A complete Electronic Press Kit plugin for musicians and bands. Manage bios, photos, audio/video, press, tech rider, and contact info from a single screen.

Description

WP Electronic Press Kit gives you a single place to manage every component a venue or promoter needs to say "yes" in under 30 seconds:

Three bio lengths — elevator pitch, medium, and full — with character counters.
Photo gallery — drag photos from the WordPress media library; landscape and portrait shots side-by-side.
Audio & video links — Spotify, Bandcamp, SoundCloud, YouTube, Vimeo. The first link auto-embeds.
Press clippings — pull-quotes plus links to reviews, interviews, and features.
Notable past shows — tabular list of dates, venues, cities, and billing.
Social metrics — show off the impressive numbers, hide the rest.
Tech rider & stage plot — upload a stage plot image, attach a tech rider PDF, and build a channel-ordered input list.
Contact card — booking agent, role, email, phone.
Social media links — predefined platforms for consistent display.

Display Options

Press kits show up as their own custom post type (/epk/your-band/), embeddable via the [epk] shortcode, or via the Press Kit Gutenberg block. Themes can override the single template by providing single-epk_artist.php.

Shortcode

[epk] — uses the current post if it is an EPK. [epk id="123"] — render a specific kit. [epk slug="my-band"] — render by slug. [epk sections="bio,photos,contact"] — limit to specific sections.

Available section keys: bio, photos, audio, video, press, shows, metrics, tech, contact, social.

Installation

Upload the wp-epk folder to /wp-content/plugins/.
Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress.
Go to Press Kits → Add New and start filling out your sections.
Optionally create a "Press" page with the [epk id="..."] shortcode for a friendlier URL.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I host more than one artist?

Yes — each press kit is its own post.

Can I keep a press kit private?

Set the post status to Private or Password Protected in the publish box, or change the rewrite slug via the wp_epk_rewrite_slug filter.

How do I theme this?

Two ways: drop a single-epk_artist.php into your theme, or copy templates/single-epk.php from this plugin into your theme.
