You can share your uploads from Mixcloud quickly and easily by embedding the widget onto your site or other platforms.
The widget allows you to share shows and tracks from your profile and playlists, and feels just like using the desktop and mobile versions of Mixcloud.

Embedding content from stations
If you're a station, curator, or someone who uploads content to a Mixcloud profile with several hosts, you can embed a widget that plays all uploads from the profile. You can also customize the code so it only plays uploads from specific hosts.
To set up and customize the widget:
- Navigate to the station or curator profile that the content has been uploaded to.

- Copy the embed code into your site builder. This will embed the entire feed for the profile you selected.

- Replace this section with:
?feed=[YOUR USERNAME]%2Fhosts%2Fs[HOST USERNAME]%2F"
