Occasionally, you may want to embed an audio player, song, playlist, or podcast into your site or your course materials.
Luckily, using our iFramely integration, you're able to do exactly that!
Introduction
By default, Podia turns your audio files into players, so people can stream them on Podia. They can also download the file if you enable that option.
If you’d rather use an external audio player, you can embed one from services like Spotify or SoundCloud. This is useful if you want to share a playlist, a podcast, or an audio file hosted on those platforms.
With our iFramely integration, you can embed an external player and offer a stream-only option.
Supported platforms: Soundcloud, Spotify, Deezer, Apple Podcasts, Podbean, DjPod
Embedding an audio or podcast player
To embed an audio player from an external platform, you’ll need the direct link to the song, file, podcast, or playlist you want to use. Then, paste that link into Podia using the embed option.

Navigate to where you want to embed your external audio player, such as your site, course lessons, blog posts, etc.
Only rich-text fields support embedded media. Plain text fields (like product names, titles, or subtext) do not support embedded media.
Use the Embed option available in the text editor's quick menu.
Paste the unique URL of the audio player you want to embed, then click Insert.
