How to embed your Cloudcast into WordPress

Leave a reply

Have you ever tried embedding your Cloudcast into your WordPress blog with no success? If so, we just found a solution for you.

Typically, you cannot add Flash, iframe, or Javascript based objects in WordPress.com (because you’re not allowed to use such codes in wp.com blogs, for security reasons).  Provided you transform the embed code into the appropriate shortcode, this will work in text widgets (for your sidebar/bottombar), as well as posts and pages (in the HTML editor).

Have a look at the image below to find out how:

The new Preview feature lets you listen to a sample of a Cloudcast

2 Replies

It’s been a few weeks since we launched our Preview feature which lets you hear short samples from a Cloudcast you want to listen to. Thank you so much to all of you who took the time to write to us and leave all that great feedback.

If you haven’t noticed it already it’s because it is a small, subtle change on the website but with huge impact on music discovery.

Hover your mouse over one of the Play buttons on the website for a moment and you’ll start to hear clips from the Cloudcast. Take a look at the image below to get a better idea:



Our vision at Mixcloud is to help connect listeners all over the world to some of the best and most relevant radio shows, mixes and Podcasts for them. This awesome new feature helps you “Preview” Cloudcasts all over the site more easily than ever to help you discover what’s right for you.

Your feedback is always welcome so leave your comments in the box below, on Facebook at www.facebook.com/mixcloud or tweet us @mixcloud.

Enjoy the Preview!

Our New Dashboard

6 Replies

Hello Mixclouders,

It’s been a good while since our last blog but we’re confident that this will be worth the wait. Today we are very pleased, excited, and downright hands-in-the-air-happy to announce the launch of Mixcloud’s brand new Dashboard!


Here at Mixcloud HQ we are passionate about helping our users personalise their listening experience, so we’ve tried to make it as easy as possible for them to find out what’s going on in their radio community. Now you can find all the activity of all the users you follow in one (beautiful) place. See what your friends are listening to and posting to Facebook, or check out what Moby listens to on a Tuesday.

But that’s not all: the Dashboard is also a one-stop shop to find your Groups, Playlists, Favorites, Uploads and (of course) the Hot List.

Log in to Mixcloud and check it out. And, as ever, do send us your feedback, either in the comments below, our support forum, or on Facebook. We aim to please you (yes, You!)
