 * Hello,
 * I can’t connect to SoundCloud. I use this test-account but without succes. I 
   get this message:
 * _This artist’s label might be blocking access to the artist’s tracks from outside
   Soundcloud.com and only allow embedding from Soundcloud.com. _
 * I’m looking for a solution, could you help me?

 * Hi [@henry-peters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/henry-peters/),
 * This is a weird gap in Soundcloud’s API where intentionally block tracks and 
   just empty accounts return the same response. Would you be able to give me your
   Soundcloud username so I can have a look?
 * Cheers

 * Hi again,
 * I just tried it and at first I got the message too but once I clicked “Saved 
   Your SoundCloud Settings” button at the bottom your latest track appeared.
 * Have you tried: Adding your account, wait for the error message > click save 
   settings
 * Cheers

 * Yes i tried that already. To bad, no luck. I copied the website to a local server(
   with the same configuration) and there it works.

 * That’s interesting,
 * Do you mean it didn’t work on a remote server with your hosting provider but 
   it works on your localhost? That’s really strange, especially as the configuration
   is the same.
 * Don’t know what to say tbh. There must be a difference between the 2 environments.

 * Is there an issue with cross domains? Is the server blocking soundcloud – like
   a blacklist of ip addresses?
 * create a phpinfo() page to see what is allowed on the server and what services
   are running / disabled.
    Version of php are you using?
 * Are you hosting on an apache server or iis?
    Alternatively turn off all other
   plugins to see if the problem still persists. This plugin works really well on
   my site and others in the past. There is nothing wrong with the plugin it works
   perfectly – see [https://digitalpilots.com](https://digitalpilots.com) 🙂

 * Server is not blocking soundcloud. When i copy the code from soundcloud it works.
   
   It’s a apache server php 5.6.7.
 * I can see the plugin is working on my local website. I also think it’s in the
   server configuration but i can’t figure it out.

 * Hi [@henry-peters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/henry-peters/)
 * Sorry I can’t help you any more than that. Did you manage to find the root of
   the problem in the end?
 * [@asa-beaumont](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asa-beaumont/), Thanks a 
   lot for helping out! Really makes me happy when I see others trying to help out.
