SHOUT is an advanced HTML5 radio player for WordPress that allows you to integrate ShoutCast and IceCast live streams directly into your website. Developed by LambertGroup, this plugin is designed for radio stations, music bloggers, podcasters, and any website owner who wants to offer live audio streaming with a professional and modern user experience.
The plugin works surprisingly simply: you just need to add your radio stream URL and SHOUT automatically fetches the radio name, categories, currently playing song, and even the artist photo. This eliminates the need for complex manual configuration and lets you get your player up and running in minutes.
One of its standout features is built-in support for ads. You can define one or more commercial banners for each radio station, which will be displayed while users listen to the stream. If you prefer not to show ads, you can disable this feature and the player will display the artist image instead, offering total flexibility to monetize your audience as needed.
The player includes a sticky version that can be configured for a specific page or for the entire website, as well as a standard version that is inserted directly into page or post content. It also features a button that opens the player in a popup window, allowing listeners to keep listening to the radio while browsing the site menu without interruptions.
Customization is another strong point: it has more than 70 configurable parameters, including width, autoplay, initial volume, playlist, categories, and color parameters. You can choose between two available skins (white and black) or create any color combination to integrate the player perfectly into your site's design.
The playlist is organized into categories that are automatically generated from the stream data, and each radio file can belong to multiple categories. It includes playlist search with real-time results, buttons to show or hide the list, and options to share the player on Facebook and Twitter with customizable titles and descriptions.
The design is fully responsive and compatible with iOS and Android mobile devices, ensuring your listeners enjoy an optimal experience regardless of the device they use. With support for MP3 and AAC streams (in compatible browsers), SHOUT is the complete solution to take your online radio to the next level.
