<h4>1 Manual WordPress Shortcode</h4>
<p>Use a simple shortcode in your posts and pages, and the Podlove Web Player will appear, playing any media file you want to assign. Basic usage:</p>
<pre><code>[podlove-web-player
  theme="default"
  config="default"
  title="My episode title"
  subtitle="Episode Subtitle"
  poster="/files/path/to/poster.png"
  chapters="/files/path/to/chapters.json"
  transcripts="/files/path/to/transcripts.json"
  playlist="/files/path/to/playlist.json"
  src="http://mysite.com/mymedia.mp3"
  size="1337"
  show="My show title"
  duration="03:33"
]
</code></pre>
<p>Use an existing post with a media enclosure that is provided from plugins like Blubrry:</p>
<pre><code>[podlove-web-player
  theme="default"
  config="default"
  post="1234"
]
</code></pre>
<p>Or in case you have our <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/podlove-podcasting-plugin-for-wordpress/" rel="ugc">Podlove Publisher</a> installed:</p>
<pre><code>[podlove-web-player
  theme="default"
  config="default"
  publisher="1234"
]
</code></pre>
<h4>2 Using WordPress Gutenberg Blocks</h4>
<p>You can choose between different references, like Podlove Publisher, Blocks or you can add the meta data manually. Right now the latter option is limited to a limited set of attributes, this will be expanded in further releases.</p>
<h4>3 Automatic Integration with Podcasting Engines</h4>
<p>If you are using Podlove Publisher you should be able to select it in the Publisher Player settings.<br />
In case you are still using Blubrry you can simply enable the automatic insertions on enclosures in the settings and choose the position.</p>
<h3>Help & Support</h3>
<p>If you encounter any issue with the plugin or want to request a specific feature please reach out to our <a href="https://community.podlove.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">Podlove Community</a>.</p>


Podlove Web Player

Next episode plays automatically all the time. No way to stop it. No community, no support. If it breaks, you are alone.

Horrible support

In combination wit the Podcast Publisher this is the most underused and underrated plugin for podcast publishing.

Thanks for your work!

Underrated plugin

The fast, flexible and responsive podcast player powered by podlove meta data.
