Playing audio in the current window

    Hello,
    I’ve recently discovered your plugin and I really like it, but I have a question. In one of the clickable areas, I have selected in the Action field “Go to the URL”, and in the URL field, the URL of a mp3 file previously uploaded in my media library.
    I was wondering if it is possible in the Pro version (I do not see this option in the basic) to play the audio without changing the current window or opening the audio in a new window.

    Thanks

    Hello @mosina,

    Neither our free version or our pro version has any special handling or options for audio files. This is the first request we’ve received for those, so we’ll add that to our list of features we’re considering for future releases. We review that regularly to set priorities for development.

    Please let us know if there’s anything else we can help with.

    Thank you for your quick response.
    Yes, I was looking for that topic in this forum and I didn’t see a thread related to this.
    I think this plugin would be fantastic for my site, which is related to learning, and I’ll probably buy the Pro version soon
    to take the most advantage of it. But it would be fantastic to have this feature in the future, since I think that the user experience would be much better.
    Regards

    Hi @mosina, you could actually play audio in the same window by using a shortcode in the More Info area. It wouldn’t autoplay (which is a browser restriction, many devices block the ability to autoplay mp3s), but the user would see an audio player and be able to play it right there. You could use the default wordpress [audio] shortcode:
    [audio src="audio-source.mp3"]

    hope that helps!
