Audio Player Plugin for Mango Blog
Project Home • Known Issues • Contact Project
Author: Bret Feddern (All RIAForge projects by this author) Description:
This plugin was developed to play an audio file within a blog post. Using a few tags within a post or a page, this plugin will display a Google audio player with a page or post that will play an MP3 file within the content.
It features an admin page to control certain features on the plugin. TAGS Here are the tags you would use in your posts/pages. [podcast]http://example-website.com/theAudioFile.mp3[/podcast] [podcast] - This tag displays the podcast player and any subscribe links included. The link in between the start and end tag is an example of the audio link to your mp3 file. The plugin searches the post for the tag. If it finds the tag match, it performs logic to grab the link from the tag and use it in player. [podcastlist][/podcastlist] - This beginning and end tag will display an archive podcast list on a Page. By using this start/end tag on a Page, it will display the archive list of related posts within the content of that page. ADMIN SETTINGS Post Heading - A field that allows for a custom heading to be inserted above the audio player when using the [podcast] tag within a blog post. If a heading is not wanted, simply leave this field blank. Page Heading - A field that allows for a custom heading to be inserted above the audio archive when using the [podcastlist] tags within a blog Page. Post Category - A field that tells the plugin which category to use when pulling the archive that displays on a page when using the [podcastlist] tag. If the plugin finds a match, it uses the built in dynamic Mango Blog features to query the database for a particular category of posts to display. iTunes Subscribe Link - A field that stores a subscribe link to a podcast on iTunes, so people can subscribe. Player Width - A field that stores the default width in pixels for the audio player when embedded into a post. Player Height - A field that stores the default height in pixels for the audio player when embedded into a post. Include Download Link in Post - A field that allows the option of including a download link to the audio file being playing by the audio player. Include Subscribe Links in Post - A field that allows the option of including the subscribe links that are stored in the admin. ToDo List: - Make [podcastlist] tag work on posts, too (currently only pages) - Include Player options (so not just Google Player) - Sidebar functionality (so it works in a sidebar)
