222 Maybe someone here has had success getting their xml feed working with a recent version? I feel like it's probably something simple I've overlooked. -brad- |

Not yet. Videos seem to help me the most though while learning. I'm planning on installing the most recent version of typo3 soon. Hopefully that will fix some issues. "Raphael Moor" wrote:

I recently upgraded to 4.5.4 but still having trouble with this. Unfortunately I've read through the documentation on the typo3 site but it seems to be outdated so I keep getting lost when it tells you to do something and the option isn't there. Also a lot of the links are broken in the typo3 site documentation now that they've upgraded their site. I'd really love to add an rss feed but my xml feed page just shows up as blank. http://www.desmoinesfellowship.org/index.php?id=78&type=222 Not sure where to go from here. Anyone have any ideas? |

Seeing that page id 78 works to show your sermons and type 222 shows what looks like the start of your RSS feed, I think you have a configuration issue. I would check out the templates to see what's configured. It's possible that a template could be overriding something else you have configured. With just a quick look, I'd guess at the storage folder or something similar because it seems set up but not finding the files. Have a look at the various templates and configs around your podcast setup and make sure that the storage folders are set to the correct location for your sermon resources. I definitely think you're on the right track and you're just missing one or two things. -Peter |

Thanks for the tips. I think you're probably right. It's most likely something minor I'm missing. Unfortunately I'm not to good at deciphering typoscript. I just did the WEC starter package install hoping the RSS feed would already be set up and I could just configure it. Perhaps I'm missing some documentation though. I'll keep digging.

(Not sure why the profiles don't seem to allow PMs on this site.) No guarantees, but I might see what you're missing. -Peter |

That would be great! I'll set up a temp login for you to take a look. "Peter Schott" wrote:

Jeff/Bill - if one of you could help out here, I think Brad would appreciate it. I poked around on his Sermon pages, looked at the templates, and from what I can tell, they're all set up correctly (or at least in the same way our RSS/podcast feed is set up). I'm out of ideas here unless something needs to be configured at a higher level than just on that page. Even then, I took a look at our core Template and didn't see anything that stood out as "this must be here for podcasts to work". If one of you can jump on and see if you have ideas or can look around, please respond. -Peter |

Brad, XML and RSS are not my strong suits by any means, but if you'll send me a backend admin login by personal email I'll take a look and see if I can find the issue. bill(at)webempoweredchurch[dot]org "Brad Linberg" wrote: That would be great!
