I'm playing around with your free player and I have a few questions before I purchase the Pro version.
On the free version, when I choose the boxed version for single posts, it still only displays the floated version.
Also, it would be helpful if you had the option to automatically display the player at the top of each post or at the bottom. This way, I can just add the mp3 URL in the player and fill out the fields and it will automatically display the player in my chosen location (I prefer at the end of the post though others prefer it at the beggining) without having to use the shortcode or Elementor widget.
What's the purpose of importing all of my episodes into RSS feed importer? It works just fine and lists all my episodes but what for? That's like an entirely separate page of just episodes of which I have over 1,000 episodes. I'm naturally curious as to the purpose because maybe I'm missing something.
Finally, I'm switch my theme to Astra, which is similar in nature to my current theme Customizr Pro, which is no longer being supported. It's highly customizable and the Pro version comes with Elementor, which I know plays well with your player.
I use a grid layout for the front page with an excerpt and read more tag to open the single post page. Under each excerpt, I currently have the PowerPress player. This allows users to understand that this is a podcast not just a blog and they can stream from the front page and decide if they want to read more. I removed the download button from the excerpt player otherwise it's the same as the player on the post. If you want to download, you have to open the actual post and scroll to the player. Then again, your sticky player will have the download button on it so that may not matter.
My question is, can the shortcode be used somewhow on the grid for the excerpts on the front page? I'm not sure how to do that and haven't started customizing yet because I'm still waiting for my new host to import my RSS feed over to their service. It's not a deal breaker but would be helpful if there was a way to do that. You can get an idea as to what I'm asking by going to https://partyfavorz.com/
I won't actually start working on this until tomorrow as I wait on your response and for my feed to be moved over to my new host. Then, I can start customizing. I definitely plan on using your Pro player because now that I have a better understanding of it, I like it even more.
Still, I need to be able to use the boxed version. I also had some issues with changing the color of the waveform. It would show the color but then change the code to black and on the website, appeared grey. I use #cc3333 204, 51, 51. I'll have to play with it some more.
Q: On the free version, when I choose the boxed version for single posts, it still only displays the floated version.
A: The default player in the single post should inherit the settings layout

A: You can create a new post template with elementor Pro or create a new post type if you have few php knowledge.
Q: What's the purpose of importing all of my episodes into RSS feed importer?
A: It seems to me that this is the best way to import podcast episodes. The plugin really has a lot of options. Use only the features that are useful to you

A: A recommend you to first try the grid layout from the player (only available) with the pro version. You can se few examples here: https://sonaar.io/mp3-audio-player-pro/music-player-for-wordpress/examples/ The episode description can be visible.
Thanks,
