Less Than Bang
Running locally
The _config.yml
file has the live domain set as its url, so to mae thus run locally you need to start the Jekyll server with this command:
jekyll --url http://localhost:4001/
Note the http://
and trailing /
are needed.

Shownotes & stuff, here
Almost every field is required for the iTunes feed to work correctly.
mp3_length
is in minutes & seconds, with a dot seperating the two (using a colon causes issues)
image
in YAML is optional. It should be placed in the /assets/img/ folder and be 1400x1400px as a .png
, .jpg
or .jpeg
to comply with iTunes RSS spec. If not supplied, the default show artwork will be used.
RSS Spec
Can be seen here. http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html. It's a bitch.
