I am very interested in buying it, but I have many doubts about this purchase, with the purchase of Wpcast – Audio Podcast WordPress Theme, does it include the license of Wpcast and WPB Bakery?
Yes sir, WPBakery is included (with a custom version for the theme). Regards
Hi, I purchased this theme and installed it no problem and it worked just fine and then my computer crashed and now it doesn’t seem to work. I had changed some of my domain settings and when I go to activate the license it says that the purchase code is verified but when I initially installed it, it gave me a list of plugins to install (this worked fine the first time), now however, I don’t have some of the functionality that I did previously. I tried reinstalling the themes but that doesn’t seem to work and now I’m at a loss as I’m not sure which plugins I should be installing because I initially just used the suggested ones that were provided with the theme but now they’re gone.
Hi, if this happens it means your license results still active on the first installation. Please contact us via email ar support@qantumthemes.com and provide your domain URL where you are using the theme now, your purchase code and eventually the WordPress username and password for WordPress.
Thanks
Hi, I am defining my purchase of this theme, I have some more questions: 1) WpCast is compatible with Spreaker? 2) Can the built-in player run podcasts from Spreaker or other servers? I check this because I don’t want to upload the MP3s to my own server and prefer to run them from Spreaker or Anchor.fm 3) I need to include advertising banners in the frontend, is that possible? 4) Is the Give plugin to donate to the entire site or can it be configured so that donations reach each individual author? Thank you, Alfredo
Hi! 1) Yes 2) Yes, you can import the Spreaker podcasts using PowerPress plugin and play the episodes from the theme’s player 3) We don’t add any ads functionality because there are tons of plugins and platforms, you are free to do that but is not something the theme helps you with, nor the support. Please notice that WPcast uses ajax (as any other website or theme with a non-stop music player) so you cannot use AdSense (is contrary to the TOS) but you can use any other affiliation program like amazon or similar 4) The donations can be done using the GIVE plugin. With Give you can make different donation forms. I think you can do easily what you want. For a complete answer you should check the Give donation plugin page

I love it! Incredible. Well done!. Question… I wish to edit the Home Page Slider button REAL ALL. I simply want to edit this to another language. I already changed WPress to another language, but it did not change it. I cannot find it anywhere to do that simple edit. Please help. Thank you!
Please ntoe that some plugins can have some translation files as well, same procedure but it needs the name of the translation to contain the name of the plugin folder (as explained in the manual).
You don’t need tot ranslate every string, only the ones you want to change.
If you need more help please contact us via helpdesk

This did NOT work. You’ve suggested to: Select and Open the pot file from the languages folder. Language folder? There is NO Language folder at: wp-content/themes/wpcast There is mention of Language folder in the theme archive editing, but no folder. In the theme package, zip files, there is no language folder to open on POEDIT. I tried plugins like Weplot but it cost a ridiculous amount of money for something you include. Please help. Thank you
“there is no language folder”
I took a video where you can see I download the product, unzip it and the language folder is inside.
The languages translation file is a basic requirement for a theme to be on Themeforest.
In this video you can see the folder is there
https://www.dropbox.com/s/3v0dmmibhd4hf19/crecinos.mov?dl=0You do NOT need to spend a single cent to translate the theme, just need to spend 5 minutes to read the manual and, if still you don’t understand the Poedit translation functionality, check on the official Wordpress documentation.
This is basic WordPress stuff sir, I’m glad to guide you but please follow the steps and look carefully into your folders.
Also, you need the folder of the theme in your local computer to do this.
This is all explained in the documentation too.
Hi, I very much like your theme but I have a question. Is it possible to link a audio live stream (from Wowza in my case) to the header player?
Thanks : )
Hello sir, if the stream is mp3 or aac you can do that. Ayway, for a radio station, we have other themes that have more specific functions.
Ok I’ll look into them, thanks again for the reply : )
I’m interested in using your template. My podcast episodes are on Spreaker. Can I use their plugin to publish the episodes on this site? Thanks in advance for your reply
Hello! Sure, with the free plugin PowerPress you can import every episode from Spreaker and play them through the theme’s player.
For the correct integration please find this page

Hi, I am interested in the theme for build a podcast network. I want to know what is the process for an author to upload their own episodes? Does each author or only the administrator? Donations are for the network in general or for a particular author? Can I play audios that are stored on a server like Spotify? Integrates with Woocommerce? Thank you
Hello!
1) Spotify is a company not a server
Podcasts can anyway be stored in your own server or also imported and played from external podcasting services as Blubrry and similar. You can’t play podcasts from Spotify in a custom player, they block this possibility with every possible technical tool, because they are not a hosting company and they make money only when you play from their app and site. Same for Soundcloud, Mixcloud and Youtube, they are all NOT podcasting platforms.
2) Creating a podcast https://wpcast.qantumthemes.xyz/manual/knowledge-base/5-01-creating-a-podcast/
You can create new authors and they can easily create their own podcasts.
you can also use the free PowerPress plugin to automatically import every podcast from a specific source /you only need the RSS feed of the podcast to import).
3) WooCommerce: there is no integration, after checking about 500 of the most famous podcasts of the world there were only about 10 selling stuff, and they were not doing it on their own site, so this integration appeared to be pretty aleatory.
Regards
Thanks for your answer. I was looking at the demo and saw that you have an option for sponsors: how does that option work?
On the other hand, I wanted to know if you have any place in the theme to place ads or if this theme is compatible with any ads plugin.
Thanks
the sponsors block is a gallery, not a custom plugin. The non-stop music player requires an ajax functionality. Your ads integration needs to work fine with an ajax-loading website or you won’t be able to put ads on any site with similar features.
Where can I see websites using this theme?
Just found a couple for you, can’t say they are the best results but I just found these first results on google. I’ve seen many very unique and spectacular ones, but actually we don’t store these information so I just did a quick search.

Hello, that is not theme territory stuff sir, yo uneed to manage this with plugins. Regards
I can’t post a question in your support forum. It says my product key is invalid. This is despite me previously posting a question with an account on the forum. For some reason the product key was removed from the account and I can no longer add it back. vu_vuzela
Hello sir, we noticed Envato API having problems in th elast week, because of a higher load in the number of requests probably. Other 2 customers had this problem but it was solved after a couple of hours.
You can:
1) Retry now, and it can probably work already 2) Contact us via email at support@qantumthemes.com, providing your purchase code and forum username. We will do it for you.
You can also use the same email to request support so we cut the time.
I’m sorryf or the inconvenience sir thanks and have a nice day!
My client migrated the site to new hosting. The audio tracks are not playing on the new site. I went to the old site and they are still playing there. I went in to edit to see where I was auto adding them at the bottom, that option is no longer there. Can you send a link to show me how I add the audio track to the header in the podcast. Can you also let me know why they would not work in new site? I checked permalinks and those are all good.
Hello, you need to rewrite the old url to the new url in the database. You can use “better search replace” plugin to replace the old url with the new one in the database
How do you remove the views count in the header player?
Hello!
Sure, you can do it in
Settings > Reaktions > Enable views count
Uncheck the item and save.

https://wpcast.qantumthemes.xyz/manual/knowledge-base/support/thank you and have a nice day!
I had tried that amd it did not work.
I understand, thanks for your feedback. I’m afraid then your case requires the attention of our developers, which are available via helpdesk as linked here:
https://wpcast.qantumthemes.xyz/manual/knowledge-base/support/You’ll receive support tomorrow morning (now here is sunday night so the developers are not at work).
Thanks for your kind colaboration Best regards
I got it. You have to do one by one. Is there anyway to get the counter to start at zero? And then reset? Maybe once we add a real domain name?
Is this theme multisite compatible?
No, sorry
Hello! If I have my podcast hosted on another platform like BuzzSprout or Anchor.fm, do you guys support those audio players/embeds? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I’m new to this. Thank you so much!
Hello, we have various users importing their podcasts from those sources, using the compatible and free PowerPres splugin. Our documentation covers the setup and you’ll have no problems with that.

Just to inform: the plugin to load pages via ajax mess with some dynamic content, like forms, wich are not loaded at first, making necessary to manually reload the page so the form appear.
It means that those plugins are not compatible with ajax page loading sir. Is not a problem of the Ajax page loading itself, is a matter of specific compatibility. The plugin Contact Form 7 instead, works fine.

Hey! Thanks for this! Amazing as usual!
Could we please get an option to include co-hosts or “sponsored” podcast episode types.
The co-hosts could actually be multiple authors.
Thanks and have a great one!
It would also be cool to have 15 second skip and speed settings on the player!
Hello! 1) About multiple authors: I understand the requirement but, for as many podcasting websites we have seen (literally hundreds, for sure more than 1.5 thousand) the ones with co hosted episodes have a link to the other hosts with the names, and is manually added. WordPress structure has a 1 – 1 link between content and author, it cannot be 1 content 3 authors or similar. So, this is not technically the right approach.
Instead, you can manually quote the authors and link them in the post content.
The theme also provides Page Builder shortcodes to display a nice author card, large or small.
2) Skip: this was already a feature planned to be added, which has been actually frozen. I admit I like it myself so will discuss it with my colleagues in the next meeting.
Thanks
Good morning. There is no “switch” for this as it’s a template made like this, as in the demo, but you can add this CSS to hide it:
.tax-qtserie .wpcast-featured-post {display: none !important;}

The MailChimp newsletter sign up does not work. I have integrated it. I have set the list ID. But when I try to sign up, it keeps saying “that email is not valid”. We have tried 15 different email addresses. Here is the site: https://parentspriestsgenerals.com/
I’m sorry sir but MailChimp is not our company and the widget is not our product, so I’m not able to help with this. What I can do is suggest to check your plugin settings or contact Mailchimp about your issue.
Also, please use the helpdesk for your further requests, as you’ll be in contact with a more qualified referent than me, as I’m a marketing manager and this is not our designed support channel.
Thanks!
Actually, you are mistaken. It is a theme conflict. The parameters set in your theme are incorrect. I had to go and remove them and just add a generic MailChimp form. I will write to the developers to notify of this flaw and see if they can correct it – since what is there is not so pretty now.
Ehm…. our theme doesn’t have parameters, it just adds CSS to the form. Actually, if you imported the demo, you can actually have settings that are not correct for your specific email list, but these are dynamic things that are part of the demo and shouldn’t be changed in the source code.
If there is something I’m missing here, please let me know. What I know for sure is that them theme only styles the widget and doesn’t do anything else with the Mailchimp form.

Howdy Qantum, looking to purchase. But I am having some issues with the search functionality in the menu. A separate, white sidebar appears when the search button is clicked. Using Chrome Version 81.0.4044.113 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Hello, it seems this bug was introduced in the latest theme udpate. Is a very small issue, we will publish a theme update in about an hour.
Thank you for noticing! Wish you a great day
From a user experience standpoint, it is a big issue. Will purchase once fixed.
Indeed a crucial fact that we alrady fixed with the maximum urgency.
The demo has been updated and the theme as well.
If you still see it in the demo, please make sure to clear the cache (our server uses a CDN so you may have caching headers stored in the browser).
Thanks again for your kind notification and wish you a nice day!
Great theme for podcasts !
Thanks! Solved the issue mentioned before? Please make sure to update every plugin (more info are in the documentation)
regards
Yes, problem solved 
Hi there looks great, does this support hosting from transistor.fm?
Hello! This theme can import any podcast RSS feed which have a regular feed, using the free plugin PowerPress.
Our documentation covers the plugin setup and compatibility settings for the theme.
I never heard of transistor but from their website it looks like any other regular podcasting platform (as anchor.fm, blubrry and others) so I’d say it has no problems.
If you encounter any issue, our support will gladly provide support to solve them.
regards
