Deseja adicionar arquivos de áudio ao seu site WordPress? Como um sistema de gerenciamento de conteúdo, o WordPress é capaz de lidar com arquivos de áudio por padrão. No entanto, muitos iniciantes não sabem disso. Neste artigo, mostraremos como adicionar arquivos de áudio e criar listas de reprodução no WordPress.
Formatos de arquivos de áudio compatíveis com o WordPress
O WordPress usa a tag de áudio HTML5 para incorporar arquivos de áudio. Ela é compatível com a maioria dos dispositivos modernos e funciona particularmente bem em dispositivos móveis. A tag de áudio HTML5 é compatível com os formatos de arquivo MP3, OGG e WAV.
MP3 é o formato mais comumente usado e amplamente suportado para arquivos de áudio, e recomendamos que você o use sempre que possível.

Como adicionar um único arquivo de áudio no WordPress
Adicionar um único arquivo de áudio ou faixa de música a qualquer postagem ou página do WordPress é muito fácil. Basta clicar no botão Adicionar mídia na tela de edição do post.
Em seguida, um pop-up do carregador de mídia aparecerá na tela. Você precisa clicar no botão carregar arquivo para selecionar e carregar o arquivo de áudio. Depois de carregado, você precisa clicar no botão inserir na postagem.
O WordPress inserirá o arquivo de áudio na postagem. Se estiver usando o editor visual de postagens, você poderá ver o arquivo incorporado à postagem. Se estiver usando o editor de texto, verá o shortcode de áudio.
Você pode continuar editando sua postagem ou salvá-la e publicá-la. Depois de publicada, você poderá visualizar sua postagem e verá o arquivo de áudio incorporado desta forma.
Outra maneira mais fácil de adicionar um único arquivo de áudio é carregar o arquivo na biblioteca de mídia. Depois disso, basta copiar o URL do arquivo e colá-lo no editor visual.
O WordPress incorporará automaticamente o URL para você. Isso é semelhante à maneira de incorporar vídeos no WordPress, em que basta colar o URL de um vídeo do YouTube e o WordPress o incorpora automaticamente.
Adição de lista de reprodução de áudio no WordPress
Assim como as galerias de imagens, você também pode adicionar listas de reprodução de áudio às suas postagens do WordPress usando o carregador de mídia. Basta clicar no botão adicionar mídia para carregar seus arquivos de áudio.
Depois de carregar os arquivos de áudio, você precisa selecionar os arquivos que deseja incluir na lista de reprodução e, em seguida, clicar no link criar nova lista de reprodução na coluna da esquerda.
Agora você pode arrastar e soltar para reorganizar as músicas na lista de reprodução. Você também pode ativar a exibição do nome da faixa, do nome do artista e da imagem. Essas informações são incorporadas às meta tags IDT do arquivo MP3 e são exibidas automaticamente pelo WordPress.
Quando terminar, basta clicar no botão inserir lista de reprodução de áudio. Sua lista de reprodução será adicionada à postagem e você poderá vê-la no editor visual. Agora você pode salvar a postagem e visualizar a lista de reprodução.
Edição de informações meta de arquivos de áudio no WordPress
O WordPress pode obter automaticamente as metainformações de seu arquivo MP3. No entanto, se o arquivo não tiver nenhuma metainformação ou se você quiser alterá-la, poderá fazê-lo no carregador de mídia.
Clique no botão Add Media (Adicionar mídia) para iniciar o carregador de mídia. Você pode carregar seu arquivo de áudio ou, se já tiver carregado o arquivo de áudio, clique nele na Biblioteca de mídia.
Quando o arquivo de áudio for selecionado, você verá a coluna de detalhes do anexo à direita. É aqui que você pode fornecer o título da faixa, o nome do artista, o nome do álbum, a legenda e uma breve descrição da faixa. Essas informações serão exibidas nas listas de reprodução e nas páginas de anexos individuais.
Se o arquivo de áudio que você carregou tiver uma imagem incorporada para ser usada como capa do álbum, essa imagem será extraída automaticamente pelo WordPress. Ela será armazenada na sua biblioteca de mídia e será usada quando essa faixa for adicionada a uma lista de reprodução.
No entanto, se o seu arquivo de áudio não tiver uma imagem de capa, você poderá editar o arquivo no WordPress e carregar uma imagem. Basta ir para Mídia ” Biblioteca, selecionar o arquivo que deseja editar e clicar no link de edição abaixo dele.
Se estiver visualizando a biblioteca de mídia na exibição de grade, clicar no arquivo de áudio abrirá uma janela pop-up. Você pode clicar no link Editar mais detalhes na parte inferior da janela pop-up para editar o arquivo.
Agora você chegará à página de edição de mídia, onde poderá não apenas editar todas as meta-informações do arquivo de áudio, mas também carregar uma imagem em destaque. Essa imagem será usada quando o arquivo de áudio for adicionado a uma lista de reprodução.
Adição de arquivos de áudio e listas de reprodução aos widgets da barra lateral
Por padrão, o WordPress não incorpora automaticamente URLs de arquivos de áudio. Primeiro precisamos ativar a incorporação automática para widgets de texto e, em seguida, precisamos ativar os códigos de acesso. Basta colar esse código no arquivo functions.php do seu tema ou em um plug-in específico do site.
add_filter( 'widget_text', array( $wp_embed, 'run_shortcode' ), 8 ); add_filter( 'widget_text', array( $wp_embed, 'autoembed'), 8 ); add_filter( 'widget_text', 'do_shortcode');
Agora você pode fazer upload de um arquivo para a biblioteca de mídia e copiar seu URL. Adicione um widget de texto à barra lateral do WordPress e cole o URL nele.
O WordPress incorporará automaticamente o URL ao reprodutor de mídia para reproduzir o arquivo de áudio.
Para adicionar uma lista de reprodução, você precisará usar o shortcode com os IDs dos arquivos de mídia que deseja incluir na lista de reprodução.
Primeiro, você precisará carregar os arquivos de áudio que deseja incluir na lista de reprodução visitando Media ” Add New.
Agora você precisa editar cada arquivo de áudio que deseja adicionar à lista de reprodução. Basta clicar no link de edição abaixo do arquivo na biblioteca de mídia ou clicar no link de edição de mais detalhes se estiver visualizando a biblioteca de mídia na exibição de grade.
Na página Editar mídia, você verá o ID do arquivo de mídia abaixo do campo de título.
Agora que você tem os IDs do arquivo que deseja adicionar à lista de reprodução, pode usar o shortcode da seguinte forma:
Não se esqueça de substituir os IDs por seus próprios IDs de arquivo. Você pode usar esse shortcode em um widget de texto. Esta é a aparência em nosso site de teste:

Do you recommend optimizing audio files to minimize file size, like is recommended for images?
Thanks for another informative article!
WPBeginner Support says
We would not normally recommend hosting audio or video on your site and instead embed it from another service but if you do plan to upload the files to your site you would want to optimize them for reduced file size.

As of WordPress 5.4, single songs work but I don’t think you can do playlists (unless I’m missing something). I’m guessing it can still be done with HTML though, but an external embed like Sound Cloud might be easier. Just posting this in case someone else is having trouble finding how to make a playlist, so you don’t waste your time.
WPBeginner Support says
Correct, at the moment there is not a playlist block with the block editor, we will be sure to take a look for what we can update with for other options.

Is it possible to have a playlist on my home page
I have created it on a new page and it works great just what i want for the home page but can’t seem to make that happen.
THANKS FOR ANY HELP
WPBeginner Support says
It would depend on your specific theme and if you’re using a static homepage, otherwise you would need to add the playlist to a widget

I am able to insert an audio file into a post using your above method. It is in a Wav format. However, the audio file will not play in preview. Do I have to actually publish the post for the audio to play?
Yesenia Latorre says
Hello, I figured out how to add the audio file to both, a post and Footer 1, I actually like it better at the bottom of the page, it was pretty easy to upload, it’s about 3 minutes of a song, however, like your photo above it shows 00:00 and I published it and when i press play, it wont? help? Also, this is my first site, so I haven’t launched it yet, does that have anything to do with it? Also can i make it play automatically whenever someone visits the site?
Natasha Lane says
Hello,
I keep following this method to add my audio but it only becomes available as a download and can’t actually be played on my site. Can you tell me why this is?

Great tutorial. Followed it to a “T,” however, files will not load. The files are compatible as they are MP3, and they worked back when I started up my website. Now there is a 2MB limit. Any ideas? All songs are longer than 2MB. It will work in a post, but not as this suggests in a media library. I have not tried a widget playlist as I thought it would do the same. Have tried from both URL and selecting files, but as stated the limit prevents me from adding anything. TIA.
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Lynne,
You can increase the maximum file upload limit in WordPress.
April Perez says
I need to add a playlist to my website. I am a DJ and need to have brides and friends access playlist and put songs and artists as well as be able to add MP3 files on the list if needed. I need it to be specifically accessible to each party separately. I am not sure which plug in is best. I use WordPress regularly for my website. Can you advise?

I want to create a playlist as a widget, but the permalinks for my audio files are showing as the artist/song names, not as attachment ids with numbers. Therefore when I want to create a playlist made up of song ids, I’m not sure how to do that. Is there a way to change this or get the id that I’m not seeing?
Randy says
I host a weekly radio show. For the time being I am using HTML tables to create my playlist. Is there an easier less time consuming way to do this? My radio shows are on my hosting site in mp3 format. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!
I use Google sheets to write out my playlist for a given show and then use the online tool tableizer to convert the text to table. Then I take that code and paste it to my WordPress page. I go through a lot of steps and would love to simplify this process.
Thanks!!!!

Hi Randy,

Hello, I’m trying to add an audio playlist (mp3 files) to my homepage in a widget and I’m not able to. I have the Maxwell template. Does this template allow for this function? When I download music files, the “Create Playlist” function doesn’t appear. I’ve also tried installing the Cue plugin, which allows me to put a playlist on a post or a page, but not in a widget on the static homepage. Thanks for any help!

Can shared hosting take the load of music playbacks from website?
WPBeginner Support says
A couple of music files not accessed by many users at once will be fine. However, if you are getting many visitors and have multiple music files, then you will need to upgrade your hosting to managed WordPress hosting.

Melissa says
I’m never listening to what WP Beginner says again. I was trying to add a code for different music player as the one I have doesn’t do playlists. It says WordPress can do it itself, so I added what it said where it said and the following happened.
Adding Audio Files and Playlists to Sidebar Widgets is the bit I added. Now I get this error when trying to do anything on my site
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘add_filter’ (T_STRING) in /home/user/public_html/example.com/wp-content/themes/mystore/functions.php on line 365
Just copy and paste that code into the functions.php you said. Great, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Melissa,
Please see our guide on how to fix syntax error in WordPress. You may also want to see our beginner’s guide on how to copy paste code in WordPress.
The error you are seeing indicates that in your WordPress functions there is an unclosed statement before add_filter at line 365. Probably just a missing semi colon. You can easily fix that by editing your functions file using an FTP client or file manager in your hosting control panel.

Is there a way to create a Playlist using external (remote) mp3 files?
Kevin Gilbert says
I know how to embed the audio player for one song, and then edit it to provide both an mp3 and an ogg file so that the right one plays based on the visitor’s browser. Does anyone know if that’s doable when you’re creating a playlist? I can’t seem to find whether that’s possible or not, and how to do it.

Angela Bowman says
Hi, I have definitely used this approach in the past. I am migrating a client from Host Gator to WP Engine and realized they have over 1GB of audio files they are hosting (and streaming of course) on their site. This is a huge bandwidth issue, as you can imagine. Not that the files are access frequently, but it occurred to me that self hosting audio may be just as bad as self hosting video.
In the past, I’ve hosted the files on Amazon S3 account instead and used an audio streaming plugin to fetch those files. I think that would be a better solution to avoid download/bandwidth issues on the web host.
However, I’m wondering if an even better solution is to host and stream the files via SoundCloud or similar service, then embed the SoundCloud file on the website?
I’m trying to assess what is going to allow best performance, reliability, and least bandwidth hit to the WP hosting account.
Thanks!

Take Note: anyone trying to do this, shouldn’t copy and paste the ‘play list’, code rather manually retype it to your own website because the quotation mark here seems to produce a False result. Thank You, it works.

Any guidance on what audio files you can post and which you shouldn’t for copyright reasons? Even some links would be useful.
It’s very easy to upload files, but it’s also very easy for artist / label / copyright holders to submit a DMCA Takedown notice to your ISP (internet service provider) or hosting service:
WPBeginner Support says
As a general rule of thumb, you should not upload audio files containing the works that you haven’t created yourself. You can create and upload your own audio files, or the audio files that are currently in public domain.

Any plug-in suggestions for situations with large size MP3 files that are too big to upload into the Media Library. Rather than music, these are educational lectures. Files sizes around 40 – 45MB
Kevin Gilbert says
Peter, Ask your host to increase your file size upload limit for WordPress. If they won’t or can’t, and it’s something you really need, you might want to change hosts. For one of my client’s sites on WPEngine, they’ve increased our upload size to 200MB. Once a year, we upload about 10 audio files from a conference, and we needed the additional file size settings because the files are usually of one-hour talks, so they’re larger than just your typical audio song file.
