Hi, Group!
Our church is just getting started with Faithlife Sermons... I haven't uploaded anything yet. I'm about to do a mass upload going back about a year, and am concerned with the order in which everything will display. I'd like to make sure everything sorts (and especially appears in our podcast feed) by the date of the sermon, not the upload date. Is there some metadata that I can assign to each mp3, or a setting in Faithlife Sermons, that will accomplish this?
I'll eventually be uploading sermons even older than these, so the feed would be even more out of order if sorted by upload date.
Thanks in advance for any light you can shed!
- Mark Patey you may have used your personal feed instead of your church’s. When viewing your sermons, use the group picker on the left to filter to your group. Then use the ‘profile’ button to go view the church’s profile directly. This is the page you want to grab the feed for. Also, when editing sermons, you have a ‘published as’ dropdown which lets you choose which account owns it. I think in general you want the church group to own it and the pastor to be the speaker. However, we have some pastors/scholars that use the site to publish their sermons under their own account directly
- The feed should update immediately and be visible in chrome as xml. While podcast providers can take some time to reflect the change
- Jordan Sjodin I did exactly as you suggested, and it works! Beautiful :-) Thank you.
