  I have the code for the player but when I put it in the Text widget, the code disappears and on the website, nothing shows up.

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

  Jesus, will you keep your hat on? The average response time in a forum is over 14 hours.

  As a simple search of the Support site could show, Grooveshark isn’t supported here, and the workaround is disabled since they changed their code. You will not be able to use it.

  But when I put the code here and previewed it, it worked. Why not on Widgets? Any special code translation?

  I read that over and over, I didn’t get it at all! I’m sorry because I don’t have any experience in HTML code stuff.

  You copy the model:
  [gigya src="http://grooveshark.com/widget.swf" width="250" height="40" wmode="window" allowScriptAccess="always" flashvars="VARIABLES HERE" ]
  You change the height number, and you replace VARIABLES HERE with the actual variables from the original code. Result:
  [gigya src="http://grooveshark.com/widget.swf" width="250" height="250" wmode="window" allowScriptAccess="always" flashvars="hostname=grooveshark.com&playlistID=77895142&p=0&bbg=000000&bth=000000&pfg=000000&lfg=000000&bt=FFFFFF&pbg=FFFFFF&pfgh=FFFFFF&si=FFFFFF&lbg=FFFFFF&lfgh=FFFFFF&sb=FFFFFF&bfg=666666&pbgh=666666&lbgh=666666&sbh=666666" ]

  By the way, rain, when Grooveshark changed their code I updated my post accordingly: the workaround is alive and well.
