Stream Not Download
-
Perhaps I don’t understand how this is supposed to work. I read the posts at https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/how-to-get-wordpress-audio-player-to-show-up/page/2?replies=34. As it currently stands, clicking on the link brings up the users default media player. Is this how it is supposed to work? I have the space upgrade and uploaded the mp3 but was expecting the WordPress Media Player icon to show up. Is that only for audio hosted elsewhere?
Here is the specific post on my blog I am working with: http://vetyourlawyer.com/2009/03/05/attorney-client-trust-accounts/
Thx.

You have written a link to the file, and apparently you clicked the “Post URL” option when you uploaded it. You need to click “File URL”, and you need to use the audio player shortcode with that URL (the one that ends with “mp3”, as ellaella says):
[audio URL_HERE]
or:
[audio=URL_HERE]

thank you, thank you, thank you. For whatever reason, my version works without the ‘=’ sign. I didn’t ‘get’ that the audio instructions were for all mp3’s, not just the “ones ‘hosted somewhere’ on the internet”. That happens when you are too literal ;-)
