Seriously Simple Podcasting is great for getting your audio (or video) content out there and making it available for everyone to find, but often you want to add that little bit of extra value for your listeners by supplying them with a written transcript of your episodes. Sure – you can do this by pasting all the text in your episode content, or adding a manual link in there, but a more automated and altogether cleaner option would be really great. That is exactly what this plugin provides. Simply upload your transcript file (in any format) just like you would upload your podcast audio/video file and the link to download the transcript will appear underneath the episode media player with the rest of your episode details. ** Primary Seriously Simple Transcripts Add-On Features ** * Adds a new file upload field to your episodes for adding your transcript file * Adds a ‘Download transcript’ link alongside the rest of the episode details on your episodes * Adds a Gutenberg ‘Transcripts’ block * Adds an Elementor ‘Transcripts’ block * Adds a podcast:transcript tag to podcast RSS feeds **How to contribute** If you want to contribute to Seriously Simple Transcripts, you can [fork the GitLab repository](https://gitlab.com/castos/Seriously-Simple-Transcripts)– all pull requests will be reviewed and merged if they fit into the goals for the plugin. ## Schermafbeeldingen * [[ * The episode details fields with the transcript field included. * [[ * The ‘Download transcript’ link as it appears alongside your episode meta data. * [[ * Plugin automatically adds a podcast:transcript tag to your RSS feed. * [[ * Also, you can add a Gutenberg “Castos Transcripts” block. * [[ * Castos Transcripts block as it appears on your page. * [[ * There are a lot of customization options for the Castos Transcripts block. * [[ * Option to show or hide the transcripts from Castos Transcripts block in your RSS feed. ## Blokken Deze plugin voorziet 2 blokken. * Seriously Simple Transcript file settings Seriously Simple Transcripts sidebar file settings. * Castos Transcript Transcript of your episode.

In order to use this plugin you need to have at least v1.14.8 of [Seriously Simple Podcasting](https://www.seriouslysimplepodcasting.com/). If you do not have Seriously Simple Podcasting active or you are using a version older than v1.14.8 then this plugin will do nothing. ### What if I only want the ‘Download transcript’ link to appear for some episodes, but not others? The ‘Download transcript’ link will only appear on episodes to which you have uploaded a transcript file. If you don’t upload a file then the link will not appear. ### What file formats can I use for my transcript files? While PDF would be the most common file format for this kind of thing, you can upload absolutely any type of file that you like. ### What if I host my transcript files on a different server and not inside my WordPress installation? The transcript file works in exactly the same way as the podcast audio/video file– if you aren’t uploading it directly to your WordPress site, then all you need to do is paste the URL of the file into the ‘Transcript file’ field when editing your episode. ## Beoordelingen ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/58cfb1a7ad0c79ebb6e685fa285849eb92e16b2ea768bd256783e2125cda5221? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[I’m glad it exists, but…](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/im-glad-it-exists-but/)󠁿 [Azurite](https://profiles.wordpress.org/azurite/) 18 maart 2026 At the end of the day, it feels like this plugin is just a glorified accordion dropdown in the editor. Yes, you can add a transcript file (as in, a caption/subtitle file? At least, that’s what SRTs and VTTs are, usually, but the FAQs mention a PDF, and the plugin itself suggests TXT), but that has no impact whatsoever on the Transcript widget/block that shows up in your editor, which is just plain text. It adds a download link below the Castos Player widget. For some reason, mine had the open/close chevron show just fine in the editor, but on the published page, it rendered as incomplete HTML (the num-code for the character). Since there seems to be no connection between the subtitle FILE and the subtitle widget/block, I just replaced it on my podcast episode page with an Elementor Accordion widget, which works better for my purposes. The screenshots on the Installation page at out-of-date; the plugin does NOT show up in the block/widget selection as “Castos Transcripts” or even use the same icon( at least not in Elementor); it uses just the word “Transcripts” and is very basic in its functionality; you can’t change the icon used for the dropdown, but you can set the general Typography and Color, and you can opt to hide it from your RSS feed.
