New version: episode forms no longer saving podcast details

Hi,

Note: This error was reported at the end of this thread in 2017, and was not responded too: Auphonic-"Part" and player in Episode missing . I have similar very large post IDs now.

Expected behavior

I got the new version of podlove. I tried to upload our weekly podcast. I would fill out all the information as usual (e.g. change the slug, set the episode name, etc) and publish my episode. It would propogate to my podcast feeds.

Actual behavior

I got the new version of podlove. I tried to upload our weekly podcast. However, the episode will not save anything I put into the form, and automatically clears everything (i.e. the slug, episode name, etc. returns to blank, like I input nothing). It still plays fine if I go directly to the episode link.

This doesn’t make any sense because it can reach every other one of the episodes fine… why cannot it not resolve this specific URL? Why is it saying all my assets are invalid now?

Hopefully this can get resolved quickly because Ive never had an issue with podlove until now, which I didn’t even register an issue was happening until I got a message if our podcast still existed.

I am now getting caching errors. I tried to clear the podcast cache, but it did not fix anything.

I will add that I have also now tried to toggle caching, but that does not solve this issue. When I disable caching, the plugin starts add backslashes (%5C) inbetween my URL.

I have also tried to delete and re-install the entire plugin. This simply resulted in now having no podcasts in my XML, and I still cannot add any podcasts to my feed. And, the random amount of podcasts that remain now have this issue, despite pointing to the correct file:
"The Player recieved an invalid configuration. Without media files the player can't be used. Please reach out to the host to fix this problem."

Interestingly, I can fix this last issue by manually updating the podcast file names. However, I can still not add any new posts with unique podcast names.

Again, all I did was update the plugin from an older version.
