Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have two episodes available for my podcast "Binghamton Basketball and Beyond." Both episodes appear in the iTunes store (https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/binghamton-basketball-and-beyond/id132248428 8?mt=2), but only the most recent episode appears in the iTunes podcast feed. How do I get all the episodes to appear in the iTunes feed?
My podcast XML URL is: http://www.bubearcatspodcasts.com/common/text/BBB.xml
You have duplicated the 'guid' tag when adding your second episode.
<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.bubearcatspodcasts.com/main/index.php/bbb-podcast</guid>
iTunes uses the 'guid' tag to dermine whether there is a new episode. On reading the second episode down in the feed (Epsiode 1) it finds the same tag and ignores the episode. Every episode's 'guid' tag must be unique, not only to your podcast but across all podcasts. For this reason the simplest solution is to use the URL of the media file - with 'guid is PermaLink' set to 'true' this is what you should be doing anyway.

This was exactly the change I needed to make, Roger. Thank you very much for your help. Both episodes now appear in the iTunes feed.
