Reply to How To - Embed Soundcloud and Mixcloud

Hey guys,

Just incase you didnt already realise you can now embed your soundcloud mixes in the community s.

In the post maker you will see a icon in the toolbar that looks like this - Screen Shot 2013-06-16 at 4.35.25 PM.png

1) So the first step is to copy paste your soundcloud link into the post creator like this :

http://soundcloud.com/bentosan/bento...a-chest-cavity

2) Now highlight your link and press the soundcloud button in the toolbar, this will wrap the link in soundcloud brakets and will look like this except without any spaces:
[ soundcloud ] http://soundcloud.com/bentosan/bento...a-chest-cavity [ /soundcloud ]

3) Now submit your thread, the embed player should end up looking like this:

http://soundcloud.com/bentosan/bentosan-feb-2009-neuro-dnb-mix-i-had-a-chest-cavity


If you cant see the soundcloud embed player then you may need to install\upgrade your adobe flash player. You can do that here - http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/


How To Embed on Mixcloud




Works very much like the soundcloud embed - copy the html address when your on the of the mix that you want to link to (NOT THE PLAYER).

Like this:
http://www.mixcloud.com/bentosan/200...-chest-cavity/

NOT LIKE THIS:
http://www.mixcloud.com/bentosan/200...cavity/player/


Make sure your in advanced mode when your posting, paste the link into the new post editor, highlight the link and press the mixcloud button. Screen Shot 2013-06-16 at 4.36.36 PM.png

! OR !

You can do write it out manually like this this [ mixcloud ] http://www.mixcloud.com/bentosan/200...-chest-cavity/ [ mixcloud ]

Do that WITHOUT ANY SPACES and it will appear as the mix.

Personally i recommend mixcloud over soundcloud, however we will continue to support both. Mixcloud offers a free service while soundcloud has some major annoying restrictions you have to fork over a monthly subscription for to unlock.
