Permalink – “Match feed to” doesn’t work?

    Dear Support.
    I’m on the current WP 5.6 version.

    My “Plugins-Setting-Website-Permalinks-Match feed to page/category” keeps telling me:
    “When configured, https://eyeofpatrick.com/podcast/ is matched to page/category named ‘podcast’.”

    I need to know why and how to change it. Because that not what I need/want!
    I want to have ONE site that is named /podcast and I’d like to put whatever text there. The RSS feed can be whatever. I don’t care actually. But if I hit the eyeofpatrick.com/podcast in the browser, it directs me to the RSS-Codepage. And I need to change that.
    The RSS feed is by the way: https://eyeofpatrick.com/feed/podcast/

    I have a category that’s named “podcast-episode” and I did one test episode there. Everything is cool.

    But I cannot create a “/podcast” site, because it’s somehow blocked by the plugin. Can you tell me how to change that?

    What I want to be the “/podcast” site is currently “/podcast-index”. Just for information.

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    In the PowerPress settings > Website tab, there is a permalinks setting. Pull that down to “Match feed…” instead of “Default WordPress… ” Save changes.

    That should make the /podcast/ page work for you.

    Alternitively, change the slug for the /podcast/ page to /podcasts/ Or /episodes/. The word “podcast” as a slug is reserved for podcast RSS feeds in WordPress.
