Restarting my Podcast

Hi - I am restarting my video podcast after a hiatus of a couple of years. The framework still exists in the Store, and I have attempted to send an updated summary through WordPress, which hosts my podcast. I haven't been able to figure out a way of testing my feed to see if it still works/is still connected. And since it's been a couple of years, it's occurred to me that things might have changed on the iTunes end in the interim.


I will be uploading a trailer to my website tomorrow morning. Do I just wait to see if it rolls over to iTunes as it used to? Or is there a way to check on it now in advance?


Any help would be appreciated.


My podcast is called All About African Violets. Here is what Wordpress says my feed is: https://allaboutafricanviolets.com/category/podcasts/feed/

Your podcast is still in the iTunes Store at All About African Violets by Adrienne "Annie" Rieck on Apple Podcasts


The feed has only one episode, but as it has no playable media it doesn't appear in the Store or when subscribing. (It also has no title.) Normally I can check whether the feed the Store is using matches the one you quote, but it's not working in this case. It probably is. You should be able to add an episode in the normal way: when you've done that and uploaded the feed again you should subscribe to it from the 'Subscribe' button on the Store page and check that the episode appears in iTunes (in the Library/Podcasts section): it may take the Store a couple of days to catch up, possibly more as the feed's been moribund for some time. You can also check the status of your podcast as http://podcastsconnect.apple.com - click on the image for the podcast and it should show as 'Active'.
