Color Picker

Multi Episode Player

To change the color of the selected episode on the Multi Episode Player, select the Multiple Episodes Preview box. This will apply the Multi Player field on the left.

Click the Color Block to open the RGB selector. Enter your color code, pick a color, or use the eye dropper to select a color from an image on your screen. Once you select the color, click Save to apply the changes.

Artwork

IMPORTANT: If you are looking to change the podcast cover that appears on a player for an individual episode, this is completed by changing the Cover Image in the individual Episode.

Here you have the option to disable your podcast cover from appearing on individual players. If you are using the Multi Episode Player, Artwork will continue to appear in the list of episodes, but not for the episode being played.

Simply select the Hide Artwork option to apply this feature.

Hide Share and Download Buttons

If you want to prevent listeners from sharing your podcast or downloading episodes from the episode players, you can check the Hide options to remove these buttons from all players.

Change Default Player Text

Episode players have default text that reads: "Season, Episode, and Episode Summary." These indicate the season number and episode number and provide information about the episode.

You can change the default text to read as you like. Expand the Text Updates menu to access the text fields and add custom text. Enter the text you would prefer to appear on the screen. Saved changes will apply to all players, both on your PodOps Podcast Website and those embedded in a site such as WordPress, etc.

After making any changes, click Save Player to apply the changes.
