You can insert the progress bar by clicking the blue ‘+’ button to open the inserter panel on the left of the block editor, or by typing ‘/title’ in a new paragraph.

It’s important to notice that, unlike most of the Podcaster Plus blocks, the Episode Title block inserts two blocks. They are:

• Episode Title Block
• Heading block (this is the WordPress default heading block)

Settings unique to the Episode Title block #

The only settings which is unique to the Episode Title block is the Sync with RSS feed option.

If you alter the title, you can reset it to the original title from the RSS feed by toggling this setting off and then on again. This removes your amendments and restores the original title.

Notice that the actual text of the title is contained in a child of the Episode Title block. This is the default WordPress Heading block and has the default WordPress settings to amend color, typography and more.
