Posts with old audio tag not showing player

  • Hi,
    I’ve discovered that old posts (can’t tell you exactly how old) posts are not showing player in frontend. In these posts audio tag is like:

    [audio:https://….mp3|titles=lorem_ipsum.mp3]

    This tag is working in backend, in HTML editor it shows player, and it works. But not in frontend. In frontend, to make them work I’ve to change tag to:

    [audio mp3="....mp3"][/audio]

    The problem is that I’ve got a lot of entries with old tag. Any ideas why are not working in fronted? I don’t use any plugin for audio.

    Thank you!

  • Hey rubenmgar,

    The tag you are using is right [audio mp3="....mp3"][/audio]. It should work.
    Is it not working for old posts only or it’s also not working for newly added posts as you have mentioned

    I’ve discovered that old posts (can’t tell you exactly how old) posts are not showing player in frontend.

    Try deactivating all plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

    If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the default theme for your version of WordPress to rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

    Good Luck

    Hi Juhi,
    the fact is that in my old posts the tag is [audio:https://….mp3|titles=lorem_ipsum.mp3]. This tag is not working now. When I insert an audio in a new post tag is OK, [audio mp3="....mp3"][/audio]. But it seems that a months ago when I inserted audio the tag was working.

    Thank you!

    Hey rubenmgar,

    This old audio tag will not work by default. Did you use any plugin previously and deactivated or deleted that recently.

    I would suggest you to update the audio tag or if you were using any plugin then revert to that plugin.

    Thanks
    Juhi
