Widgets: Audio

Widget Categories: Media

Share songs, podcasts, concerts, audio tutorials and other audio files on your site with the audio widget, which enables you to embed any SoundCloud or Mixcloud audio file or playlist directly to your site. Upload your audio file to one of these services, or use an existing public file, copy the link, and add it to your site via the audio widget.

Some of the available design options are dependent on the audios source:

  • Mixcloud: Layout, thumbnail display, light/dark color scheme, and sizing options (width only) are available (options vary depending on layout).

  • Soundcloud: Layout, play icon color, and sizing options (width only) are available.

  • Uploaded to the site (site files): With uploaded audio, the design is not editable, only the width can be adjusted.

Layout options are different for SoundCloud and Mixcloud files. If you want to keep the designs consistent between all instances of audio widgets on your site, make sure to load all audio files on the same platform.
