Trouble embedding audio tracks

  • Hi, I posted an audio track from Bandcamp in my wordpress and it worked. Great. But then I tried posting a second audio track from Soundcloud, and it shows up… as the same track I posted before from Bandcamp. I installed Soundcloud Shortcode and WP Bandcamp after all this, and this has fixed nothing. In fact, even if I don’t combine the two, and try to post a different track from Bandcamp… it reposts the same track! Help?

  • Hi there! ??

    I’m not sure how much help I can be on this issue, but I’ll try.

    1) Can you link to your website with an example post of the two supposedly different sound clips all linking to the same clip?

    2) After embedding the two different audio tracks, have you checked the source code to make sure there aren’t any code errors within that post?

    I am wondering if maybe the first embed’s code wasn’t properly closed and so when you did the next one, the first code leaked into the second one.

    3) Have you ever had trouble embedding different clips in a single post before?

    I’ve discovered that if I use the straight HTML in the code section, it displays correctly in IE, but not Firefox. Here’s the link:

    Yeah I checked the code. The attributes seem to be closed like they should. This is the first time I’ve tried to use two different external audio links with anything.

    Hi there again!

    Admittedly, I’m kind of stumped.

    I tried to replicate the issue on my own install using a fairly barebones theme (without any in-house custom functions and without any plugins save for the Developer plugin) and couldn’t; I embedded two different songs from Bandcamp and Soundcloud and was successful.

    Some people have reported issues with using the Visual Editor since the last change to 3.9. It might be possible – for whatever reason – that using the Visual Editor perhaps strips out some necessary coding tags or some such.

    When you turn off Visual Editor and attempt to embed videos that way, does it work?

    Edit: Additionally, do you have any caching plugins? If you do, does disabling it/them do anything?
