  Hey, I’m new at wordpress and I’m having trouble uploading music files to my blog posts. I’ve uploaded them into my media library and attached them to the blog posts. I’ve also tried to add them to the blog and insert them. What I get is a bit of text at the beginning of the post and no music.

  So my question is – how do you get the music to play???

  I’d also like to know if anyone knows how to get music to play automatically when someone comes to the site. I’d appreciate some advice from anyone who can help.

  Please provide a link to your wordpress.COM blog when asking questions in the forum. And if you are hosted here, consider linking your user name to your blog as explained in the sticky, 8 Things, at the op of the forums.

  If you are hosted here, please take a look at the FAQ on music on your blog.

  I’m having trouble getting the music to play as well. (kimskids.wordpress.com). I added a song but it’s not playing. I’m trying to get it to play automatically. Does wordpress have that capability? In any event, it won’t play at all.

  Have you checked out the FAQ for information on audio?

  FAQ

  There is absolutely NO autoplay audio available at WordPress.com and the majority of your blog readers will be grateful, since surveys indicate most people are already listening to something while browsing the web.
