The title of the RSS feed is Kommentare zu:
, which suggests to me that some plugin (or the theme) took over the feed URL and tries to deliver some comments feed here. Also the "generator" is https://wordpress.org/?v=5.3
, meaning this feed is not generated by Podlove Publisher but WordPress.
I just remembered an issue with the RSS feed in the theme you use a few years ago: https://github.com/presscustomizr/hueman/issues/256 Maybe the theme is still doing something unorthodox here. Might be worth a shot since it looks like the only thing you didn't try is switching to a default theme.
If it turns out to be the theme, I suggest you contact the theme support.
Thanks for the quick reply.
I did the following, but no changes in the feed :(
The really confusing thing is: most of the time the feed is empty with the 'Kommentare zu' as mentioned above. Sometimes, however, the feed has the following content (still missing the published episode):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><rss version="2.0"
xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"

But I couldn't figure it what causes this behavior. (I also used other computers)
Hmm but there I see a self reference to https://backpackersguide.de/de/feed/mp3/
which is not an expected URL. Maybe an incompatibility with polylang then.
But I'm just guessing. I've never had a behavior like yours reported before.
Apparently, polylang is the problem. I removed it completely and then the feed worked. I also found a way to bring the feed to working with polylang:
By default, polylang does not consider custom post types. Episodes by Podlove are custom, thus before adding the first episode the following settings from Polylang have to be activated:
Settings > Custom post types and taxonomies > episodes
Doing this after publishing episodes won't work
Furthermore, the feed is not available under the listed url, you have to add the language tag
Expected behavior
Actual behavior
I've already tried the following but nothing has worked:
I would love to use the plugin to host the podcast by myself. Please, let me know if there is anything else I can do :-) Any help appreciated.
