What it does

Putting a live radio stream on a WordPress site usually means juggling embed codes and players that look out of place on phones. This plugin gives you an HTML5 player that handles MP3 and AAC streams from Shoutcast and Icecast servers. You add your stream URL and the player pulls in the station name, song title, artist photo and categories on its own, so listeners can see what is playing without you updating anything by hand.

The player comes in two versions. A sticky player stays visible as visitors move around the site, while the standard version can be placed inside posts and pages. The layout is responsive and works on iOS and Android devices as well as desktop browsers. For stations that sell airtime or sponsorships, you can show one or more commercial banners per station, and the included PSD files and style options help you match the player to your branding.

Best for
