Features:

Embeds a Last.FM Group playlist into your site, on a new page.
[BUGFIXED] Adds a navbar link option.
Adds "Info" fields next to the embedded player, customisable from the admincp
Adds links to your group on the same page.
[New in 1.0.1b] Adds Dropdown Menu Option
[New in 1.0.1b] Can now select user personal playlist
[New in 1.0.1b] Can now select artist similar artist playlist
[New in 1.0.1b] Group now clickable
[New in 1.0.1b] Multi Radio Player Ability (not reccommended)

Troubleshooting:

I get "Not enough content", why?

1] Are you logged into last.fm?
2] Does your group have more than 2 members and has it been up for more than a week?
3] Does the artist you've chosen exist?
4] Does the user you've chosen exist?

If you answered "no", to either of those, feel free to use my group (http://last.fm/group/parlancia), or try out a popular group/artist/user on last.fm.

Upgrading:

If upgrading from 1.0.0a, simply reupload radio.php, and overwrite it and upload the product.xml, overwriting it.

This is really restrictive since it only allows Group play.

Thanks anyway !!

Well, now I have the basecode, I can make this work for a /user/ thing, I'll release that as an add on soon.

Actually, as I investigate more into it the Group setting, while restrictive, is a usable idea for the time being.

Thanks.

Pandora is US only, so I can't get that code, but I'll see what I can do.

Possibly an issue with last.fm but I am unable to get this to work.

When I view the page on my forum it returns an error saying can not play this station.

Your group (http://www.last.fm/group/The+Swollen+Cranium) has 2 members, and no plays. I'd think that's why there isn't enough content to play. This message could also occur if you're not logged into last.fm. Feel free to use my group (http://www.last.fm/group/Parlancia) and see if it plays..

No, it doesn't work for you, it DOES work, I've been USING it ever since I made it, I hate when someone comes in a thread and condemns something which I know to work.

The Navbar link should work, but if it doesn't, check out the add-on, where you can add the radio player as a drop down.

As for the "Not enough content", heres some troubleshooting:

1] Are you logged into last.fm?
2] Does your group have more than 2 members and has it been up for more than a week?

Sorry if I came across as that. Sorry you couldn't get it working.. I looked on your site and couldn't see the mod so I couldn't look at any errors.. Wing me a PM on your site and I'll take a look if you like (i'm mikey on there)

Gotta read into Last.fm and how that works (similar to Pandora?). I'd love to add this if there are enough theme park or Disney related tracks :up:

I'm going to be making a version with pandora functionality if I can get the feed RSS code, pandora is US only, and I'm located outside of the US, so I can't get the code.

I was unaware of the time on target requirement.

Thanks for your help.

Update :

This is now working for me but it took me buying a subscription, 2 days of waiting , 9 group members and over 100 songs played before Last/FM would aggregate my data into a recommended list.

I'm not sure if this is normal behavior for others.

The song playcount and the waiting time and the members should be expected, the radio needs content to play it, however, my group was founded back in 07 and has thousands of plays, so I wouldn't know. As for the subscription, I'm not sure why that was needed, as it works fine for me..

Thanks for coming back and confirming it works though. I'm currently working on v1.0.1b

Awesome - BUT please phrase it completely:

Welcome to the

Join our Group!

Note, you may need a last.fm account, or be logged into last.fm to listen.

Feature Request:

It was nice if Users can add their own Channel at their UserCP and display it at their Profilepage and have a Last.FM Icon at Postbit (like Skype, ICQ and so on).

Why does it need phrasing, for so little phrases?

Ever seen a Product with broken Languages across the Forums? :eek:

Every Product should take care of 2 Points for quality Reasons:

1. Product without any Fileedits.

2. 100% phrased.

And BTW - why should you not phrase them if they are so little phrases. ;)
