Freedom Podcasting turns any WordPress site into a fully functional podcast publisher.

Features:

• Generates a standards-compliant iTunes / Podcast Index RSS feed at /?feed=fp-podcast (optionally also /?feed=podcast)
• Adds episode-level metadata to posts: audio URL, episode number, season, type, explicit flag
• [fp_player] shortcode embeds a clean HTML5 audio player anywhere in your content
• Settings page under Settings > Freedom Podcasting for show-level podcast metadata
• Optional one-click connection to FreedomPodcasting.com for managed audio hosting — upload files directly from the post editor

RSS feed is compatible with:

• Apple Podcasts / iTunes
• Spotify
• Google Podcasts
• Pocket Casts
• Overcast
• Any standard podcast directory

External Services

This plugin can optionally connect to the FreedomPodcasting API to upload and host podcast audio. This feature is entirely optional and is only active after you explicitly authorise the connection from the Settings page.

When connected, the following data is transmitted to FreedomPodcasting servers (https://api.freedompodcasting.com):

• Podcast show metadata (title, description, author, artwork URL)
• Audio file uploads

No data is sent until you connect your site. You can disconnect at any time from Settings > Freedom Podcasting, which immediately revokes the access token.
