Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Chapcast – Podcast Chapters
Only if you use automatic placement and want chapters directly under that player — then put other blocks above the Audio block. If you use manual placement ([chapcast_player]), put the shortcode wherever you like (e.g. right after the Audio block in the middle of the page).
Each episode stores its own chapter list. You can edit chapters directly on a media file (Media Library → audio file → Podcast chapters), but those chapters only show when the media file is viewed on its own attachment page — they no longer leak onto episodes that share the same audio file. Since 1.1.7 chapters are read strictly from the post; this prevents stale chapters from old episodes appearing on newly cloned posts.
No. Chapters are entered in the WordPress editor. This keeps the plugin simple and works with any audio format supported by the browser.
By default, the meta box and front-end player apply to Posts, Pages, and the podcast post type when Seriously Simple Podcasting (or another plugin) registers it. If your episodes use a different post type slug, add it with the chapcast_post_types filter. I use chapters on the media file but the episode shows no chapters Since 1.1.7 chapters are read strictly from the post, not from the audio attachment. Enter chapters on the episode itself in the Podcast chapters meta box. The attachment-level chapter list still exists for editing media files directly, but it is no longer used as a fallback on posts — this prevents stale rows from old episodes appearing on newly cloned posts that share an audio file. I don’t see the Podcast chapters box in the block editor Open the Options (⋮) menu or the Plugins / sidebar panels — meta boxes may appear below the editor or in a collapsible panel depending on your WordPress version and theme.
Yes. On first load after upgrade, post meta _spc_chapters / _spc_audio_url_override and option spc_auto_append are migrated to the new chapcast_* keys automatically.
