"Must be full URL" error in PowerPress-generated RSS feed

[T Greg Doucette]

Very (very) new to the podcasting world, and finally got both WordPress and the PowerPress plugin working fine.

The /feed/podcast RSS feed throws an error, which reads:

Sorry
This feed does not validate.
    line 27, column 1: href must be a full URL: https://www.fsckemall.com/wp-content/uploads/powerpress/fsckemall-itunes.jpg

The weird thing is that line 27 has a full URL:
    <itunes:image href="https://www.fsckemall.com/wp-content/uploads/powerpress/fsckemall-itunes.jpg" />

The /feed RSS feed validates if the PowerPress plugin is disabled. Any ideas?

Feed Validator is old and outdated and throws out a lot of unnecessary warnings like the one you've posted about. Better validators can be found at:

I am getting this exact same error for my podcast feed as well.
I run http not https & all other feed validators shows it is good.
But I cannot submit to iTunes, it says 'Cannot Read Feed' .
God damn if anyone can help me work this out....it has been driving me crazy.

Casanova.Audio - I ran your feed thru two validators and everything came up fine. I loaded it in a web browser and nothing odd happened there, either. Try clearing your browser cache and then resubmitting the feed to Podcasts Connect.
