Hi...

Im running a new 3.2 Joomla server, first time admin here and I desperately need to install the Soundcloud content plugin for use in articles. Can someone please point me to what I need to do for the install. From what I read the software is documented within itself so that part should be fine... I just can't get the install going.


Many thanks from cold, cold NYC,

Mike

Hi

It installs simply using the regular Joomla installer.

PLease provide details on what you don't understand.

- Need help? Post the URL of the related page (eventualy as confidential info), it will help solve your issue faster.
- An error, notice or warning? report the exact message including the line number
- If you get a white page , enable error reporting and / or check your server error logs.

I think I botched up the install process somehow.... this is my first extension installation. I downloaded and attempted to install but got a message that some installer instruction file was missing. Where did I go wrong?

Many thanks,

Mike

Hi,

I got the extension installed and selected the 3rd modus operandi from the pull down menu on the configuration pages.

I tried using my sound cloud generated url as follows:

[soundcloud url="
" params="auto_play=false&show_artwork=true&color=ff7700" width="100%" height="166" iframe="true" /]

Needless to say... it did not work... Where am I making my mistake?

Many thanks...

You must not use the params attribute you added.

ok... this is the code after your suggestion... it still does not work. Question... has anyone else other than the developer had any success with this plugin. I was about to suggest one of their retail products to someone but im apprehensive based on this one. No documentation is strange... it would probably save folks a lot of time if it existed.

This didnt work either... can someone help?

An increasingly frustrated new user...
