Warning Custom tags are inserted directly into your RSS feed, so if done incorrectly, it could cause issues with your feed and show listings. |
Before adding extra RSS tags, we recommend you research which custom tags are supported by the listening platforms you want to target and add only those tags.
This article explains how to enable the ability to add extra RSS tags at the episode level.
