Player shows "Subscribe" links on Premium Content channel

There’s no way to remove those subscribe links in the PowerPress settings. But it’s possible thru CSS.

I’m assuming you’re seeing subscribe links for iTunes, Android, and RSS under the players? I know that may cause confusion for some users. But, if you let them know during the signup process those links won’t work it might help cut down on that confusion.

Shawn,

Thanks for the reply. You are correct that I want to remove the subscribe links for iTunes, Android, RSS and email beneath the player. I didn’t hold out much hope that the “Subscribe” button on the bottom of the player was removable. Any suggestions as to how I would remove the links with CSS?

And we already have more than 1000 paid members, but even if we told them up front that they links would be useless, there’d be dozens every day who would be emailing us to let us know the site was broken…

Thanks again,

Chuck

So, after some further research, it turns out you can’t change this with CSS. However, you can try this:
1.) Go to PowerPress >> Settings, Advanced Mode >> Episodes
2.) Check the box next to “Display Player and Links Options”
3.) Check the box next to “No Links Option (Disable media links on a per episode basis)”

Now, inside the Podcast Episode box for your custom channel posts, you should see a checkbox underneath the “Link to media hosted on blubrry.com” button that says “Do not display media links.” Check that box for the podcasts where you don’t want to have the subscribe links underneath.

Shawn,

Thanks for the help.

The instructions you give actually only remove the “Play in New Window | Download MP3” links. The “Subscribe” links are still there. In fact, if I use the “No player & links” option, the only thing that shows up is the “Subscribe” links. It almost seems as though there is no way to remove them from the episodes.

All the best,

Chuck

I relayed this to Angelo, the lead developer of PowerPress, and he said this may be a bug, and that the subscribe links should be gone, too. He said he’s looking into it.

Awesome! Thanks for all the help.

Hello 360woodworking,

I believe I fixed the problem. You can get the latest development version here: https://downloads.www.ads-software.com/plugin/powerpress.zip You will need to install this version manually.

Let me know if this fixes the problem.

Thanks,
Angelo

Angelo,

That did the trick. Thank you, and Shawn, for all the help.
