The product, while functional, was only half finished in my assessment. The integration made converting WordPress posts into audio podcasts simple and now will sunset on May 11th. The WordPress \/ Spotify integration is what I\u2019ve been using to\u00a0distribute the audio articles\u00a0on my personal website. It was a promising tool, but it\u2019s not altogether surprising that it will sunset. Here\u2019s the pertinent portion of the email from WordPress. .stk-509b2ef{border-radius:14px !important;overflow:hidden !important} We are reaching out today to share some important news regarding the Anchor (now Spotify for Podcasters) feature on&nbsp;WordPress.\u200bcom. The integration with Anchor and&nbsp;WordPress.\u200bcom&nbsp;will be discontinued on May 11, 2023, and this feature will no longer be available after that date. Here\u2019s what this means for you: Unpublished draft episodes&nbsp;created with Anchor&nbsp;should be published before May 11, 2023. All draft podcasts will be automatically deleted once the feature is discontinued. All published episodes created with the tool&nbsp;will not be deleted&nbsp;and will remain a part of your show. After May 11, you\u2019ll no longer be able to create new podcast episodes using the integration with Anchor and&nbsp;WordPress.\u200bcom. Your WordPress.\u200bcom account and website(s) will not be impacted in any way. This article was first published on MasonPelt.com and republished with permission.
