<p><em>WP SoundSystem</em> is a complete solution to manage music in WordPress.</p>
<p>Import, create and manage tracklists, play tracks, connect to popular music services, and more !</p>
<p><a href="https://www.spiff-radio.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">See it working on Spiff Radio</a></p>
<p>Unlike most plugins, WP SoundSystem is <em>not</em> embedding third-party widgets in WordPress.<br />
It goes <em>further</em> by using its own <strong>customizable player</strong> : no brands, no logos, but <strong>your own data & design</strong> !</p>
<p>Playing tracks does not rely on a single service, since multiple links can be associated to a track (Youtube, Soundcloud, Spotify, audio files, anything!).</p>
<h4>Tracklists</h4>
<p>We have two types of tracklists : Playlists, and Radios.</p>
<h4>But what the hell are Radios ?</h4>
<p>Unlike Playlists, you cannot add, remove or reorder the tracks of a Radio : it is synced with an external URL, and updates seamlessly after a user-defined delay.  This is something very specific to this plugin.</p>
<p><a href="http://spiff-radio.org/?post_type=wpsstm_radio&tag=editors-pick&author=1" rel="nofollow ugc">Check some Radios on Spiff Radio</a></p>
<p>For example, a Radio might be</p>
<ul>
<li>Synced to a station website “now playing” page, cached for only 15 minutes since it is updated constantly on the remote side.</li>
<li>Synced to a Spotify playlist, cached for 1 day (or more) since there is only a few chances that its author might have updated it.</li>
</ul>
<p>A Radio synced with a Spotify playlist of yours would bring an always up-to-date playlist to your visitors, without having to update your website.</p>
<p>You can also create a Radio to fetch a tracklist you like, then convert it to a (static) Playlist so you have a backup of it.</p>
<p>Any tracklists can be exported to the standard <a href="http://xspf.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">XSPF</a> file format.</p>
<h4>Tracks</h4>
<p>Tracks can be favorited and shared by your users frontend, or added to a new playlist on-the-fly.<br />
Backend, you can query details from music services like <a href="https://musicbrainz.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">MusicBrainz</a> (The Open Music Encyclopedia) or Spotify.</p>
<h4>Tracks Links</h4>
<p>You can attach a bunch of links to any track; including links that can stream audio (Youtube, Soundcloud, audio files…) directly to our player!</p>
<h4>Autolink (requires an API key)</h4>
<p>If you don’t attach links to your track manually, you can enable our <em>autolink</em> module.<br />
It will search for remote links and attach them to your tracks automatically.</p>
<h4>Tracklist Importer</h4>
<p>Import <a href="http://xspf.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">XSPF playlists</a> using the <em>Tracklist Importer</em>.</p>
<p>If you have an <a href="https://github.com/gordielachance/wp-soundsystem/wiki/SoundSystem-API" rel="nofollow ugc">API key</a>, you could also import playlists from various services: <em>Last.fm, Spotify, SoundCloud, Deezer, Musicbrainz, Radionomy, Hypem, 8tracks, BBC, indieshuffle, Online Radio Box, radio.fr, RadioKing, Reddit, SomaFM, Soundsgood,…</em></p>
<p>Custom setups are also available, if you are somewhat familiar with <a href="https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp" rel="nofollow ugc">CSS selectors</a>.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.spiff-radio.org/?p=213" rel="nofollow ugc">Frontend Importer on Spiff Radio</a></p>
<h4>Player</h4>
<p>Our player uses of the <a href="https://www.mediaelementjs.com" rel="nofollow ugc">MediaElement.js</a> library, which is native in WordPress. It supports audio (& video) files, but also links from various services like Youtube or Soundcloud.<br />
It has been extended with various features built on top of it, like a tracks queue or a Last.fm scrobbler.<br />
You can customize the design of this player the way you like, and extend its functions.</p>
<h4>Social</h4>
<p><strong>Last.fm</strong><br />
In addition of being able to scrobble on <a href="https://www.last.fm/" rel="nofollow ugc">Last.fm</a>, every track favorited by a user connected to his account will also be loved on that service.</p>
<p><strong>BuddyPress</strong><br />
Users profiles will get a new music section that lists the user favorite tracks, tracklists, and the ones he created.<br />
It will also fire new <em>BuddyPress activity</em> items.</p>
<h4>Contribute</h4>
<p>WP SoundSystem is dev friendly, and has been designed to be extendable.<br />
Wanna give a hand as developer ? Check the <a href="https://github.com/gordielachance/wp-soundsystem" rel="nofollow ugc">Github</a> repo.</p>
<h4>SoundSystem API</h4>
<p>The <a href="https://github.com/gordielachance/wp-soundsystem/wiki/SoundSystem-API" rel="nofollow ugc">SoundSystem API</a> has been developed in Ruby in parallel of this plugin.<br />
Get extra features by registering an API key !</p>
<p>Some of its feature are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Playlist import from a lot of music services</li>
<li>the Autolink module, which will get audio sources for your tracks automatically.</li>
</ul>
<p>Those are optionals, but are nice features to a solid plugin.<br />
Consider getting one as a nice way to support the work done –hundred of hours– , and to ensure its durability.</p>
<p>Since the API is independent of the plugin, it might also be used by other developers.</p>
