Great little player, I know you are going to do a widget…. do you have and ETA on that being done?
Can we use it in a “text” widget now using the shortcode?
Hi Mark
Just use a text widget and drop the shortcode in should work fine.

hi
i love your plugin. just wondered how to make it not start playing a tune automatically.
thanks
Hi – Great post and very interesting plugin. I have not seen anthing like this before.
Whilst this does not relate directly to your plugin are the costs competitively priced on amazon s3?
thanks
Amazon s3 is considerably cheaper in my opinion than all the other competitors you can view the pricing here. http://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/
Hi, Ive hit a problem ( maybe you can help ). I set up a bucket, added a folder to which i added an MP3 file which has permission to be public.
I set up the plugin with the security details, same bucket name however the folder associated with that bucket is not displayed in the folder list option. Nothing is.
I saved – refreshed browser still no folder, tried with no folder and the still no mp3 is displayed.
really keen to showcase this plugin – any advice is appreciated.
Kind regards
Ricky
This would be awesome for buddypress with members having their own accounts and the player being on their profile page.. Is that possible?
Yes definitely possible working on something similar to that at the moment should release in two weeks.
For all those having issues with it not working.
Their seems to be an issue with the encoding on some amazon keys.
If you can edit the source code open playlist.php in the plugin folder and then just enter your secret key and amazon key manually.
edit these lines.
//AWS access info
if (!defined(‘awsAccessKey’)) define(‘awsAccessKey’, $store[0]);
if (!defined(‘awsSecretKey’)) define(‘awsSecretKey’, $store[1]);
to
//AWS access info
if (!defined(‘awsAccessKey’)) define(‘awsAccessKey’, ‘enter your amazon key here’);
if (!defined(‘awsSecretKey’)) define(‘awsSecretKey’, ‘enter your secret key here’);
Hope this helps you.
Hi Sam
I followed the instruction and edited the playlist.php file to show the access key and secret key but still no folder is visible in the backend.
Anything else that I can try?
Ricky
Hi Sam,
Really ken to get this working, are you able to provide any further assistance?
kind Regards
Ricky

whoah this blog is fantastic i like reading your articles. Keep up the good work! You know, lots of individuals are looking round for this info, you can aid them greatly.
I installed this on a website I am doing for a band and they love it.
One issue: Can we turn off the “auto-play” functionality??
How would I go about doing this???

This is a great add on ! Thank you. 2 Quick questions, will you be making it available to drag and drop in the Widget Area ? Secondly, is there any way to control the volume so that it’s not defaulted to the highest ?
