zbPlayer

Description

zbPlayer is a very easy audio plugin – you can select some options like: include Download link or no, enable autoplay or no and setup width of player. Other things will be done by zbPlayer plugun automatically. One nice feature – player support cyrillic filenames without problem.

Known Issues

Sometime my .m4a fields doesn’t play. Why is it?

Unfortunately, some of .m4a files has nuances and cannot play by player. We can’t fix that. Use .mp3 files – they works always.

Screenshots

  • The minimized player.
  • The expanded player.

Installation

The most basic installation is a simple two step:

  1. Upload the zbplayer folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

That’s it, you’re done.

FAQ

Do I need to do anything special in my posts?

No, zbPlayer automatically converts any link to an mp3/m4a/m4b/mp4/wav file into player. So, if you put in <a href=”audio_file.mp3″>A Link</a> zbPlayer will automatically add a flash player on page.

Does player support cyrillic names for mp3 files?

Yes, here no problems with cyrillic filenames.
