playing sound files in VB 3.7.1

[Noosphere]

Newb alert.

I spent years participating and modding a vbulletin board (never used the admin cp or did any coding). On that board, in order to embed a sound file, all you had to do was to put either [sound].....[/sound] or [waver]......[/waver] tags around the url location of the sound file. That was it.... However, on our new board, this doesn't work. I know - probably a stupid question (yes - they exist!) and simple answer (they always are when you know them!). Help a learnin' brother out.

You know its apparently REALLY a stupid question when you get lots of views, and cricket-chirps. Bummer. I've looked in all the obvious places .... nothing related to sound files playing/not playing....and I don't see anything in the admin cp settings that references them. I really always thought the bb tags and url were all that was necessary (at least for basic sound files (wavs, mp3, midi, etc..)...

There is nothing about playing sound files in default vBulletin. You could create customised BBCode to play the sound files, most likely it would be possible to find the HTML code to do so on Google. Then use that HTML code as the custom BBCode replacement.

Or you could try: AnyMedia BBCode for 3.5.x,simple any-title *.mp3 BBCode or more by searching the mods section.
