 * Here’s one way. Assume you upload two audio files which receive the IDs 85 and
   86. If you did this via the create playlist from add media, it would create a
   shortcode
 * `[playlist ids="85,86"]`
 * so, if you wanted to generate the output of that from PHP, you could just do
 * `<?php echo do_shortcode( '[playlist ids="85,86"]' ); ?>`

 * You can get the IDs by looking in the media library.
 * You can see how that shortcode gets expanded into a playlist here: `http://kevindurrmusic.

 * I can’t use ID
    Is this anyway I can add playlist without music ID?

 * If you need to do something else, you could look for playlist plugins.
