Thanks, sterndata.

Solving the Javascript error solved the issue.

Hey everyone.

My page with the audio is:

Another, older post that had one was:

Hope that helps. Eager for your feedback!

Hi Tara!

I don’t know about puntlandes, but for me, no, I’ve been using WordPress’s default functionality —

‘Add Media’, choose MP3 file, ‘Insert’.

The really curious thing to me is the <audio> html is being generated. I’m seeing it when I view my pages’ source. So I’m really baffled as to why it’s not working anymore.

And it seems to be a cross-browser issue too — Firefox, Chrome, IE, Safari, all fail. It’s strange.

Hey puntlandes!

I found your post by googling about the same issue on my site.

Yup, it’s exactly as you described — I’ve been using the default, WordPress functionality to deal with audio files. Just upload my MP3 and let WordPress’s editor turn it into the actual <audio> tag on the frontend.

But today I noticed that the audio player isn’t appearing. The HTML for it still seems to exist when I look at my webpages’ source, but the player just isn’t appearing.

I tested in other browsers, and it seems to be the same across them all.

My only guess is maybe it’s something to do with the recent update. I recently installed WordPress 4.5 . Perhaps it’s a bug?

Tell me, puntlandes, did you also recently update?

Hi!

You’re in the list view of the Media Library, right?

There’s a ‘Filename’ field now available to you. Enter a new name there, check the checkbox next to the item(s) you wish to rename, then choose ‘Rename’ from the Bulk Actions select box.

The files rename via AJAX, so after a few moments you’ll see green, confirmation icons appear next to the filenames.

I’m on version 4.3.1 as well and it works for me.

Just a follow up to my posts yesterday.

I gave Justified Image Grid a second chance, this time with the website on a fast server and using Justified Image Grid’s ‘Load More’ feature. It seems the plugin itself had been upgraded since my last use too.

So far it’s working quite well for galleries with a few hundred pictures. Loading much faster than my previous experience with it.

I’m using it with WordPress’s built-in ‘Create Gallery’ tools, and not NextGen.

^ I made a mistake. Envira 1.2 was good. When I upgraded to 1.3, things started going wrong.

Hey!

I have a similar problem. I’m managing a marathon website which has several galleries of eight hundred or more photographs each, and it’s been a real headache trying to find the right solution.

I’d used pure NextGen originally, but I didn’t like how the galleries displayed (I prefer ‘masonry’ layout because there’s so many pictures).

The version 2.0 of Envira Gallery was okay, but they recently upgraded and version 3.0 seems very buggy so far. It’s quite frustrating to upload a couple hundred photos only to have Envira not remember the settings no matter how many times I re-save them. And yes, I’m on the paid version. Quite disappointing. It also crashes my mobile phone when there are more than a dozen photographs.

Justified Image Grid is quite good to partner with NextGen, because it has a ‘load more’ feature which can be handy for the large numbers. Only problem is it sometimes takes a long time to load (sometimes a full minute) and no viewer is going to hang around that long. (I have to confirm if it’s JSI that’s slow though, or actually that website’s server.)

Very frustrating. If you can figure out something, please shoot me a message.

northpool, you could hide it with CSS.

They cleverly gave the start and end times classes in the source code, so you could use your stylesheet to hid their appearance on your website.

.sc_event_time_sep{display:none;}
.sc_event_end_time{display:none;}
