Q: Valid feed but error in Podcast Connect

Here is a link to my feed. http://www.leighpeele.com/ynthtfeed.xml

 

I was trying to add more categories to my feed. Had a few errors, fixed them, and now the feed validates in ever validator I have checked. I get Congratulations every time and it works through feedcast, etc.

 

Went into itunes connect and saw this...


Can’t parse your feed. Invalid XML: Error on line 132: The element type "itunes:category" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</itunes:category>".

 

Any ideas? Thanks in advance

    There is no line 132 in the feed - there are only 90 - so I've no idea what that's about: I can't check it in Podcasts Connect because it's already been submitted. But why bother about it? The podcast is in the Store and is up to date, and is fine when subscribing, so you've no need to validate it.

     

    However there is an amendment you should make: two of your episodes have the 'explicit' tag set to 'yes', and so you need to have that tag for the entire podcast (in the top section of the feed) set to 'yes' as well.
