Pinecast WordPress Sync Plugin

This plugin allows you to sync your Pinecast podcast (or any JSONFeed-compatible podcast) with your WordPress blog.

Please see Pinecast’s support website for more information.

After installing, visit Settings > Pinecast to add feeds. Add your Pinecast RSS feed URL (found on your podcast dashboard), along with the podcast’s name (for your reference), categories that you wish to be applied to each episode’s post, and whether you’d like to include episode artwork in the posts. Save changes.

Once your podcast is added, you can press the Sync button to import episodes. Episodes will sync automatically every hour.

1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/pinecast-wp directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
3. Follow the instructions at the top of the screen.
