This BB Code will allow users to have a small mp3 player in:
Posts in the forums
Signatures i.e. Song of the day/week etc.
anywhere you can use BB Code Tags
I found this while browsing: http://www.phpbb3bbcodes.com as I have some phpBB boards of my own and was tinkering as usual . It was rather simple to add as a BB Code to VBulletin and did not take much time to make it work in vB via the {param} tags etc!
Credit for the Code goes to phpbb3codes.com and the creator of the .swf player i.e. djgalix!
Time to install: 1-2 mins
Instructions:
Download the .zip and extract the SWF player
Upload the player_mp3.swf into your forum root folder
*The Player .swf file HAS to be in your forums ROOT folder, this will make it NOT visible in AdminCP as that is another folder i.e. admincp folder BUT it will display FINE in the forums via FireFox and Internet Explorer! (Thanks for the catching that bug where it did not display joh!)
Now use the tags [mp3]Full Song URL Here![/mp3]
*Experienced Users can take the code replacement and hard code into forums where desired!

Oh well!
Ahh HostGator, I bet it's the mod securities they have enabled on your server, if you have had other problems (specifically with vBa CMPS or vBa Links etc) then you must have them disable the mod securities. This mod also will not work if you have DJ's AME Mod installed.
For some who cannot get the mod to work etc, it is usally the AME mod, a Mod Security enabled on your server per your host OR something in your .htaccess file.
Replace the yoururl with your url, note I left the .com so if you are .net or .org change that, also leave the www as-is unless you have something setup like forums.yoursite.com etc etc.
Hope that helps some, and remember to always PM me if I do not reply promptly to your posts.
Glad you like it however be sure to check for other mp3 players on here too, I have found a few while browsing so make sure it's the one you REALLY want .
Was the code I added and the swf player is in the root folder.
Help!
If you feel ok w/ it, make a temp admin account, all I need is access to the bb codes, nothing more. I can redo the url to pull from my site, if it works we know it's something conflicting on your site. I would like to verify it is in the proper folder in the FTP but you don't need to give out access to everyone if you know what I mean , practice safe habits eh?
Let me know by PM and if you wish for me to check your site PM the temp details. If it is something and I have to host it myself it's only a $5 donation via the support developer on the right in one of my mod descriptions.
Sorry it did not work, double check everything again just to make sure, your code however matches the code in the top post above so until I see behind the scenes I'm stumped too .
Hi. When I press play, another window appear with the same mp3.
Any idea?
That's new to me... if you wish I can take a look at it, if so admicp access to bb codes most importantly and FTP access to verify files were uploaded correctly. Send via PM if so and I'll check this thread in about 10-15 mins I have to make a quick trip to the store for the wife some coffee creamer to use in the morning and well honestly for me to use tonight
Yeah.. redo it and make sure all info matches because it's not supposed to have two players as you pointed out but also when you click play/pause it opens the songs in a new window too, not made to do that . Let me know if you want me to take a look in the morning, about to get off the computer for the night, had enough of it today .
