 * Hi I am brand new to Radio Station and was trying to work out if Hosts can be
   used to present bios etc for rah host. When selecting the host from the show 
   page I am directed to a page with a “nothing found” notification.
 * I believe there may be something planned in the PRO version to include Information
   about individual hosts, however I’d there any workaround in the current version
   to utilise this functionality.
 * I am new to coding so any suggestions would be great!
 * Many thanks.

 * So sorry for the delayed reply. This long is unacceptable and it’s my fault I
   didn’t respond sooner. Been traveling the last few days and didn’t check the 
   forum.
 * Yes, we are planning DJ/Host pages for Pro. We’re In the process of finalizing
   the episode page templates now and the host/DJ templates, as well.
 * Hoping to roll out PRO within the next few weeks.
 * What you could potentially for the free version do is:
 * 1. Download a Custom post type plugin. Custom Post Types UI comes to mind. Build
   a DJ or Hosts post type (no coding required).
    2. Download Advanced Custom Fields
   and build the fields you want for the data you want inserted on the page. I haven’t
   used it, but I checked and there’s a way to add a shortcake for a field to a 
   page builder or the new WordPress block editor to add that field and make it 
   visible to the page. Short codes only support text fields I think. So when you
   build out your fields you assign them to the Post Tyoe page you want them on 
   so they always appear when you Add New.
 * Here’s a link to the addition fields tutorial: [https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/adding-fields-posts/#adding-fields](https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/adding-fields-posts/#adding-fields)
   
   3. You can then use the Redirection plugin to redirect the originating URL to
   the new URL created by the new custom post type plugin.
 * If you were familiar with child theming and using php tags, you could do this
   code wise too, but if not, the above mentioned process could be successful.
