Embed Using Gutenberg

WordPress is a great website builder, but it uses a variety of themes which can cause confusion when embedding your Buzzsprout players. Don't worry, we will break down how to embed your episodes using Gutenberg in WordPress!

Embedding Using Gutenberg

First, make sure the Buzzsprout Plugin is installed and set up within your WordPress account, then click into the post or page where you want to embed the episode player. 

Next, hover over or click the post and you should see a small black box appear. That box will allow you to drop a block into your post. Now, search for and select the Classic block. This will bring in the Classic Editor! 
Locate and click the Add Media button within the classic player.
Now, you will see the media window pop open. Select Buzzsprout Podcasting on the left side of the window and then select the episode you want to drop in.
You will see the embed code drop into the post! Just save your changes and preview the page to see the player live!
