Here’s how to enhance your WordPress blog to support this player:

1. Log in to the WordPress Site Administration panel
2. From the Dashboard, select Plugins > Add New
3. In the search box, enter ‘wpaudio’ and click the ‘Search Plugins’ button
4. The search should return ‘WP Audio Player’ select ‘Install’ for this list entry
5. When the plugin description page opens, click the red ‘Install Now’ button
6. Once the install completes, click ‘Activate Plugin’

That’s all there is to it! Your blog now provides embedded mp3 players.

It was pretty simple. ReverbNation provides many ways to obtain the code. Each widget even typically provides a ‘share’ button. Clicking this opens another instance of your browser, containing not only another instance of the widget, but also HTML code for the widget. At this point, you just need copy the code, by context menu, <ctl>-c, or even the button labeled ‘copy’ (clever, hunh?).

Once you have this code, you can paste it into any HTML field. For instance, the Edit Post screen in wordpress can accept this code. Just make sure that your editor has the ‘HTML’ tab active, rather than the ‘Visual’ tab active.

That’s all there is to it! Let’s do another! Heck – you do one!

1. Start a new blogpost,
2. click on the ‘share’ button above,
3. click on the copy button,
4. go back to the post you are editing,
5. click the ‘HTML’ tab,
6. paste to the post,
7. give the post a catchy title — I suggest “Listen to the BEST BAND IN THE WORLD”
8. Publish

Simple, eh?
