  I want to download audio content from the WP media library from a link on my website. I can’t seem to do it. Any comments. Maybe the WP media library is just in house. THanks, TG

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

  We’re going to need to see the specific POST where you’ve put the MP3. Are you trying to hotlink it? Maybe give us both that link and the link to the website where you’re trying to use the MP3.

  The website is http://www.fhafrica.org hosted by CityMax. I want to add a player that contacts to WP media library for Mp3 play and also allows for Mp3 download.

  The link is at http://www.fhafrica.org. It says, Why Crusades? and is found just under my signiture in the introduction. I can do a download by right clicking Save Target As. I want to be able to play the audio on the sight and have a download oppition with out right clicking. Any suggestions? Forgive me if I am tec challenged. Thanks, Tommy Griner

  Since we have no experience with outside audio players, we cannot tell you for sure, but you should be able to get the URL of the audio file you uploaded here and then point the audio player to that file.
