Podcasts disappeared from iTunes store

Hello. I had set up my podcast about a month ago and had 3 episodes up in the iTunes store. I went to see what the page looked like in the iTunes store the other day and noticed none of the episodes are showing up. Just the image and the description. Here is the link to the page:


https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-strive-fitness-insider/id578656872?mt=2


PLEASE HELP!


The feed seems to be working fine. Not sure why the episodes aren't showing up now!

Your feed, which is at


http://istrivefitness.com/feed/podcast


does not have any 'enclosure' tags containing the URLs of playable media, as is necessary for iTunes; although there are 'itunes:duration' tags and the wording of the descriptions makes it clear that it's intended that there should be media files present. iTunes does not display episodes which have no playable media, which is why your podcast is turning up empty.


You have constructed your feed in Wordpress, and I can't advise on that, or what you might have done to cause these tags (which were presumably there in the first place) to disappear.

Roger,


You were kind enough to help out Strive with an issue I also seem to be having.


I have been using Feeder to post our podcasts and all was working fine for months.


The past few days, our podcasts are not showing up. They used to post within hours and now they are not showing up on our iTunes site:


https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/quinnipiac-athletics-recreation/id250215965? mt=2


Not sure why, as they ARE showing up on the "feed" site:


http://athleticsmedia.quinnipiac.edu/athletics/podcasts/QU-Mens-IceHockey.xml


Note the Dec 22 and Dec 26th podcasts have not yet made it to iTunes.


Any help or suggestions woud be appreciated. Note the 12/22 podcast wasa tribute to the children and teaches at Sandy Hook.


Thx Much
