Audio Player Plugin Installation and Usage

  1. Go to the ‘Add New’ plugins screen in your WordPress admin area
  2. Click the ‘upload’ tab
  3. Browse for the plugin file (sc_audio_player.zip)
  4. Click ‘Install Now’ and then activate the plugin
  5. Use the following shortcode to embed an audio file anywhere on your site

[sc_embed_player fileurl='URL OF THE MP3 FILE']

Example shortcode:

[sc_embed_player fileurl='https://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/my-music/mysong.mp3']

Additional Usage Documentation

Using Auto Play Option

Use the “autoplay” parameter in the shortcode to play the audio file on page load. Here is an example shortcode with autoplay option:

[sc_embed_player autoplay=true fileurl='https://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/my-music/mysong.mp3']

Specifying a Volume Level

Use the optional “volume” parameter in the shortcode to specify a volume level for the audio. You can use a value between 0 – 100 for the volume level. Here is an example shortcode usage:

[sc_embed_player volume='50' fileurl='https://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/my-music/mysong.mp3']

The above will set the volume level of the audio file to 50.

Looping the Sound

Use the “loops” parameter in the audio player shortcode to loop an audio file playback automatically. Here is an example shortcode usage with auto loop:

[sc_embed_player loops='true' fileurl='https://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/my-music/mysong.mp3']

Specifying Both MP3 and OGG Files for the Audio

Note:You don’t really need to use this option. You can just use the mp3 option and the plugin will make sure that the file is playable in all devices.

You can specify both the files types in the “fileurl” parameter separating them with a “|” character. Here is an example shortcode usage that is specifying both the .mp3 and .ogg version of the audio file:

[sc_embed_player loops='true' fileurl='https://www.example.com/my-audio.mp3|https://www.example.com/my-audio.ogg']

The plugin will play the supported file based on the user’s device.

Wrapping Text Around the Audio Player

If you want to wrap some text around the audio player then use the following in the “Text” view of the post/page editor:

<p>My Audio: </p>[sc_embed_player fileurl='https://www.example.com/my-music/mysong.mp3']

Alternatively, use the following in the “Text” view of the post/page editor (wrap the audio player shortcode in another CSS class with float):

Some example text
<div>
[sc_embed_player fileurl='https://www.example.com/my-music/mysong.mp3']
</div>

Misc Tips and Tweaks

Change the Player Background Color for Template 1

Add the following CSS code to your theme’s CSS file or via the custom CSS plugin to change the player background color. The following example will change the color to red.

Disable Simultaneous Audio File Playback

Hq Player Review

Go to the settings menu of this plugin and check the “Disable Simultaneous Play” option to turn off simultaneous audio file playback option. When this option is used, it will automatically stop the audio file that is currently playing when the visitor plays a new file.

Autoplay is not Working on IOS Devices

IOS devices (iPhone iPad) do not allow you to do autoplay. This is a functionality that Apple prevents on their devices. Nothing we can do in the plugin for this unfortunately.

Hosting Your Audio Files

Hq Music Movies

The most obvious choice is to upload your audio files to your site using WordPress’s media uploader. After you upload the audio file via media uploader, it will give you the URL of the file. You can then use the URL in the shortcode of this audio player plugin.

Alternatively, you can host your audio files on Amazon s3.
