Video Tutorial: Getting started with Podlove Publisher

Compatible Feeds

The Publisher makes it easy to create highly expressive, efficient and super compatible podcast feeds with fine grained control over client behavior (e.g. GUID control to replace faulty episodes and for clients to reload) supporting all important meta data.

Multi-Format Publishing

The Publisher also makes multi-format publishing – embracing all modern and legacy audio and video codecs – a snap. By adopting simple file name conventions, the plugin allows the podcaster to provide individual feeds for certain use cases or audiences without adding work for the podcaster during the publishing process.

Optimized Web Player

The Publisher also comes with integrated with the Podlove Web Player plugin (which you do not need to install separately) and fully support its advanced options including multiple audio (MP4 AAC, MP3, Vorbis, Opus) and video (MP4 H.264, WebM, Theora) format support for web browsers. This Web Player is fully HTML5 compatible (but provides Flash fallback for ancient environments) and is ready for all touch based clients too.

Chapter Support

The Publisher also makes it easy to publish chapter information in the player to make access to structured episodes even easier. Full support for linking directly to any part of your podcast on the web with instant playback included.

Flexible Templates

To round it all up, a flexible template system enables you to published Podcasts in a defined fashion and change the style at any time without having to touch your individual postings later on.

And this is just the beginning. We have a rich roadmap that will bring even more interesting features: integration with helpful services, much improved timeline metadata support (show notes) and much more.

How can I help the project?

The continued success of Open Source project relies on the community. There are many ways you can help:
Episode title in API now follows the same rules as in RSS feed. There’s a new field ’title_clean’ for accessing the specifically set plain episode title, but that might be null in some cases, so it’s better to default the ’title’ attribute to the usual rules.

This is one of the most solid podcast plugins out there. It's cleanly coded, not a bunch of jenky ads all over the place, and does the job very well. One thing I'd love to see is the ability to have a Dashboard Widget of my stats when I login to my WordPress Dashboard (as opposed to the Podlove Dashboard). Plus, it would be amazing to have a way to have weekly podcast stats emailed to contributors! Thanks so much for your continued development of this fantastic plugin!
