This Podcast Page Add-On is designed to give you a clean, flexible, future-proof podcast setup. It’s easy to launch and you can switch between static and dynamic setup any time. You can use it as a standalone podcast website, or as an add-on with any other Showit website template.
You have access to the following page templates:
In addition, you also received Blog-based versions of the Podcast Home, Archive, and Single Episode pages. These are designed for users who want to connect their Showit podcast template to WordPress and publish episodes dynamically.
You do not need to use all pages.
You’ll choose the setup that fits your current needs.
Before editing anything, choose how you want your podcast to work.
There are two valid setups: static and dynamic. Neither is “better”, they’re just different.
This option is best if you want a simple, minimal podcast presence without managing a blog or learning WordPress.

This section covers the only Showit editing skills you need to customize this podcast template.
You do not need to learn all of Showit.
If you can edit text, colors, images, and links, you’re set.
For anything more technical, you’ll be linked to optional in-depth tutorials.
👉 Before editing anything, we strongly recommend watching Showit’s 30-minute beginner walkthrough:

That’s it. Everything else is optional.
To edit the text & images:
Editing background image/color:
** To edit the Hero section of the Soft Growth Podcast template – use a free tool like remove.bg to remove the background from your own photo and save it as transparent PNG. Then replace the hero image with that one. Then set the background behind the transparent portrait to either a neutral color or a subtle texture (I recommend Pexels or Unsplash for free stock images and textures)
You can change most of the template’s colors and fonts to your own at once by going to the design settings. Here’s how to do that.
Best practice is to first go through the page design and see which of your brand colors and fonts work best where (which font & font size works best for headings, subheadings, paragraphs; which colors are best for buttons and which are for backgrounds). Then go to the design settings. Update these and then go through the site again and check everything because some parts need manual edits.
To manually edit the color of a section, shape, button, or text element just select the element you want and use the color picker in right side panel. Same goes for fonts, just select the text element or button and use the right side panel to select your font in the drop down.
Here’s how to add your custom fonts to Showit.
You’ll edit buttons to either:
To add a link to your button: Click the button you want, open Click Actions in the right side panel, and choose where it links.
Showit Help – Linking Buttons & Text
In this template you can embed signup forms from any third party tools like:
What you need to do is go to your email newsletter tool (or CRM), create a form there and publish it, then find a button that says something like “get code” or “embed the form” and copy the embed code. Then just drag an Embed Code element on your section in Showit and paste your code in there.
For link/action after submission connect it to the Form Submitted page (you got it inside this template!)

This section explains what each page is designed to do, what you should customize, and what you can safely leave as-is.
You can use this template pages either:
The purpose of each page stays the same in both cases.
This is your main podcast landing page. It’s the page where your first-time visitor lands and decides if this podcast feels like it’s for them. It should clearly explain what the podcast is about and who it’s for, without feeling heavy or salesy. You want to guide them on where to start listening, make it easy to find Spotify or Apple Podcasts links, and optionally invite them to learn more or stay connected with an email signup or explore something else you offer.
The Podcast Archive is basically your “all episodes” page. It’s not a must-have, and you can totally delete it if you don’t need it yet. This page is more for people who already like your podcast and want to dig around — scroll, search, and pick exactly what they’re in the mood for. If you only have a few episodes right now, you probably won’t use it much, and that’s completely fine. It really becomes useful once you have lots of episodes and regular listeners who come back often and want an easy way to explore everything you’ve published.
This page represents one episode. You can totally skip it and just link directly to Spotify or Apple Podcasts. But if you want a place to share extra context, transcripts, links, resources, or even your own products or services, it’s really useful. It gives each episode its own little home where listeners can go deeper while they’re already engaged with what you’re saying.
This page is optional. It’s for when your podcast is not live yet but you want to link your domain on your socials. It makes sense while you’re preparing for launch and want to look professional.
This page appears after someone submits a form.
This page shows when a visitor lands on a broken or outdated link.
