UPDATE^2: Okay, this is definitely a helpful plugin. Before this app, I was having trouble with it taking too many clicks to get to subscribe on iTunes; and trying to subscribe on Android was just a mess. Very cool solution, and plugin author very helpful and patient with issue which ended up being on server.
I wonder if it’s possible to change the color to the typical podcast icon purple, approximately #8A27E7 …?
Thanks again, chemiker, and I would definitely recommend this plugin to podcasters who face a similar issue. I will be giving it some love on this week’s episode for sure.

UPDATE: It appears that the problem may be Bluehost not running PHP 5.4.2…and the author responded promptly…so raising the rating immediately to 3 stars while I researcg and hope to do better soon. This should be pretty helpful if I can get it to work.

Would love to see this work (and don’t mind updating the rating if it works), but it wouldn’t activate on 4.1.4 or 4.2.1.
