Hi there, I’m having a strange problem: he latest episode #130 of our podcast doesn’t appear in our feed: ```auto curl -s "https://siebenlinden.org/de/feed/mp3/?_=$(date +%s)" | grep -i "Folge 130" ``` I’ve done everything I can: delete the episode and create it anew. Clear Caches etc. etc. The Podcast is here: [Ökodorf Podcast - Ökodorf Sieben Linden](https://siebenlinden.org/de/oekodorf-podcast/) The media File is here: [https://media.siebenlinden.org/podcast/DerOekodorfPodcastAusSiebenLinden-Folge130.mp3](https://media.siebenlinden.org/podcast/DerOekodorfPodcastAusSiebenLinden-Folge130.mp3) Our Feed: [Der Ökodorf-Podcast aus Sieben Linden](https://siebenlinden.org/de/feed/mp3/) Maybe it’s a problem that our wordpress site recently moved to mittwald and the media files are still on a IONOS webspace (Subdomain [media.siebenlinden.org](http://media.siebenlinden.org)) What can I do to fix it? Please help, it’s very appreciated! Jens ---

It does not matter if Publisher and media files are on the same machine. On the contrary, it is _encouraged_ to have them on different machines. So that’s not your issue. My guess would have been that, due to the move, there are two WordPress running and you are looking at the feed of the old one. But [siebenleben.de](http://siebenleben.de) comes from 185.215.158.240 and `whois 185.215.158.240` says Mittwald, so 🤷‍♂️ From what I can see from the outside, everything looks fine. ---

Digging into the issue together with @jensfk it turned out that for a reason beyond our comprehension a checkbox in the polylang plugin settings was disabled, with the effect that podcast episodes where no longer considered to be multilanguage, thus no longer saved with a language indicator upon creation or update. Podlove, when building the feed and querying for new episodes with a specific (German in our case) language key tagged to them, did not find newly created ones without that key, so the did not make it into the feed. We had already noticed that the WP admin episodes editor had no longer a language widget/dropdown in the right pane; the eventual clue came from [RSS feed not working together with polylang · Issue #1090 · podlove/podlove-publisher · GitHub](https://github.com/podlove/podlove-publisher/issues/1090#issuecomment-561498483) . The solution has indeed already been mentioned here in the podlove community forum, thougly less explicitly so: [Doc/solution: Podlove publisher and polylang (18n)](https://community.podlove.org/t/doc-solution-podlove-publisher-and-polylang-18n/2862) ---

The problem had to do with missing tick on a setting in polylang plugin. Have a look here: [Doc/solution: Podlove publisher and polylang (18n)](https://community.podlove.org/t/doc-solution-podlove-publisher-and-polylang-18n/2862) #pluginhellanyone? thanks @fwolfst and @ndop1784😃 Consider the problem solved and thread closed. Thanks everyone.
