I am trying to post a song from soundcloud, usually you just copy paste the URL and the song is there. Now all that is happening is the URL itself is being copied and thats it, no song.

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

Make sure you’re pasting the URL into the “Visual” tab in the editor:

Yes I am doing that. I have done the exact same thing hundreds of times before with no problem, now all of a sudden this is a problem. Will no one with wordpress help me? seems strange I cant get a real answer from them.

No worries!

Can you try pasting the URL into a new post again and then publishing the post and sending me a link so I can take a look?

I started a new post and it worked perfectly. For some reason, unknown to me, it just would not work in the original post that I started. This has happened to me before though.

That’s strange but I’m glad it worked this time. However next time it happens publish the post and add it as a comment to this thread and we can take a look.
