    Hello,

    We are looking for an audio player that would be able to do the following and wonder if your wordpress plugin will work for us?

    When a user presses the play button it randomly plays from a defined selection of tracks. For example, "Play a random song from the album" that just shows a play button and nothing else.

    Thank you

    Hi Peter,
    Our player can do that. 
    But if we re-click on the play button when a track is playing, no other random track will start. Once a first random track is loaded, the play button toggle between pause and play.

    Thanks,

    Once a track completes what happens?

    You can set the player to stop when track ends, or you can set it to start another random track. This is up to you.

    Thanks,

    Hi Peter,

    No, but we can full refund within the 14 days of your initial purchase if this is not what you want.

    Hello, we purchased but I am unsure how to set this functionality up... We would like a button when pressed to play a randomly selected mp3.

    For example, something simple like in the example;


    [sonaar_ts albums="23088" button="true" play_icon="true" text="Play Episode" color="#fff" background_color="#000" font-size="32px" block="true"]

    Hi, 

    I think the [sonaar_audioplayer] shortcode is more what you are looking for. 
    Set the "player_layout" parameter to "skin_button".
    And the "shuffle" parameter to "true"

    Please try this shorcode:
    [sonaar_audioplayer albums="23088" player_layout="skin_button" shuffle="true" sticky_player="true"]

    Thanks,

    HI, Is there a difference between these two shortcodes in how "shuffle" works? I prefer the second button in terms of looks, but it does not appear to work with the shuffle option.


    Shuffle=true works

    [sonaar_audioplayer albums="23088" player_layout="skin_button" shuffle="true" sticky_player="true"]


    Shuffle=true does NOT work

    [sonaar_ts albums="23088" button="true" play_icon="true" shuffle="true" text="Play" color="#fff" background_color="#000" font-size="32px"]

    Hi Peter, 

    [sonaar_audioplayer] is the player shorcode. 

    [sonaar_ts] is not a player shortcode. It is only a button who interacts with a audioplayer  in the current page. TS is for time stamp. You can set the sonaar_ts to go on a track on a specific time.
    [sonaar_ts] have its own parameter. See here https://sonaar.io/docs/add-audio-player-with-shortcode/

    The shuffle parameter is only used by the [sonaar_audioplayer] shortcode.

    Thanks,
