Nice upgrade. However, I want to place the radio on every page, is this possible? It looks like this is just for forumhome.Thanx

You should be able to move the hook location from formhome_compleet to global_start. In the settings area of the hack change the location to "custom".

This will allow you to place $scast in say the header template or navbar template that shows up on each page.

That works nicely in the navbar Thank you very much

FYI it doesnt work with the CMPS even when you ask it pull the navbar :S

[pixie]

This version will be compatible for Icecast ?

pleeeeeeeaaaaasseeeeeeeeeeeee

Hey Zachariah,

thanks for the update, its working fine.
I have currently two streams I want to show.
Is there a way that you release an update where we can enter more than one server?

Great work! Thanks a lot Zachariah. Blends in much nicer than the other web radio products out there.
