Hosting: I see an error when importing episodes

« to Import existing podcast

Follow these steps when:

  • You see an error when importing episodes

Likely causes:

Errors appear upon episode import when episodes or RSS feeds are not formatted correctly. See the troubleshooting steps below for details on formatting specifics.

Suggested troubleshooting steps

  • Check your podcast on an RSS feed validator for metadata that is missing, incorrectly formatted, or unsupported. Any incorrect metadata will prevent the import.
  • Make sure your feed contains episodes before importing. If the RSS feed contains channel information but no episode items, nothing can be imported.
  • Add an image to upload your episodes. RSS feeds must include a valid podcast image that meets size and format requirements.
  • Remove any corrupted episodes to import your podcast. One corrupted episode can block the entire import process.
