Additional Functionality in Theme, if possible?

    Hi,
    I’ll try to explain in short:
    – My site is https://www.orangefreesounds.com/
    In all posts (except 3 scrolling on main page) I used core WP player for mp3 reproduction.
    What I need: ability to play sound that is “inside the post” from main page, without “entering the post”- something like “sound preview” – this means “1 click less”.
    -Examples:
    1- https://freesound.org/ – play button on post preview (inside the post is separate player)
    2- https://www.audioblocks.com/ – even better – play & sound preview “On Mouse Over”
    Both sites are not in WordPress, as much as I can see.

    Not looking for “ready-made” solution (such as plugin – not bad if somebody knows some :), just to point me in right direction. Do I need additional CSS class, some work in PhP, Java Script, jQuery?
    Any help mostly appreciated – I’ll share the results here, if I succeed.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    Just to mark thread resolved….
    I had to do it myself – no help last 4 months ??
    No plugin, just WP implementation of great https://www.schillmania.com/projects/soundmanager2/ – SM 2 library by Scott Schiller https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2Tw0BeZb8Q
    (thanks Scott, had great time playing with SM 2)

    For anyone interested:
    -some PhP to get SM 2 working + PhP code for reading sounds “inside the post” from post preview mode
    – CSS for colors & makeup
    -abandoned idea “on mouse over” player – though it’s easy to implement also
    That’s about all.
