wav file not showing on blog
-
I have uploaded a wav file which shows in the preview, but does not show on the actual blog. I recently changed themes and updated to a paid theme.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,
Can you share with us the steps you took to add the .wav file to your post? From what I can tell it appears that you haven’t added the correct player to you .wav file. Or during the theme switch, something went awry.
WordPress has an awesome article above to check out on the proper displaying of media files.
Let me know how it goes!

Thank you for your prompt reply.
It worked before, but lost it when changed theme. tried to reload and didn’t take.
Went to original blog posting – TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION IN THE INDIGENOUS LAND AND FOOD SYSTEM
edit > add media (took awhile for wav file to upload) > update. Showed in “view post”, but when I closed tab and returned did not show up in blog post.
I noticed all my other wav files from other posts are gone as well.
Thank you,
Ian -

Hi @gwfcnetwork, I see audio files on all of these posts:

Hello WordPress,
I still do not see the audio files in my posts
I am using a MAC OS X version 10.8.5
I have three browsers – chrome version 47, Firefox 43, Safari 6.1. None of the browsers show the audio files.
I do not get any error reports. As mentioned previously, the audio files show in the preview but t=not the final blog posting.
I have uploaded in my media library two screenshots of my blog, links below.

Thanks @gwfcnetwork, can you confirm whether you see them on another computer? I’m wondering if something on your mac is not allowing them through.

Hello WordPress Support,
I was sorta offline over the holidays.
I have looked on 6 different computers and several more browsers and none are showing the audio files. And most browsers are pretty current. I have looked on Safari, Chrome and Firefox.
Remember, the audio files are showing up in the preview and are definitely in the library, just not showing in actual post.
Thank you,
-
Hmm. I wonder whether we’re looking for the same thing. I see a black bar with a play button (or in this case a pause button; I’d clicked play to verify again that it’s working)
Here’s a screenshot:
https://cloudup.com/cmKPG3uLyq9If you’re not seeing that, can you send a screenshot of what you do see?
(And by the way, welcome back :) )

This is strange.
Yes, that is one of my audio postings and as you have, that is what I would like to see, but as I said, all the computers I have looked at show no file.
I have uploaded the screenshot I see from my computer which is in my wordpress library.

Thank you

OK, if you can include a full screenshot, the context may help me.
Also are all of these computers on the same network?
-
Hi again,
I have uploaded into my library a full screenshot (link at bottom)
I have looked on several computers and they are NOT on the same network. I have looked on both PCs and Macs at home work an friends and none are showing the audio files.
Weirdly, yesterday as I was scrolling through my blog at work, I noticed all the audio files might pop up occasionally. Then when i close and vista again, they are gone. Mostly I cannot see the audio file.
Thank you,

Odd, I’ve tried several computers here. Do you have an ad blocker or anything that could be blocking this for you?
Also, try this:
In Chrome, after loading up a page where you expect audio, go to View > Developer > JavaScript Console. Refresh. Get a screenshot of the results.
Click on Network, too, and refresh there. Get a screenshot (showing as much of it as you can).
We’ll go from there.
