Completing your station profile(s)
Your station profile is the location where we keep important information (metadata) about your station. This metadata is used in many of our systems - and controls everything from how you are listed in search results to how your station is represented in the mobile apps. The more complete it is, the better will be the experience of listeners enjoying your content on Radioplayer.
When you log in, you will be presented with an overview along with a list of your stations.
To edit an individual station, please click on the relevant station in the list.
Overview tab
This tab contains the basics about your station, including a quick overview of the number of streams and on demand items linked to your station.
In this section, you can edit your station name (short, medium and long), strap line, full description, synonyms, website and Radioplayer console URL.
Branding tab
In 'branding' you will be able to upload your station logo and select your primary station colour.
Radioplayer uses images such as station logos across all of our interfaces. So that you don't have to create dozens of images, you can use our resizing tool.
If you have a high resolution version of your logo (by which we mean it must be at least 1920px wide) then you can drag and drop or select the file to upload. JPEGs and PNGs are best. Don't try to resize a low res image up to 1920px just to use this feature.
Audio tab
In 'audio' you can add your stream urls and review podcasts linked to your station.
You are able to specify in which product each stream is available.
Location tab
In ‘location', the map tool lets you draw the location that your station covers. Zoom in to the part of the country you broadcast to. You can then draw a shape on the map which outlines your coverage area. Click once to place a marker. Once you have covered your broadcaster area, click 'save’.
You can also add your location data by clicking on 'paste' and adding the lat lon coordinates.
Settings tab
Under 'settings' you can define your language, keywords for your station and your station genres.
Language: If you are in a territory with multiple languages, if not you will only be given 1 option
Keywords: You can add up to ten keywords or keyphrases which relate to your station and output. These could be about shows, core artists on your playlists, presenters, competitions, local landmarks or otherwise. Type in a keyword at a time and type a comma when you are ready to add another. To delete a keyword, click the cross to the right of the entry. To edit a keyword, delete and add a new one.
