<li><strong>Save multiple users</strong>, very useful for labels, collectives or artists with many projects</li>
<li><strong>Live Preview</strong> let you see what does what instantly.</li>
<li><strong>Integrates perfectly</strong> with wordpress media upload by using the same listing style that you get with the images.</li>
<li><strong>Plugin construct the shortode for you</strong>, no need to remember any crasy syntax (but you can still use the shortcode manually if needed).</li>
<li><strong>Widget</strong> for showing the latest or random tracks, favourites or sets for one user, multiple users or random users.</li>
<li><strong>Track’s info</strong> displayed directly in the tab (description, url, cover, etc…).</li>
<li>Default settings from the option page (see screenshot):
<ul>
<li>Default player type (Standard, Artwork, Visual)</li>
<li>Width</li>

<h4>Advantages against pasting embed code from soundcloud and other plugins</h4>
<ul>
<li>By changing the main settings in the options, all players on your site using the default settings will change. If green isn’t trendy anymore and purple is the new orange, it won’t be a problem and you will keep your street credibility.</li>
<li>If Soundcloud update their player or release an even cooler new player that let you scratch your track while streaming to snapchat, I will most defenetly update the plugin to use those new features.</li>
<li><strong>Soundcloud is Gold</strong> use a shortcode but the “Soundcloud is Gold” tab will write it for you dynamically as you select parameters, and on top of this it will provide a nice live preview of your player so you know what does what. When done just press the ‘insert soundcloud player’ and it will added to your post just like when you’re adding a photo or gallery.</li>

<h3>RoadMap</h3>
<h4>Priority</h4>
<ul>
<li>Contextual On-boarding to help new users getting to know the plugin</li>
<li>Use your own API key (which mean you’re not dependent of the rate_limit attached to my key )</li>
<li>Advance Settings (change background color and comments color, playcounts, buy link, font, wmode, etc, show/hide styled shortcode, number of tracks per page)</li>
<li>Other soundcloud shortcode conflict fix (jetpack)</li>
<li>Update to the way Settings are handled to be even more inline with WordPress settings API.</li>
<li>Live search while typing a name in the user name field. So if you’re looking for someone it’s kind of easier.</li>
<li>Better UX for the editor: clicking to edit should know if which user and if it’s a track/playlist/favourite</li>
<li>Better UX for the editor: Better visual to actually know what the track is just by looking at it.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Secondary</h4>
<ul>
<li>Seperate playlists into playlist types (ep, album, etc…)</li>
<li>Url attribute for shortcode: easier for people using the shortcode manually.</li>
<li>Trigger live preview when changing Soundcloud user name</li>
<li>Add ‘activities’ to the widget</li>
</ul>

<p>Very simple, unique and exciting plugin that allows the bloggers to link an image to an audio file through the Media Library. Automatically, a little play icon will be added on your images in your posts. That way, you can give another dimension to your images thanks to sounds, music or voice-over. Here is a very simple example.</p>
<p><strong>BETA</strong>. This plugin was just created. We are waiting for the first feedbacks of our users to decide which way to go. We have many ideas for it but we prefer to hear from you first. We will keep it clean, consistent and excellent.</p>
<p><strong>BE KIND</strong>. Again, this plugin is new. Please don’t attack us. We are starting it. Please help us 🙂</p>
<p><strong>IDEAS</strong>. Tell an audio story behind each image rather than text (the text should focus on SEO instead, be an excerpt of the story). Use cinemagraphs instead of normal images  and have the audio track synchronized with it. Write a post with photos taken around your home, with the associated background audio. Write a post with portraits, each of them will say a simple sentence with their own voice. Etc…</p>
<p>More information available on https://meowapps.com/audio-story-images/.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Link images to audio files through the Media Library</li>
<li>Audio Story meta box in the attachment edit sidebar</li>
<li>Autoplay when images come into view (with smart browser compatibility)</li>
<li>Visual play/pause controls on images</li>
<li>Support for MP3 and WAV audio formats</li>

<h4>How Audio Story Works</h4>
<p><strong>Linking Audio to Images:</strong><br />
1. Go to Media Library (list view) or edit any media file<br />
2. Use the “Audio Story” column or meta box to attach files<br />
3. Images can be linked to audio files, and vice versa<br />
4. Once linked, a play button appears on the image in your posts</p>
<p><strong>Autoplay Feature:</strong><br />
* Enable autoplay by checking “Autoplay when image comes into view” in the attachment edit screen<br />
* When visitors scroll and the image becomes visible, audio plays automatically<br />
* Due to browser security policies:<br />
  – If the visitor has already interacted with your site, audio plays immediately<br />
  – On first visit, a subtle notice appears: “Click anywhere to enable audio”<br />
  – After any click/tap, all autoplay audio will work normally<br />
  – The play button pulses to indicate audio is ready</p>
<h4>Quickstart</h4>
<ol>
<li>Upload audio files and image files to your Media Library</li>
<li>In the Media Library list view, use the Audio Story column to link files</li>
<li>Or edit any image/audio file and use the Audio Story meta box in the sidebar</li>
<li>Optionally enable autoplay for automatic playback when images come into view</li>
<li>Your images now have audio! Visitors can click the play button or experience autoplay</li>
</ol>
