3. The injection mode

The injection mode allows the podcast to send its own information in all medias so that they take the same values.
Here is the information that can be inherited by the elements of a podcast:

  1. The description
  2. The subtitle
  3. URL to the website
  4. The author
  5. The image

These values will be inherited from the podcast where these two conditions are required :

Example of use

The result :
