How to use the embeddable podcast player with custom colors


Now you can customize the colors for your show's embeddable players. This is especially helpful for podcasters with a website who want the embeddable podcast player to match their colors and branding.



There are two ways to customize your embed colors:


  1. Customise the default color for all of your embeds
  2. Customise the color of an individual embed


How to customize the color of your default embeds


This will change all existing embeds that have not been individually customized.


  1. Go to the Episodes page
  2. Click on the Embeds menu
  3. Select Embed Player Settings option


Episodes > Embeds > Embed Player Settings

  1. Pick a default Background and Primary Color or a Theme Preset
  2. Preview the color on the example embeds below
  3. Click the Save Changes button



All embeds will now use that color palette, except those embeds that have been individually customized.
