Services & Statistics

Note: The former Services & Stats tab was removed in a previous version of PowerPress. All functionality now lives on the default Welcome screen in PowerPress settings.

Step 1: Go to PowerPress Settings

Log into your WordPress website and go to PowerPress in the left-hand menu. This opens the Welcome tab.

If you’re not using Blubrry Hosting or Statistics, you don’t need to connect your account.

Step 2: Click “Let’s Connect”

 

 

 

On the Welcome tab, click the Let’s Connect button.

  • If you’re already logged into your Blubrry.com account in the same browser, you’ll be asked to authorize the connection.

  • If not, you’ll be prompted to log into your Blubrry account first.

Click Authorize to link your Blubrry account to PowerPress.

Step 3: Choose a Default Program

After authorizing, you’ll return to your WordPress dashboard and be asked to select your default podcast program. This is the show PowerPress will use:

  • When uploading new media files (if you’re using Blubrry Hosting)

  • When applying the default statistics prefix (if you’re using Blubrry Stats)

Reminder: Be sure to click “Save Changes” at the bottom of the screen to store your settings.

Step 4 (Optional): Using Multiple Podcasts

If you manage more than one podcast in PowerPress using Podcast Channels or Category Podcasting, you’ll need to enable Multiprogram Mode:

  1. Go to PowerPress > Advanced

  2. Check the box for Multiprogram Mode

  3. Click Save Changes

For each additional podcast feed:

  • Go to that feed’s settings

  • Select Other under the statistics prefix option

  • Paste in the correct prefix from your Blubrry account
