 * Thank you again for your reply.
 * I understand the principle of what you have explained and what it does.
    However,
   I am not that clued up with php. All I am able to do is copy and paste stuff 
   really.
 * So, a couple of questions, in case you know a thing or two;
    1. Where did you
   get the function “add_m3j” from and are you sure that it is up to date? I am 
   interested as I did not see it mentioned in the doc.
 * 2. In your opinion what should I put in my functions.php then? Possibly I’d like
   to “merge” your code with mine above. Considering the following from the doc:
 * > Template Tags
   > Tags have become easier since version 1.7, you can now send in shortcodes. 
   > Note: there’s an admin option to ignore the tags which needs to remain unticked
   > when you want to use them.
   > Instructions: Place tag (1) in the header, place tag (2) where you want the
   > players to be.
   > (1). mp3j_addscripts( $style )
   > Loads the player’s javascript and CSS files into the page header, and allows
   > you to set a stylesheet. This tag must be placed above wp_head(), and must 
   > be used to ensure scripts will be loaded for players set via template tags.
   > $style can be either a URI to a stylesheet, or ‘styleA’, ‘styleB’, ‘styleC’,‘
   > styleD’ to use one available from admin. Defaults to current admin setting 
   > if not specified.
   > (2). mp3j_put( $shortcodes )
   > Adds player(s) where the tag is placed in the theme. Can use multiple times.
   > $shortcodes is a string containing any player shortcodes and html
   > Example
   > Play 5 random library tracks on the posts index page
   > Put this in header.php above wp_head()
   >     ```
   >     <?php
   >        mp3j_addscripts();
   >      ?>
   >     ```
   > 
   > Put this in index.php
   >     ```
   >     <?php
   >        mp3j_put( '[mp3-jplayer tracks="FEED:LIB" pick="5"]' );
   >      ?>
   >     ```
   > 
   > Always use if ( function_exists() ) {} to check tags exist before running them
   > incase the plugin gets deactivated.

 * Thank you, your input is truly appreciated, even though your code did not work.
 * All I was asking/saying, is that the doc recommended using something like: if(
   function_exists() ) {} …
 * So I googled and eventually came across the example from an other thread.
    You
   suggested something different, and you also said that you did not know why the
   instructions said that anymore , I assumed and understood that in your opinion
   the code was dated/no needed anymore — that’s what I meant by “not needed anymore?”
 * Otherwise, does the following code makes sense to you?
 *     ```
       if ( function_exists('mp3j_addscripts') ) {
       mp3j_addscripts(); }
       ```
   
 * I came up with it by analysing the code I pasted from the other post.
 * Thanks again

 * PS: I think there is a typo in your code — shouldn’t it be:
    `mp3j_addscripts();`
 * Instead of:
    `mp3j_add_scripts();`
 * ?

       <?php if ( function_exists('mp3j_addscripts') ) { mp3j_addscripts('/wp-content/plugins/mp3-jplayer/css/mp3jplayer-green-sidebar.css'); } ?>

 * Put this in header.php above wp_head()

       <?php

 * In Template Tag Help I read:
    Always use if ( function_exists() ) {} to check
   tags exist before running them incase the plugin gets deactivated.
 * What does the final php code should look like? Thank you

 * Oh well done — much much nicer AND Neater!
 * If it was me I would try the “Text” Players in settings. You’ll get a better 
   contrast IMO.
 * Also, I would add something like “PLAY”, “PREVIEW”, “DEMO” or “LISTEN” after 
   the play /pause button. Something like [PLAY@url.com.song.mp3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rawdolphe/replies/page/7/PLAY@url.com.song.mp3?output_format=md)…
   Just to give an extra clue and it wouldn’t look bad.
 * On a side note + out of topic 😛
    Re: You know the thing I have mentioned about
   recording violinists? Simply put — if you know violinists of any age/level in
   London, I’d record them for free — in exchange they’d play one of my short pieces,
   and I would record it. That’s a pretty good deal + it can also help students 
   and/or professionals monitor their progress.

 * No worries – Great!
 * You can always add this to your MP3 shortcode: flip=”y” — would look neater.
 * I would also try to give the MP3 cell a fixed width, trying to avoid the resizing
   on play/pause/play next…
 * Something like this would go in your custom css (Plugin Options)
    .wp-table-reloaded.
   column-6 {width: 50px;} or whatever size works best.
 * You could also give a fixed size to “Lengths”, “Level” etc…
 * I have used this table and this player to do something similar.
 * PS: on a different topic, let me know if you know any violinists in London who
   would like to be recorded, could offer a service for another as well…
