Hello,
Ive been attempting to embed sound cloud but each attempt has been unsuccessful. I have used the short code provided, used the sound cloud embed as well as the url each attempt was unsuccessful. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Try this:

[pf_lightbox_audio title="Soundcloud embed" url="http://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F207988&"]

Note: Select Lightbox Audio from the Details box.

Thanks for the replay. I tried that and its giving me “401-Unauthorized”.

[Mehmet S.]

Use that shortcode only for a portfolio item.

[Antione Jackson]

Right, which I am. Under portfolio/add new. Even after copying and pasting your link to see if it would work, I got the same 401-unauthorized.

Here is my usage on the demo site.

That worked. Are you using the direct URL or embed because this is what my links look like and they are not working.

Embed

WordPress
[soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/113143465?secret_token=s-BSN5Q” params=”color=ff6600&auto_play=false&show_artwork=true” width=”100%” height=”166″ iframe=”true” /]

Are you using the Embed, WordPress or direct Url? Ive attempted all 3 and nothing will work but for some reason, you link posted above worked perfectly.

[Mehmet S.]

In this theme, there is no that shortcode you wrote above: [soundcloud]

[Antione Jackson]

Yes I know. I was showing the difference between my embed and yours. Are you using the Embed , wordpress or URL link?

Ive used all 3 and nothing has worked. for example

[pf_lightbox_audio title=”Soundcloud embed” url=”https://soundcloud.com/beatsbyone/smokin-purple”%5D

[pf_lightbox_audio title=”Soundcloud embed” url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/117808324?secret_token=s-cZYV7″ params=”color=ff6600&auto_play=false&show_artwork=true” width=”100%” height=”166″ iframe=”true”]

Hi, you need to copy the src attribute in the embed code.

– Click “Share” on an item on soundcloud
– Navigate to “Embed” tab
– Copy the value of the “src” attiribute in the “Embed Code” field.
– Paste it to the url attribute in the shortcode;

[pf_lightbox_audio title="Soundcloud embed" url="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/62549783&color=ff6600&auto_play=false&show_artwork=true"]

[Mehmet S.]
