FAQ
-
Do I need a Spotify account?
-
Yes. A free Spotify account is enough. A Spotify Developer app (free to create) is required so the plugin can fetch data like your profile and podcast episodes.
-
Is Elementor required?
-
No. Since version 4.1 every widget is also available as a native Gutenberg block. If Elementor is installed, the Elementor widgets are available as well.
-
How do I get Spotify API credentials?
-
Go to developer.spotify.com/dashboard, create a free app, and copy the Client ID and Client Secret into Liza Spotify Settings.
-
How does the Podcast Episodes widget work?
-
Paste a Spotify show URL or ID and the widget lists the newest episodes — with cover art, descriptions, release dates, and durations. Episode data is cached and refreshed automatically, so new episodes appear on your site without you touching anything.
-
Can I style the widgets to match my site?
-
Yes. Every widget ships with a polished default design and exposes accent, background, and text colors, border radius, padding, and typography controls in both Elementor and Gutenberg.
-
Is this plugin free?
-
The core plugin is free. Additional widgets are available via an optional upgrade.
-
Where can I get support?
-
Post in the plugin support forum on WordPress.org.
