A Player That Never Stops

Sticky player Speed Queue

Audio keeps playing while listeners browse. The player sits at the bottom of the screen as they move between show pages, artist pages and search.

Speed, volume, queue and position carry across pages, and returning listeners resume where they stopped.

FAQ

WordPress Podcast Theme FAQ

Common questions from people planning a podcast or music website.

Not yet. The theme is in development and expected in late 2026. Tap Notify me when it's live, enter your email and we will send one email the day it goes on sale. Signing up is free and does not commit you to buying.

It is built for people running an audio platform, not a single show. Podcast networks, independent record labels and publishers of audiobooks, meditations or course audio are the main fit. Each creator gets their own page, catalogue and earnings on a site you own.

Yes. Podcasts are organised into shows, seasons and episodes, and music into artists, albums and tracks. Both play through the same sticky player, go into the same playlists and can be free, premium or sold individually, so a label and a podcast network can share one site.

Yes. Every show gets its own RSS feed, built automatically from the episodes you publish, which you can submit to the podcast apps listeners already use. Approval is up to each directory. Premium episodes stay on your site only.

Combine several revenue streams: monthly subscriptions for premium episodes, one-off sales of albums, audiobooks and bonus episodes, and tips on show pages. If you host other creators, take a share of their earnings or charge them a creator plan to publish. We take no platform commission.

No. You pay $99 once for the theme and keep what your site earns. Payments go to your own payment account, and any split with your creators is a rule you set in the admin, not a fee we charge.

Yes, that is a core design goal. The player sits at the bottom of the screen and keeps playing as listeners move between show pages, artist pages and search. Returning listeners resume where they stopped.

Yes. Each creator gets a dashboard to upload episodes or tracks, add artwork, chapters and transcripts, and schedule releases. It also shows plays, followers and earnings. You decide whether new uploads publish straight away or wait for your approval.

The aim is no. The player, catalogue, playlists, premium access, tips, downloads, RSS feeds and creator dashboards are part of the theme. You still need normal WordPress hosting with enough storage for your audio.

A one-time licence with 6 months of support and updates, unlimited installs on sites you own, free install and setup plus video tutorials, and a 14-day money-back guarantee. Pages are Elementor-ready for the free version of Elementor. PremiumPress is rated 4.6 out of 5 on Trustpilot.
