Description
I have created a playlist of the episodes of my podcast and ordered them in the correct order. However, when I view the RSS feed, they do not respect my order and are sorted randomly.
#1
RSS, *by definition* must be sorted in reverse chronological order by date created. It does not care about the order of the playlist.
#2
However, it does not sort them even by the "authored on" date. The order is not relative to Date Created or Date Updated. Is there another date I'm missing?
#3
Could you provide a link?
What I'm saying is that even if the XML feed looks like it's outputting things in random order, any standard RSS reader will sort by the pubDate. But without seeing your XML feed I'm not sure what it is doing...it should output pretty normally.

the feed address is:
