    I’ve tried to add the Spotify link to my blog so readers can hear the recording of my blogs. Every time I try to add the link, it shows an error while trying to preview the theme then won’t complete the process. I’m decent with some aspects of the computer but would be considered low on the bar of knowledge.

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

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

    Hi there,

    To embed a Spotify link into your blog, follow these steps:

    Obtaining the Playlist URL from Spotify

    • Open your Spotify App.
    • Click the three dots next to a playlist or a specific song.
    • If you are using the Web app select Copy Playlist Link, or Copy Song Link.
    • When using the Desktop app select Share → Copy Show Link.

    Embedding the link via the WordPress Block Editor

    • When in the editor click Add Block.
    • Search for and select the Spotify block.
    • Paste the link you copied from Spotify in the steps above.
    • Click Embed to embed the Spotify playlist or song.

    Here’s a link to the WordPress.com / Spotify documentation: https://wordpress.com/support/audio/spotify/

    If it’s not working with your own recording, try testing the process above with another Spotify link.

    I hope the info helps!
