Castpod - A Professional WordPress Theme for Audio Podcasts
Castpod is a podcast-focused WordPress theme that combines responsive design, retina-ready visuals, and extensive customization with fast performance and strong podcast-centric features, including RSS2 feed generation and WooCommerce support.
Responsive and Mobile Ready
You can rest assured that every pixel will respond as it should no matter if your visitors are on a desktop, tablet or a smartphone.
Looks Great on Retina Screens
The theme is HiDPI optimized and will look great on any retina-ready device. The icons are packed in a webfont and the CSS doesn’t contain any static images.
Customizer Options
The theme is packed with simple, yet useful options via the WordPress Customizer which previews your site in real-time. If you have extra requirements to fulfill, you can add your own Custom CSS.
WooCommerce Support
Start selling your products right away — it’s easy and fast with the help of the powerful WooCommerce plugin — it all fits nicely into our minimal design.
Implemented the right way: no template files, just hooks!

Showcase Your Podcast
Showcase your creativity, because the focus is on your work. You have multiple options when it comes to displaying audio content and the ability to generate a RSS2 feed for any podcast service provider (iTunes, Google Play, etc.).
1-Click-Importer
The theme has a useful importer that will set up your site to look like the online preview (without the shop). Posts, pages, menus, widgets, customizer options – everything is covered in a simple one click operation!
Clean Simple Code
Well written code allows developers to understand the theme and extend it with ease. Hooks are used to offer a better customization experience and the episode post type and podcast functionality are stored in a separate plugin for better separation and easy information management.
Optimized for Speed
This theme is highly optimized with mobile first techniques and it uses FontAwesome icons — making it extremely fast. The theme preview scores 98% on the page speed grade and it is faster than 95% of all tested websites — here are the results.
Translation Ready
The theme is ready to be translated in any language (support for RTL). We provide the .pot file so you can start right away with PoEdit. Also, the theme is fully compatible with the WPML plugin.
Docs and Great Support
The theme comes with a comprehensive documentation to get you started and fast support for questions or issues.
Outstanding Support
Of course, if anything doesn’t make sense, or you get stuck, we are right beside you to help with our top quality 5-star rated support. You’ll never feel like you are left in the dark by yourself – woohoo!

- A friend saw the site and he commented, saying “you are truly a jedi podcaster”... but my secret was the CastPod theme. As a bonus, the theme author is very responsive in providing support. - Nichlaus
