How to Post to a Podcast Using Folders

Post to a Podcast Using Folders

Start by creating your podcast. Once your podcast has been created, you can create a folder that will auto-post. When you create or edit a Voice Folder, Audio Folder or Video Folder you can select a podcast which will be automatically posted to when that folder receives new media.

Once you create the folders, you can assign a podcast which will be automatically posted to when new content appears in the folder.  This way, you can allow your friends and website guests to add media to your podcasts without needing to go through you.

To Automatically Podcast Using a New Folder:

  1. Click on the "Audio" or "Video" tab
  2. Click on the "New Audio Folder", "New Voice Folder" or "New Video Folder" button (on the left sidebar)
  3. Under the "Post to Blog or Podcast" section, select "Post to Podcast"

  4. Select the "Podcast" you want to auto-post to
  5. Click "Create New Folder"

To Automatically Podcast Using an Existing Folder:

  1. Click on the "Audio" or "Video" tab
  2. Select the audio, voice or video folder (on the left sidebar)
  3. Click "Edit Folder" (under the folder)
  4. Under the "Post to Blog or Podcast" section, select "Post to Podcast"
  5. Select the "Podcast" you want to auto-post to

  6. Click "Update Folder"

How Do Folders Work with Podcasting

Folders allow you to organize your audio and video media so that you don't end up with one large list of media but instead you can group related media items together.

Usually you would use folders manually by creating them and moving your uploaded content into them manually.  There are two features on the PubClip service, however, that allow you to create new media and have it automatically assigned to a folder:

  1. Web Recorder Mini

    The Web Recorder Mini allows you to select the Audio Folder and Video Folder where the newly created media will be placed.

    Put a Web Recorder Mini on your website which lets visitors record audio and video testimonials for you. The testimonials can automatically be posted to your podcast.

  2. Voice Folders

    Voice Folders are actually a special type of Audio Folder that receive their own phone number.

    Create a Voice Folder which lets you and your visitors leave a message without ever entering a pin code, listening to a menu, or requiring a computer! The messages can automatically be posted to your podcast.
