Cue by AudioTheme.com

Descriere

Cue makes it easy to create and manage beautiful, fully responsive audio playlists. Primarily built with music in mind, Cue can also be used for podcasts, sermons or to showcase voice over samples.

There’s no need to fiddle with XML, JSON, or FTP. Just upload audio files with the familiar WordPress Media Manager, then insert them into a playlist with the click of a button. Cue fetches metadata from uploaded files to automatically complete the title, artist, and length for each track.

It works on desktop, tablets, and other mobile devices.

About AudioTheme

Cue is built by the team at AudioTheme. We’re a small, independent team of designers, developers and musicians focused on creating and supporting professional, world-class WordPress themes and plugins for bands and musicians.

Cue was originally integrated in our commercial platform, but we wanted everyone to have the ability to easily create beautiful playlists, so we released it free for general use. It powers the unique players in all of our premium music themes, as well as CueBar, a site-wide, continuous audio player made for WordPress.

We care about our work and stand by it. We’d love to have your support and the opportunity to earn your loyalty.

Support Policy

We’ll do our best to keep this plugin up to date, fix bugs and implement features when possible, but technical support can only be provided for active AudioTheme customers. If you enjoy this plugin and would like to support its development, you can:

Instalare

Install Cue like any other plugin. Check out the codex if you have any questions.

Folosire

After installing and activating Cue, a new menu item labelled Playlists will be available in your admin panel. Create a new playlist and add tracks by uploading or selecting existing audio files to add (remote sources can be used as well). Track details are populated automatically using tags in the audio file, but the details may also be managed manually.

Shortcode

To display a playlist in a post, page or CPT, insert the [cue] shortcode into the editor and specify the playlist id as an attribute.

When editing a playlist, the shortcode is available for copying in a meta box just under the Publish button.

Integration for inserting shortcodes in an editor is also included in the Media Manager modal. Click the Add Media button when editing a post or page, then choose the Insert from Cue option to select your playlist and insert it into the editor.

Widget

Visit Appearance → Widgets and add the Playlist widget to a sidebar. Enter a widget title if desired and select the playlist you want to display. That’s it!

Template Tag

For more fine-grained control over where the playlist appears, a template tag is available.

<?php cue_playlist( $id ); ?>

Întrebări frecvente

How do I disable the track list?

Add a show_playlist attribute to your [cue] shortcode and set the value to 0. Something like this should do it:

[cue id="1" show_playlist="0"]

Why do my playlists get truncated when they’re saved?

We’ve heard reports that this may happen around 70 tracks on some hosts, but it could occur with fewer tracks. First off, 70 tracks seems a bit excessive and may introduce other performance issues, so we recommend limiting the tracks to a more reasonable number.

The root cause of this is a PHP configuration setting called max_input_vars, which is typically set to 1000 by default. You will most likely need to contact your host to increase that limit if you need to save more tracks.

Why can’t I see the „Add Tracks” button in the admin panel?

Unfortunately, it’s fairly common for plugins to introduce issues that may prevent other plugins from functioning correctly. If you’re not seeing the Add Tracks button on the Edit Playlist screen, determine if there’s a conflict with another plugin first.

Cue also requires JavaScript to be enabled in your browser, so be sure it’s not disabled.

How can I protect my audio files?

Anything that’s publicly visible online can be downloaded or recorded, so it’s not really possible to protect your audio files.

Your best bet is to upload a lower quality file for online streaming. This also has the benefit of reducing bandwidth on mobile devices and making the audio load more quickly on slower networks.

Which audio format works best?

Browsers, devices, and platforms have varying levels of support for different audio formats, but at this time, MP3 provides the best compatibility across platforms.

Cue uses the MediaElement.js library bundled with WordPress, which attempts to smooth out inconsistencies across browsers, so you may have some success with other formats like AAC or Ogg.

Mozilla Developer Network maintains a browser compatibility chart here.

Can I make the player start automatically?

No.

It’s for your own good.

And the good of humanity.

Aside from that, mobile platforms like iOS and Android make it impossible to start playing audio automatically.

Does Cue work with SoundCloud?

Not at this time. SoundCloud URLs don’t point directly at audio files, so support would require integrating with their API and complying with their attribution and branding requirements. If there is enough demand, we might consider adding support in a future release.

I’ve been using Cue for 3 years now. It’s a solid plug-in backed by solid developers. Makes for easy playlist management without getting in the way. It’s worth getting the paid version to support their work in my opinion. It seems they follow coding standards a bit more closely than a lot of other plug-ins I’ve used or tested. Thank you, AudioTheme team. Please keep up the excellent quality work. (Side note: I liked Cue so much I ended up checking out their themes as well. Not only do they all have unique features, they’re also lightweight on both the front end AND back end. Under 1 MB page size and under 2 seconds load time, when measured with browser dev tools.)

This plugin is the best audio playlist manager that I have come across or used, definitely. It makes creating and displaying MP3 playlists easy, smooth and beautiful. However, it has not been updated in quite sometime, and although it works on WP 5.2, it causes a weird glitch. When trying to edit the HTML of a page that has Cue’s shortcodes on it, the WYSSIWIG displays an error and won’t let me edit anything. I have to disable the plugin, make the changes, then reactivate the plugin. Aside from that glitch, it’s a great plugin. But I fear after a year+ of no updates this plugin is being abandoned, and eventually I’ll have to move to something else.

It ruined up the security check for the navigators. Can’t work properly with the SSL.

All I want was to add a single audio file or a playlist and attached the cover art, I found the features in the plugin. I love it, I will be upgrading to the pro version soon.

I was putting together a collection of audio snippets for a media sales agency site. Cue offered exactly the functionality needed. Credible: does what it says on the tin. Flexible: plays either recorded audio or live streaming. Bonus points for looking quite nice too!
