Hello,

I am wondering where or how to update the
tag in the iTunes feed. The website url on iTunes is pointing to our feed page rather than our site. It seems like it is something that is really simple, but I can't seem to find where to change it.

Thanks!
Sean

Are you using the default view? Just double checked the default, and yeah it seems like a bug. I guess we need to figure out if we're attached to a display and if one of them has a path and use that as the link.

Where in the code can I look to change this?

I think the code for finding the link in views was getting confused by having the feed ahead of the page. I've switched the order in the default view and it seems to work as you'd expect. Could you apply this patch then revert the itunes view and see if it solves it for you?

Hi Andrew,

It looks like your change worked. It isn't showing up on iTunes correctly yet, but it is in the xml file so I'm assuming it is just cached on the apple server. Thanks so much for your help. We're the #3 podcast in our category on iTunes so I really wanted to get the correct url on the main page.

Thanks again
Sean

I encountered this issue with my own view, and to complicate matters i do not have a page display handler in the view (i'm embedding the view in panels).

Therefore I need to manually specify the link value in a field.

I have attached a slightly hackish patch that achieves this, i had to manually override the display handler path and also the link_display option to make sure it gets through into the theme function.

Other ways of doing this could be a custom theme function, or trying to get the link functionality into the views rss plugin itself.

Hum... yeah i guess if there's no page display you'd need to be able to specify it... anyone else have any thoughts?

Hello, I think the link field from Smoothify's patch is absolutely what's needed here. Can we implement it?
