I guess in the above the carriage returns were eliminated. what I tried to show is

[playlist id=1]

>
>
>
>

[media id=1]

(where “>” is hitting enter)

Works for me I have this:

[playlist id=1]

[media id=1]

What you need to watch out for is the space/layout. If the dimensions of the playlist take half the page for example, or the whole page, this might cover the media player so you won’t see it. Try putting a few returns between the two tages and see if you get to see the media player. For example:

[playlist id=1]

[media id=1]

let me know if this helps- good luck

can’t you use any ftp client like Filezilla whereby you and your clients share files from/to a common directory on your web host? You can setup different authorizations and different user groups so that some can read but not write to certain directories, etc…

I have the same problem – unable to play mp3 file with proplayer- keeps complaining that file not found even though if I copy the path in another browser file is found and is played.

[audio src="https://www.ziadrizk.com/Music/test.mp3" /]

I also reduced the bitrate to 128. Is it possible that proplayer doesn’t work with 2.8.4?
Any help is greatly appreciated – been at this for some hours now..
thanks

Thank you – this issue is resolved (even though I’m not able to change status to Resolved for some reason)

Need to clear browser cache after changing the code

Yes I had a similar issue and fixed it by going to the DB and making a change to the value in the table – consistent with Peter’s suggestion.

On your hosting website, under domain management, can you change the domain mapping so that it points to https://domainname.com/wordpress?

the above was the problem- unzip with absolute directory path ( as stupid as it is, it took me 3 days to figure it out!) beware WinZip!

When u unzipped the original file, did you get subdirectory structures(directories wp-content, wp-includes, etc…) or did it put all files flat in one directory? This is important otherwise the files will not be found when doing the installation – I had that problem and spent 3 days in circles until I figured it out.

Winzip has a feature to maintain absolute path directory- make sure that when unzipping you get the subdirectories and not all files in a flat structure. I inadvertently did that and files were not being found during installation.

I unzipped the tar file (instead of untarring) which put all files in one directory-flat structure. Now I suspect that that might be the cause of the problem as it seems that there are various subdirectory structures where the files out to reside- can anyone pls confirm? I also searched online for an untar utility but all were for Mac OS. Anyone knows where i can get one for Windows XP? Thanks

Don’t know if that’s any relevant to you, but I tried installing (fresh) 2.8.4 and it keeps on failing, keeps complaining that it can’t located the wp-load.php file (permissions on all files allow execution and ftp’d using ASCII mode, wp-config.php is correct so far as i can tell)

I’m running on windows XP on my laptop and uploading to Pair Networks which provides services exclusively utilizing the FreeBSD UNIX operating system- not sure if I’ve answered your question. Thanks

Thanks Kailash- but I did just that, uploaded the files in ASCII mode on the ftp client, and unfortunately I still get the same error. Could it be a problem with the web host I wonder (pair.com)? My account should support PHP and I’ve setup the MySQL DB…. Any other ideas/insights are greatly appreicated, (getting desperate) Thanks
