I followed it step by step, and still nothing. Could someone please help me? I need to have this site up and running ASAP, but I can't get the music on.... -_-
A quick response would be much apreciated!!

Re: Adding Music problem
Hi, you will need to replace bgsound.mp3 with the direct link to your music file. Please be careful that you do not play any copyrighted music that you do not have permission to distribute.
Re: Adding Music problem
Ok, let me try it...
UPDATE:
Still doesn't work...
Yes, the name of my music file is bgsound.mp3...
Quick response? ..

Re: Adding Music problem
Correct me if im wrong. But i don't think you can add the music from your computer. I think it needs to be an actual link somewhere online.

You can't use the file from your computer! You must upload it online first.

Re: Adding Music problem
I tried your code on my forum and it caused my forum to redirected to the download page on mediafire.
Re: Adding Music problem
well, apparently these people don't know what they're talking about to lead me to a solution if it's leading you to a download lol... Idfk..

Posting consecutively is not tolerated unless separated by 24 hours since the last post. In future, please use the edit button.
Try using FileDen, that always works for me.

Re: Adding Music problem
Still nothing... By the way , so you know, it's not a portal page, I want it specifically on the forums, you're able to do that right? ...
Doesn't work anyways..
UPDATE:
Added a portal... Now it shows it exists but it's saying i need a plug called apple quick time, but I already have that?....
Link to my forum, see if you can hear it?: http://pgforums.4rumer.com/

Re: Adding Music problem
AND....nothing..
Come on guys, I really want this, and it seems no one even knows how to put music on this!
If somebody wanted to do it real fast who knew how, I could set you up as an admin real quick... No worries, I have back ups stored and w/e, so all good

Re: Adding Music problem

I added music on my arcade page yesterday.I put the code below into a widget
<embed src="bgsound.mp3" autostart="true" loop="true" hidden="true">
just replace bgsound3 with the url of your song.

Re: Adding Music problem
Yous are going about it the hard way.
You should just get a pod bean account or you have to upload to a free mp3 uploading host. Like mentioned above fileden should work but i thought they charged now.
Anyway, you can play all the music you want on your forums.There is no violation in uploading a mp3 to a mp3 host and adding it to a player to be played on your forum.
But now if you are uploading music and have the option for others to download for free, then and only then is it a violation.
So i would suggest getting a free pod bean account, they allow 35 mb for free, which is plenty for a small list and you can always delete songs and upload new ones after a while.
http://www.podbean.com/
or if you like to make things real easy.
You can go here, do a search for what song you are looking for, grab the code and done deal.. all free for use. and you can always change the dimensions to 1x1 to make it appear hidden, Just be sure you get a copy that will auto start for that.. sometimes you have to try a few different versions they have there but works well.
you just put the captcha in, agree to the terms hit enter and search for what ever your looking for.

Re: Adding Music problem
where do you want the music to play and what forum versions are you using?
do you want it in the background of every page, or just the home page ,portal html page or somewhere else?
