The Radio Page Styling section allows you to further customize the look of your Radio Page.
Show login button - With this setting, you can choose to hide the login link from your Radio Page Navigation Bar.

Displaying this button will make it easier for you or your DJs to be able to login and access your Airtime Pro instance.
Show embed button - The embed link will appear at the bottom right corner of your Radio Page if this box is checked. The embed button allows users to access the code for a player widget such that they could embed your radio station on their website.
When a listener clicks on the embed button on your Radio Page there will be a window that pops up with text that they can copy and paste into their website code. If you prefer to have more control over who can share your radio station in this way, leave the Show Embed button unchecked.
Show Album Cover Art - In the bottom left corner of the Radio Page, you have the option to show the cover art from the album of the current song. The song title and artist metadata is compared to an album art database. To ensure that the most appropriate album art is displayed, make sure that your track metadata is complete. Occasionally mismatched album art might occur. You have the option to opt out of the Cover Art matching service by leaving the checkbox unchecked.
Navigation bar style - You can choose between a dark colour or light colour Navigation Bar. Depending on your Station logo and Station background, you might find that one style of Navigation Bar looks better than the other. The change is purely cosmetic. The dark style Navigation Bar is shown on the left. The light colour Navigation bar is shown on the right. The RADIO text of the default station logo will automatically adjust according to your Navigation Bar style choice.
