## Àpèjúwe

> This plugin is an add-on for [Seriously Simple Podcasting](https://www.seriouslysimplepodcasting.com/)
> and requires at least **v1.14.8** of Seriously Simple Podcasting in order to work.

Seriously Simple Podcasting is great for getting your audio (or video) content out
there and making it available for everyone to find, but often you want to add that
little bit of extra value for your listeners by supplying them with a written transcript
of your episodes. Sure Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – you can do this by pasting all the text 
in your episode content, or adding a manual link in there, but a more automated 
and altogether cleaner option would be really great. That is exactly what this plugin
provides.

Simply upload your transcript file (in any format) just like you would upload your
podcast audio/video file and the link to download the transcript will appear underneath
the episode media player with the rest of your episode details.

** Primary Seriously Simple Transcripts Add-On Features **

 * Adds a new file upload field to your episodes for adding your transcript file
 * Adds a ‘Download transcript’ link alongside the rest of the episode details on
   your episodes
 * Adds a Gutenberg ‘Transcripts’ block
 * Adds an Elementor ‘Transcripts’ block
 * Adds a podcast:transcript tag to podcast RSS feeds

**How to contribute**

If you want to contribute to Seriously Simple Transcripts, you can [fork the GitLab repository](https://gitlab.com/castos/Seriously-Simple-Transcripts)
Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – all pull requests will be reviewed and merged if they fit into 
the goals for the plugin.

## FAQ

### What version of Seriously Simple Podcasting does this plugin require?

In order to use this plugin you need to have at least v1.14.8 of [Seriously Simple Podcasting](https://www.seriouslysimplepodcasting.com/).
If you do not have Seriously Simple Podcasting active or you are using a version
older than v1.14.8 then this plugin will do nothing.

### What if I only want the ‘Download transcript’ link to appear for some episodes, but not others?

The ‘Download transcript’ link will only appear on episodes to which you have uploaded
a transcript file. If you donÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t upload a file then the link will 
not appear.

### What file formats can I use for my transcript files?

While PDF would be the most common file format for this kind of thing, you can upload
absolutely any type of file that you like.

### What if I host my transcript files on a different server and not inside my WordPress installation?

The transcript file works in exactly the same way as the podcast audio/video file
Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – if you arenÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t uploading it directly to your WordPress
site, then all you need to do is paste the URL of the file into the ‘Transcript 
file’ field when editing your episode.

At the end of the day, it feels like this plugin is just a glorified accordion dropdown
in the editor. Yes, you can add a transcript file (as in, a caption/subtitle file?
At least, thatÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s what SRTs and VTTs are, usually, but the FAQs mention
a PDF, and the plugin itself suggests TXT), but that has no impact whatsoever on
the Transcript widget/block that shows up in your editor, which is just plain text.
It adds a download link below the Castos Player widget. For some reason, mine had
the open/close chevron show just fine in the editor, but on the published page, 
it rendered as incomplete HTML (the num-code for the character). Since there seems
to be no connection between the subtitle FILE and the subtitle widget/block, I just
replaced it on my podcast episode page with an Elementor Accordion widget, which
works better for my purposes. The screenshots on the Installation page at out-of-
date; the plugin does NOT show up in the block/widget selection as “Castos Transcripts”
or even use the same icon (at least not in Elementor); it uses just the word “Transcripts”
and is very basic in its functionality; you canÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t change the icon
used for the dropdown, but you can set the general Typography and Color, and you
can opt to hide it from your RSS feed.
