September 2026 Changelog

Social buttons, share buttons and dashboard settings now use the X logo and name. Your existing links carry over — nothing to update.

Scheduling a blog post, video, or episode for the future is easier to read at a glance. The new calendar picker shows the date and time together in plain language, with the time always visible and a clear Done button to confirm your choice.

It's available everywhere you set a publish date — blog posts, videos, and episodes — and works the same in both light and dark mode.

Your guest list can now spotlight the guests you want new visitors to see first. Open Guests in your dashboard and switch to the new Featured tab to mark guests as featured and drag them into the order you want.

Featured guests appear in their own section at the top of your public guest page, ahead of the full list. Newly featured guests are automatically placed at the top of that order, so your latest highlight is always the first thing visitors see.

You can now click View on Website for a blog post that's still in draft and actually see it, styled and laid out exactly as it will look once published.

This only works for you and your team while signed in; visitors and search engines still can't see a post until you publish it. It's a quick way to proofread and check formatting before it goes live.

A handful of smaller improvements this month:

• Your podcast's hero image now fills the full width of the screen on mobile.
• Episode logo icons spread out to use the full width of their row.
• Pagination controls (the page number links at the bottom of long lists) are easier to use on smaller screens.
• General styling refinements across dashboard forms, cards, and navigation for a more consistent look in both light and dark mode.

Everything in your Podpage is now just a few keystrokes away. A new search sits at the top of your dashboard navigation — open it and start typing to find episodes, videos, guests, pages, features, and settings from one place.

Search takes you straight to the screen or editor you need instead of clicking through menus. On desktop, press Cmd/Ctrl + K to open it from anywhere in your dashboard.

When you notify a guest that their episode is live, the email now includes a link to any blog post you've written about that episode, alongside the episode and podcast player links. It's an easy extra way for guests to see and share the full writeup, not just the audio.

If you use Podpage's automatic blog post writer, you can now teach it how you want your posts written. Open your assistant settings and add custom instructions — style notes, topics to avoid, formatting preferences, or facts it should always get right — and every post it generates from your episodes will follow them.

Your instructions are saved with your podcast, so you only need to set them once.

You can now add a second step to your Podpage login. Open the account menu in your dashboard and choose Two-Factor Authentication, then scan the code with an authenticator app like Google Authenticator, 1Password or Authy.

Once it's on, you'll enter a six-digit code from the app when you log in. Save the recovery codes Podpage gives you — each one gets you in once if you ever lose your phone. It's optional, and nothing changes until you turn it on.
