Schedule an episode in Seriously Simple Podcasting

Scheduling a podcast episode in Seriously Simple Podcasting is just like scheduling a regular post in WordPress.

  1. In the Episode editor in WordPress, Look for the Publish panel on the right-hand side (in Block Editor) or the Publish meta box (in Classic Editor). Select the desired date and time for your post to be published.
  2. After selecting the desired publish date and time, the Publish button will change to Schedule. Press Schedule

Note: Scheduling an episode in WordPress will sync that episode to Castos (if connected) in a scheduled state for the same release time/date (make sure to set your time zone in your Account Settings).

Draft episodes currently do not sync to Castos, even if an episode file has been uploaded.
