  Hi All,
  I wanted to add a music player from boomkat / juno.co.uk / soundcloud to my posts – of course the
  tracks are legit and both sources give codes to use with full permition.

  Im not a web expert – none of the codes work either in visual / html scripting new posts. The just dont appear after publishing…

  is this because Java/CSS have been disabled in free blogs ?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The only information I found for adding/embedding music player under http://en.support.wordpress.com/audio/ is for http://en.support.wordpress.com/audio/odeo/ and http://en.support.wordpress.com/audio/soundcloud-audio-player/ .

  Without the URL of your blog, starting with http, we can’t begin to guess why you’re having the problem. Please paste it in here.

  Right,
  Here it goes
  blog: http://trzecieucho.wordpress.com/ (it’s in polish)
  boomkat: http://www.boomkat.com

  Last i checked the Juno player did not work either, it only displays the player header, and nothing else. The boomkat player shows nothing.

  To get the boomkat code u just pick up any album to get to its details page; right below the quick review theres an expandable “+” button that opens up the player with code to be copied & pasted into blog/website.

  But what IS the code? Please paste it in here, between backticks so it shows up. The audio players that work on WordPress.com are limited to a rather small list.

  @skrba
  <strong > iframe therein lies the problem and the reason why the code is being stripped out by the software. See this entry > http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/

  thanks for all the replies…

  soundcloud doesnt work either though. it just shows the header, no track to play at all. im pretty sure im pasting the proper code, i know basics of html in a way so i dunno.. ? ill update with the link later on.
