Works but...
Well where do I start? It works, yes. (5 Stars) But:It says "now with Gutenberg support", well no, not really. It either copies a shortcode into your clipboard, which you need to copy into a shortcode block. Or it creates a new post, which is a classic editor block. So, it kind of works with Gutenberg, but calling it "Gutenberg Support" is exgagurated. (-1 Star) Next, if you are a paying customer in the business tier for at least 65€/month, and you are using a custom subdomain, which likely is one of the reasons you're paying a 40€ premium per month. The plugin will not work. (-1 Star) (*) If you contact the Podigee Support (as paying customer) you'll get the response, it's known not to work with custom domains (which, just to remind us, we paid a lot of money to get in the first place). (-1 Star) Now, my company has a custom domain, I had the choice of accepting this, or try to fix it. curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $Url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); + curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true); $output = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); By adding the marked line in the podigee-quick-publish.php, the plugin works with custom domains. I've sent this patch, among some minor fixes for broken code, to podigee at the 16th March 2023 and well... obviously no update, otherwise I wouldn't be writing this, and worst of all, not even a reply. This deducts the next star, leaving us at 1 Star. TLDR: If you are not using a custom domain, or if you are willing to add my patch above, the plugin is ok, and would rather get 3-4 stars at the current state. My biggest complaint is, that Podigee ignores a paying business tier customer and ignores a sent in patch file. @Podigee: I'm more than happy updating my review, once you update the plugin. *) EDIT May 2024: Custom Domains are supported roughly 8 Months after I've done my initial review and roughly 10 Months after I've sent them my initial email. Since I can't test it anymore the following update is untested

Great, but still requires manual work
The plugin has evolved a lot since the last release and the Gutenberg support is really good. Really handy to transfer all data from the RSS feed into the post. The only thing that I am missing now is an auto-publish function. I have to wait until the episode is published, before I can update the Wordpress page. As I take care of all the meta-data in the Podigee web-site, there is no real need for me to review the Wordpress post before publishing. Which makes it more complicated, I cannot see finished Podigee episodes that are finished but have a publishing date in the future in Wordpress. If that was the case I could at least set a date to publish along with the Podigee publishing date. At the same time - since the RSS feed is the bridge, it is probably quite impossible to fix this. Small feature request: I would like to be able to select the items that are taken over in the auto-post (my subtitle never changes for example but is then added into every post)
