 * I am not a web designer, but I have made several web sites starting with html
   coding, then MS Frontpage, then MS Expression Web, and finally WordPress.
 * My WordPress site was for my band. A site for all to access to play mp3s of our
   best performances, and a password protected portion for bandmembers to hear all
   practices and performances, both good and bad.
 * It worked great…for about 5 months. Now the protected mp3s won’t play. Is it 
   WordPress, WPaudio which has been abandoned, List Yo’ Files which has been abandoned,
   s2Member, or something else? After more than 14 hours of troubleshooting, I honestly
   don’t know. But since running WordPress I rely on others for coding and functionality,
   I am at their mercy.
 * It seems that I am at a dead end. What to do????

 * Wow, Thanks for asking. [
    Please note my addition of a new haiku player which
   has the same problems: it plays on the home public page; but it doesn’t play 
   on the band member protected content page. If you would like to register as a
   user I will grant you custom capabilities (s2Member) so that you can try the 
   protected content. Thx.
 * Here is what I have been dealing with:
    Cernek.com is my band’s three-page website.
   My band members and I (8 users) go there to listen to the MP3s from our practices
   and performances. The homepage is accessible to the public where several MP3s
   are listed and can be played by anyone, and the second page contains password-
   protected content for logged in band members only. It has all has worked flawlessly.(
   The third page is a requirement of using s2Member to notify non-logged in users
   that they do not have access to the band members only page)
 * Yesterday I became aware of a problem where logged in members were having difficulty
   playing MP3s on the band members only page. Only a few MP3s will play, and only
   sometimes, while most MP3s will not play. Everyone seems to be able to play all
   of the MP3s on the homepage without a problem.
 * I have built the site using WordPress (v 3.2.1), List Yo’ Files to list all of
   the MP3s in a particular folder (practice or performance), WPaudio to play the
   MP3s on demand, and s2Member to handle membership access to the protected content.
   All plug-ins and themes are up to date.
 * What could be wrong?
