Volt Radio – Catalog & Sticky Player for Music Licensing
Turn your WordPress site into a searchable, licensing-ready radio station for your entire catalog.
Overview
Volt Radio is a WordPress plugin that transforms your catalog into a beautiful, radio-style listening experience with a sticky player and deep metadata built for film, TV, game, and commercial licensing.
Upload or import your tracks, tag them with the right splits and PRO data, and Volt Radio does the rest—rendering a front-end library where supervisors, producers, and clients can browse, search, and audition your catalog like a private radio station.
Key Features
Radio-Style Front-End Library
- Grid or list of tracks with cover art, titles, and artists.
- Click-to-play overlay that feeds a sticky audio player at the bottom of the screen.
- Designed to feel like a streaming radio station dedicated to your catalog.
Catalog Built for Licensing Workflows
Each track is stored as a custom post type with fields for:
- Title, description, cover art, year released
- Artist(s), writer, label, imprint label
- Writer & publisher splits
- Master splits
- IPI and ISWC
- Duration, genre, tags, and audio URL
Perfect for music supervisors, libraries, labels, and publishers who need clean, consistent data on every track.
CSV Import & Export
- Import large catalogs using CSV templates with all key columns (art URL, year, artists, splits, PRO info, audio links, and more).
- Export your entire catalog to CSV for backup, reporting, or third-party systems.
- Import batches are tracked so you can see what was brought in from where.
Priority Ordering & Featured Tracks
- Built-in priority field and ordering logic (1 = top) so you can control which tracks appear first.
- Priority → menu order → date, giving you smart control over featured cuts, new releases, or “spotlight” tracks.
Brand-Ready Design & Theming
- Dark / Light theme toggle from the settings page.
- Custom CSS field for fine-tuned styling without hacking core files.
- Radio logo upload for consistent branding and social shares.
Social Meta & Story Defaults
- Automatic Open Graph/Twitter meta tags for each track
- Uses cover art or the radio logo for previews
- Uses track title, link, and excerpt or a default “blurb.”
- Default hashtags and default blurb options so your posts and promos stay consistent across platforms.
LinkedIn Integration (Built-In)
- Dedicated LinkedIn settings page to connect your LinkedIn App (client ID/secret + author URN).
- OAuth flow built in so you can authorize once, then trigger posting from your WordPress admin.
- Ideal for announcing new tracks, playlists, or catalog highlights directly to your professional network.
