PodPress is STILL a going concern

I’ve been one of the many voices expressing concern about the longevity of the PodPress, the incredible podcasting plugin many of us WordPress users have adopted because of its powerful features and ease of use.

It’s been easy to worry about the plugin.  Some time has past since the last update (code or even news of plans), and, more obviously, the disappearance of the support forums following a SPAM attack.

I spoke with PodPress creator Dan Kuykendall, yesterday.  Dan has been busy with work and his new dual-role as both a techie and CEO and hasn’t been able to attend to PodPress on a day-to-day basis.  He did say that he’s working on a new release and expects to put some time into the coding during the holidays later this month.

So, if you’re a PodPress user, hang in there!

PodPress problems that keep getting worse

It’s really bad timing to have problems with your PodPress installation.  The PodPress Forums page displays a message that they were “screwed up by spammers“, so they’ve been taken completely offline.  Meanwhile (and probably because of the forum issue), Podpress creator Dan Kuykendall is not responding to support requests through email or chats.

If there are any Podpress code experts lurking around and willing to help solve some problems, I’d be more than happy to hear from you!
