why iWeb won't update rss feed?

How come my iWeb created website will only ever show the first 5 podcasts in my rss feed? It won’t even show the most recent ones! I really need help. I’ve searched and searched. I would be really grateful if you would help me with this.

Here’s my feed:

feed://cornerstonebaptistkingman.org/Cornerstone_Baptist_Church/Podcast/rss.xml

Here’s my podcast page:

http://www.cornerstonebaptistkingman.org/Podcast/Podcast.html

Here’s my podcast inspector: it shows 50 entries allowed

Are you aware that the RSS Widget is not working due to the closure of MobileMe....

you reached the default limit number of blog/podcast, they are set to max of 50 article.

you can get around by start another podcast or go inside iweb.app and mod blog/podcast widgets.

The answer is nothing to do with any of the above. You've been tampering with the folder structure of your site. It was originally in a folder called Cornerstone_Baptist_Church and produced the feed file you linked to. Between July 8th and 15th you moved your site to be at root level of your server (the old site is still there at http://cornerstonebaptistkingman.org/Cornerstone_Baptist_Church/Home.html )

This consequently changed the feed URL. Your up-to-date feed is at

http://cornerstonebaptistkingman.org/Podcast/rss.xml

Are you in the iTunes Store? I couldn't find you by searching. If so you will need either to move the page back to where it was, or manually add the redirection tag to the old feed by downloading it, editing it in TextEdit in plain text mode, and re-uploading it. The method is described here:
