archiveorg shortcodes not working
-
Hi! The shortcodes for The Internet Archive don’t seem to work in my blog anymore. When e.g. posting
[archiveorg id=arslongavitabrevis2/wtunson.mp3]
nothing is shown, but when posting
play or download song
all goes well. What’s wrong? Thanks in advance for your kind advice! Stefan Hetzel (composer) -
Hi there, can you point to a post or page on your WordPress.com site where you previously embedded audio from the Internet Archive? These are the current instructions for embedding audio, and it looks a bit different to what you’ve posted above https://en.support.wordpress.com/audio/#embed-audio-from-a-link
Also let us know which Editor you are using. Thanks.

Hi, thank you for your kind reply :-) Here is a page where I embedded audio from The Internet Archive:
I am using the classic editor.
I never used the audio embed shortcode to embed audio from The Internet Archive, but always the archiveorg shortcode, e.g.
[archiveorg id=arslongavitabrevis2&playlist=1 height=400]
This worked for years – until yesterday :-( -
Hi there, thanks for adding that. Were there audio players embedded previously on that page?
I’ve flagged this thread for Staff attention as well. Thanks for your patience while they get back to you.

Hi there,
I can see all the shortcode embeds on that page. Can you please grab a screenshot of what you’re seeing and upload it to your Media Library so I can have a look? Here’s how to take a screenshot:

As you can see from the following screenshot, the audio embed loads fine on my end.
