How to locate the music URL?

To play a song that you've uploaded to your site using one of the above widgets, edit the settings so that the URL looks like: http://yourdomain.com/resources/song.mp3

• Replace "mysite" with the name of your published site.
• Replace "song.mp3" with the name of the music file you've uploaded.
• Remember to include any folder names in the file path if your file is stored in a folder in the File Manager. For example, if you have music folder: "resources/music/song.mp3".

You can also add external MP3 players to your site if they provide you with an HTML code to embed into your site. Here are some MP3 player suggestions:

• Dewplayer
• MP3 Player
• PodSnack

Once you have your code, you can paste this into an HTML Code Widget. Please follow these steps:

1. Go to Widgets > Popular.
2. Drag and drop the HTML Code Widget onto your page.
3. In the HTML Editor that opens up, paste in your code.
4. Click "Save".

Please ensure that you own the copyright to the music you will be playing.
