 * I’m updating an old podcast site built in WordPress using PowerPress. All the
   podcast episodes were created as posts. The theme I’m trying to set up is expecting
   post-type = episode. I’ve installed a plugin (post type switcher) to change post
   types. However, when I change the post-type to episode, the post disappears from
   the podcast RSS feed. (PowerPress 8.4.6 and WP 5.6) Is there something I need
   to change in PowerPress settings?
 * I’d appreciate any advice.

 * Yes, PowerPress uses POSTS post-type by default.
 * To use a different post-type enable “Custom Podcast Channels” in PowerPress settings
   > Advanced menu.
    Then in the sidebar under PowerPress click on “podcast channels”
   and edit the default channel. In the “other” menu, there is a post type pulldown.
   Pull it down to your post type and save changes.

 * Thanks Mike! Just one more question. I’d like to be able to make this seamless
   for the podcast subscribers. I’m redirecting the feed to podcastmirror.com. I
   have two hundred episodes. If I do a bulk edit on the episodes to change the 
   post type to episode, then turn on custom Podcast Channels in PowerPress will
   podcastmirror update before I finish the process?
 * Any advice would be appreciated. (PS I love Podcast Insider. Great show!)

 * Podcast mirror will pull your feed every so often, but I don’t think it will 
   be a problem. The base feed won’t change. Mirror should remain the same all the
   way through.
