ToneDen Player Shortcode

Description

We built a sweet new version of the SoundCloud embeddable player! Check out the details at https://www.toneden.io/player. This plugin will let you embed our player into your WordPress blog just as easily as the SoundCloud player- in fact, if you’ve used the SoundCloud Shortcode Plugin, you can replace the [soundcloud] tags with [tonedenplayer] tags and the ToneDen player will automatically replace the SoundCloud player (though any custom styles you applied to the SoundCloud player won’t apply to the ToneDen player).

Screenshots

  • This is the 'light' theme with the 'bars' visualizer.
  • This is the 'aurora' theme.

Installation

  1. Upload the toneden-player-shortcode directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Create an HTML <div> where you want to render the player, and give it a unique id, e.g. <div id="player">player will render here</div>.
  4. Embed the player with shortcode: [tonedenplayer dom="#player" skin="light" visualizertype="waves"]https://soundcloud.com/flume/sintra[/tonedenplayer].
  5. You can provide SoundCloud tracks as a comma-separated list of URLs. The URLs can point to an artist, set, single track, or any combination of the three. The URLs parameter can be provided either between the [toneden] tags ([tonedenplayer dom="#player"]https://soundcloud.com/giraffage,https://soundcloud.com/flume/sintra[/tonedenplayer]) or as a ‘urls’ parameter in the shortcode ([tonedenplayer dom="#player" urls="https://soundcloud.com/giraffage,https://soundcloud.com/flume/sintra"]).

FAQ

This is too technical! Help.

Feel free to email us at support (at) toneden.io if you need any help setting up the player.

How can I customize the player?

You can choose from 4 different skins, and 2 different visualizer types. For a more extensive overview of the different configuration parameters available, view the documentation at https://github.com/ToneDen/toneden-sdk. NOTE: Parameters that are in camelCase in the GitHub documentation are in all lowercase in the shortcode version.

What’s ToneDen?

Good question. We make it really easy to turn musicians’ SoundCloud accounts into awesome websites, and give them the tools they need to market themselves.
