The player doesn't show up on the page. I think this has been a bug for some time, since 2.7.1 at least. It looks like this fine player is no longer being updated either since the 2.0 beta versions last entries were 2008. It's a shame, as this was one of the nicest and most popular players. Anyone have suggestions for an alternative, simple player?

Posted 2 years ago #The only thing that doesn't work about Audio Player in 2.8 is the insert feature from the Audio Media Gallery. You have to manually insert the URL like so:
[audio:http://www.yourdomain.com/path/to/your_mp3_file.mp3]
A bit of a pain, but it's still fairly simple. You can still upload files through the Media Gallery, but then just grab the URL to the file without inserting. Then you just have to write [audio: URL].

Posted 2 years ago #I was getting a blank space in my post instead of the player until after a bit of research and re-reading the documentation found a solution that fixed it for me in version 2.9 Below is what comes with the plugin's documentation:
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This plugin will only work if your theme allows inserting code in the HEAD and FOOTER sections of your blog. See [this page](http://wpaudioplayer.com/support/troubleshooting) for more details.
This is what I've done to get the player to show up in the posts:
Insert this in the header.php file:
<?php wp_head(); ?>And this in the footer.php file
<?php wp_footer(); ?>and it should work :-)
If your not sure how to write or locate the header and footer files, check wordpress codex for theme development help: http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development
