Hello,  
Thanks to Stephan Haslinger et al for pushing out a new update for Octopod that lets you publish / build (static) websites incl. feeds (in xml and json) for your podcasts and radio talk shows.

Find out more @ [https://rubygems.org/gems/jekyll-octopod](https://rubygems.org/gems/jekyll-octopod) and [https://jekyll-octopod.github.io](https://jekyll-octopod.github.io).

Happy publishing with Jekyll and friends.

Can Octopod be used on an existing Jekyll build/website? Just so it isn’t `octopod serve` but `jekyll serve` and it still builds the audio episode as should? And, if possible, how, same as installing and configuring any Jekyll plugin?

Octopod is “just” a Jekyll wrapper with some extensions to make it easy to setup and get started. I’d say best to ask the developer Stefan Haslinger, see [https://github.com/jekyll-octopod/jekyll-octopod](https://github.com/jekyll-octopod/jekyll-octopod) for details if that’s possible or planned in a future update.
