How to Edit This Wiki

This is a Pods Monster wiki powered by Dokuwiki, a free and open source wiki hosting solution.

Anyone can register with Pods Monster for free using an email address and start editing and creating pages. Only certain key pages, such as this one, are protected from editing.

For general syntax, see Formatting Syntax.

Creating a New Page

You can search the title of the page you want to create and then click the page name on the search results screen to create it. For consistency, episode titles should follow the format:

Episode (episode number)- (title)

Embedding

Pods Monster makes use of certain extensions to allow for easier embedding for YouTube, Spotify, and Libsyn content.

The formats for embeds are as follows:

YouTube

If a YouTube video's address is:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-CdAC9r934

or

https://youtu.be/z-CdAC9r934

Then you can embed it with:

{{youtube>z-CdAC9r934}}


Spotify

Click the three dot menu under the episode in Spotify, click Share, and then click “Embed episode.” Click Show code. You will see the following:

<iframe src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/episode/4gzFeiLAqgFYEL5ky9EqPl?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="232" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture"></iframe>

The relevant portion is the part that immediately follows “episode” in the URL, in this case 4gzFeiLAqgFYEL5ky9EqPl. Plug that into the appropriate area in the snippet below to embed the episode.

{{url>https://open.spotify.com/embed/episode/4gzFeiLAqgFYEL5ky9EqPl?utm_source=generator" 900,232}}

For a smaller embed, use:

{{url>https://open.spotify.com/embed/episode/4gzFeiLAqgFYEL5ky9EqPl?utm_source=generator" 250, 80}}

Please note that if you are not signed in to Spotify on the browser in which you access Pods Monster, or if your browser is incompatible with Spotify's embeds, then only the first thirty seconds of the episode will play. For this reason, it is usually better to use Libsyn or YouTube if available.

Libsyn

To embed Libsyn, first get the relevant information by clicking the “</>” button underneath the player and then finding the portion of the URL immediately after the ID. So, if the embed code is:

<iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/7529954/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/000000/" height="90" width="100%" scrolling="no"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe>

Then the relevant part to us is 7529954. Libsyn content works best on Pods Monster when embedded as follows with only the ID changed:

{{url>//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/7529954/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/000000/" 900,100}}

Adding Tags

Add tags that will appear at the end of articles. Clicking on the tag brings up a list of pages with the same tag.

{{tag>[bigfoot]}}

This creates the tag listed at the bottom of this page. You can have multiple tags by simply separating them with a space.
