Nazdrave-MP3
Nazdrave-MP3 is a Wordpress plugin which allows you to embed an Adobe Flash MP3-player in your blog, using simple [mp3] tags like this:
[mp3]/wp-content/uploads/malmsteen - amberdawn.mp3[/mp3]
This plugin supports passing tag attributes to the player, like standard HTML. Here’s an example:
[mp3 autostart=“true” repeat=“true”]song.mp3[/mp3]
A full list of all attributes accepted is available here
CREDITS
This plugin uses Jeroen Wijering’s JW MP3 PLAYER v3.99. It was heavily inspired by MP3-o-Matic!, which I tried to modify to suit my needs, but I reached a point where I have replaced almost all of the initial code, so it was actually another plugin! Currently the only thing that remains from MP3-o-Matic is the tag syntax ([mp3][/mp3]).
The plugin also makes use of Geoff Stearns’ Javascript SWFObject.
DOWNLOAD
The most current version is 1.2
Download nazdrave-mp3-1.2.zip (36.1KB)
INSTALL
Just extract the contents of this archive to the “wp-content/plugins” directory of your blog. Then go to the Plugins page of your admin screen and activate the plugin.
USE
It’s really simple - if you don’t want any fancy control over the player, just enter the URL of any MP3 file in the post/page editor, and surround it with [mp3][/mp3] tags, just like a HTML link. The only limitation is the file location - it must be a valid URL (either absolute or relative), because the player runs on the client machine and must be able to get the file via Internet. So, you can’t point to a file outside the document root. You can, however, point to a file on another site, if you specify the full URL (like http://example.com/file.mp3).
You can use the player in your posts and pages, but not in comments (I have some plans for this, watch out for the new version! 
).
VERSION LOG
1.01:
Since I’ve lost my original source code, this is a complete rewrite of the plugin. The functionality is the same though, so I changed only the subversion code
1.02:
Updated the JW MP3 Player to version 3.99
1.1 (24/Nov/2007):
This one’s for all of you standard-freaks out there
(cheers to all of you! 
)
The plugin is now XHTML compliant! Thanks to Geoff Stearns’ SWFObject, the plugin outputs just SPAN and SCRIPT tags, which means it conforms with pretty much every HTML/XHTML standard today. The old version produced the more common EMBED, OBJECT and PARAM tags, which made all XHTML validators go nuts
Another benefit from the use of SWFObject is that the IE7 users no longer need to click the player in order to use it. As you may know, some time ago Microsoft released an update to IE7 which requires the user to activate the user interfaces of ActiveX controls prior to using them. Fortunately, this applies only to static APPLET, EMBED, and OBJECT elements, but not to controls created by external scripts. By using SWFObject the plugin gets round this problem and enables the user to directly interact with the player.
1.2 (19/Jan/2008):
Happy new year with this new version, it’s a bugfix release for an issue occurring when the “Blog address” and “WordPress address” in your blog’s options are different. If you have given WordPress its own directory as described here, the previous version of the plugin wouldn’t work for you. Credit goes to Ryan for spotting this problem. Cheers, mate
FUTURE PLANS
- Playlists
- An options page in the admin, specifying default attributes and some other settings
- Ability to put a player in comments
- Checking for and applying updates

Do you have version 2 of your MP3 player available. The one on myflashfetish.com?Thanks!
April 18th, 2007 at 15:50
@SoulSmasher: Yes, swapping the .swf file should work

Is it possible to use your plugin to do playlists like you can if you embed with the Flash MP3 Player? Or can you only do one file at a time?

Поздравления за плъгина! Много е добър. Само едно нещо му липсваше и за това му направих малка модификация. Проблема е, че не се валидизира страницата, ако се използва този плъгин. В моя блог съм постнал една публикация какво съм направил: http://www.stylius.net/?p=39

@Stylius: Поздравления и на теб! Метода с OBJECT тага е наистина добро предложение
Виж описанието на версия 1.1
Успях да намеря и друг начин да направя плъгина съвместим със стандартите, който обаче има и друг, доста полезен страничен ефект

I keep getting “Go get Adobe Flash Player!” instead of the flash player. I know I have the latest version of Flash, and I have a valid mp3 file. What am I missing? I tested in Safari and Firefox on a Mac.
December 18th, 2007 at 08:25
I’m getting the same result as Pete. Downloaded the Flash 9 plugin and still get the result.
December 18th, 2007 at 11:16
Guys, could you please give me some more details on the Macs you’re using? The plugin seems to work fine on our iMac in the office, and I don’t have access to another one for testing.
December 18th, 2007 at 18:27
Sorry for that. I’m on 10.4.11 running Safari 3 and FF 2.0.0.11. It was the upgrade from 1.0 that broke it for me. Thanks for the quick reply

Got some time to debug the issue and it turns out it wasn’t finding my wp installation correctly as my blog address and wp install address are different. Changed (in mp3.php) the $url var on line 46 from get_bloginfo(’url’) to get_bloginfo(’wpurl’)
This fixed the url issue. Then found that the $path var on line 20 was doing the same thing when finding the media file location. Changed the var in the function on line 78 from so.addVariable(”file”, “$path”); to so.addVariable(”file”, “main$path”);
Now the player’s play and pause buttons are on top of each other. Haven’t figured this out. Hope this helps. You can see what I mean at http://ryanfitzer.com/?p=587
I’ll post back when I figure that part out.
December 23rd, 2007 at 23:40
The player button problem was the result of trying to play an .m4a file. Once I encoded it as an .mp3 things went back to normal. Sorry for all the smiley faces up there.

Ryan, thanks about pointing out the “url” vs “wpurl” issue! You are absolutely right
I’ll fix this as soon as I can

Very nice thank you friends.

Hi,
I am having trouble I with the plugin because of a setting I have inside of Wordpress. My wordpress address (URL) is different from my Blog Address (URL) so when the swbobject goes to find the mp3player its looking for it at the Blog Address and not the wordpress address. In other words,
http://www.mywebsite/blogaddress/postitle (Blog address) would look like this
http://www.mywebsite/news/something-interesting
http://www.mywebsite/wordpressaddress/postitle (wordpress address)
http://www.mywebsite/wordpress/something-interesting
This is what happens and the script doesnt account for the setting in wordpress to allow you the security feature of making your visible blog address different from that of your wordpress address
Any help would be most appreciated!!
Thanks!!!

Hi Tony,
Version 1.2 fixes this issue. You should give it a try.
