Some of you may be running the popular podcasting plugin for Wordpress called Podpress. If you are and you are also running the new version of Wordpress 2.6 than chances are your Podpress plugin is not working at all for you. The problem is happening with Podpress and the new Revisions feature in Wordpress. Most people, including myself are the only author of our blogs. So the revision feature is useless to us. However the Podpress feature is very important. So what you need to do is turn off your Revisinons feature by placing the following code in your wp-config.php file:
define(‘WP_POST_REVISIONS’, false);
This will eliminate the problem your Wordpress installation is having with the Podpress plugin. So now you can go ahead and write new posts with Podcasts as usual with no interruption.

I implemented this and it still won’t work.
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘DB_NAME’, ’schoolo_wrdp5′); // The name of the database
define(‘DB_USER’, ’schoolo_wrdp5′); // Your MySQL username
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ’sSUo[{jqCuYP’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value
define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8′);
define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);
define(’WP_POST_REVISIONS’, false);
No dice. I put the mpe file into the location in podpress, I click save and it evaporates.
I literally just tried the line on mine and it works…whew! I was worried that I would have to cross-link to my pods indefinitely. Thanks a lot for posting this: I really appreciate it! Take care and have a good weekend.
Thank you I was really trying to get this aspect of my word press blog together, I’m pretty new to word press but I knew I wanted to do a podcast. I was having a hard time till I found this blog thank you dearly.
Will this code solve the problem with the stats not working on podpress? I don’t know anything about code. Do I paste it right in the beginning? How do I even open up a php file? I appreciate any help you can give me.
