Wordpress + soundcloud

[Vandalx]

Good day !

 

Have a question about, how to embedd soundcloud player so it won't reload on page change.

 

Would like to create a block where this player is auto-start playing, when i click somewhere on links, content of page changes, but player is still playing without changes.

 

Any thoughts ?

I think, you can do it if your pages would be reloading with ajax (in wordpress).

I mean, not entire page may be reloaded, but with wordpress you'll get a full page reload every time.

Anyways, there are ajax news switches (change news block without reloading entire page).

 

Maybe you can create your own theme for wordpress, put your player into 'parent' block and all other content in 'child' block, which will load your pages with ajax to avoid entire page reload.

I don't know how advanced you are as a developer and what you have access to but I can only think of one solution off the top of my head and it's very hacky. 

 

iFrame for the content so you stay on the same page.

This solution is the opposite of what I think you want, you want the song to continue and the content to change. Maybe there is a wordpress plugin to ajax request further content.

There's no such plugin.

The other way is to open this player in another small window, but this requires user's permissoins to show pop-up windows in browser. This is the simpliest way, I guess What if ajax would be disabled in someone's web browser.

Only 0.8% of people don't use JavaScript. (At least here in the UK). My usual take is, functional without JS, even if it's basic content.

Guys, thank you, both.

 

Used this plugin : AJAX Page Loader and it worked like a charm !
