Why do the mp3 & pdf files inserted into the post no longer appear there?
-
It used to be that when i would insert an mp3 or pdf file into a post, it would appear there. In this latest post, http://craigbuhler.com/2014/02/15/a-jazz-lick-from-bach-yes-indeed/bach-cello-ii-allemande-21-2/ the media files do not show up. What did i do wrong?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi Craig,
The link you provided is actually for the attachment page for the PDF you have uploaded (not for the post itself). It looks like the MP3 and PDF were correctly embedded into the post titled “A Jazz Lick From Bach? Yes Indeed!” as shown here:
The MP3 appears as a playable track and the PDF appears as a link as demonstrated here:
Let me know if I’ve misunderstood your question or if you need anything else!

Thank you, Jeremy,
The mp3 player now appears to be functioning properly. However, the pdf sheet of music which usually appears in the post (see this post for an example: http://craigbuhler.com/2012/03/03/effortless-mastery/ ) does not show up as a sheet of music in the newest post, but instead, appears as a link. The link takes you to a second page with a second link which finally takes you to the image of the music. How can i embed the sheet music directly into the post? -
Hi Craig,
The sheet of music on the page you mention is actually a JPG image, not a PDF. When uploading a document to your blog, the document will display as a link as demonstrated here:
If you would like the sheet of music to display similar to the post you mention, you will need to convert it to an image and then upload it to your post normally.
Let me know if you need any further clarification!

Thank you so much, Jeremy! Dog gone it! I should have recalled that graphics must be jpgs, NOT pdfs. Very clumsy of me. I appreciate your patience and the excellent technical support WordPress offers.
