Which page on the site are you using the shortcodes on? Is it in a post, page or elsewhere? Can you provide a link to that page?
Did you use an [audioalbum] shortcode before your [audiotrack] shortcodes?
When your reply here, can you also copy in the shortcodes you added so I can see if there’s anything there that might indicate why it is not working for you.
Hi,
Yes, its: http://simonboswell.co.uk
Shortcode:
[audioalbum]
[audiotrack title=”Track1″ songwriter=”Artist” mp3=”http://simonboswell.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/02-Dear-Prudence.mp3″%5D
(I’m aware the Beatles might not be too happy, I’m just using it as a test track…)
I can now see the bits that are appearing are in the sidebar.
Where is that pasted into? Is it in a text widget?
It is yeah. But I had the same issue when I pasted the code into a page or post.
As a troubleshooting step, can you replace your shortcodes:
with just the standard native WordPress shortcode?
[audio mp3="http://simonboswell.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/02-Dear-Prudence.mp3"]
Does anything appear then?
Hmmmm that didn’t work either. Could be something to do with the theme?
Yeah just turned off the theme and it’s worked fine. It’s got built in audio playlists but they’re rubbish so I was looking for an alternative. I’ll contact the them authors.
Thanks.
That seems to correspond with what I have discovered.
You are using a commercial theme from themeforest. The theme’s documentation mentions an [audio] shortcode here:
http://www.themes.red-sun-design.com/soundboard/shortcodes/
As my plugin works simply as a wrapper to the native [audio] shortcode built into WordPress, and passes parameters to it, the function replacing it with one also using [audio] in your theme does not know what to do with these parameters as it expects a totally different format.
I would suggest you contact your theme vendor to ask how to deactivate the built-in audio feature and enable the native WordPress audio functionality.
