subscribe button not working in iTunes

Hi I received the approval email last night to say my new podcast had been approved for iTunes, so I went to check the store to see if it was there. I found it after a search, but when I went to click "subscribe" to test it, nothing happened, although I could play the podcast.


I ran checks through 3 feed validation sites, 2 came up perfect but Feed Validator flagged up 2 errors, regarding <rss version="2.0 "unable to validate namespace" and "use of unknown namespace", although it said the feed was valid.

Could that cause the subscribe button not to work? And if so, any advice on how to fix it would be greatly appreciated as I've no idea what the error means.

My feed is Http://www.meddlesomemeeples.com/feed/podcast

Thank you for reading this,

matt

Hi Roger, thank you for replying.

My apologies, I should have been clearer, the trouble I was having was on the app on my iPhone. I was pressing the subscribe button and nothing was happening, instead of the button changing to unsubscribe. I've just checked it again and it's working now, so I'm guessing it may have been to do with the podcast being recently approved.
