Title: [Plugin: SoundCloud Shortcode] problem with v2.2.5 Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # [Plugin: SoundCloud Shortcode] problem with v2.2.5 * Resolved [martin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mratin/) * (@mratin) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/) * Hello, * until today I was using version 2.2.1 (I believe) on my ‘live’ websites and everything worked fine. Today I updated the plugin to v 2.2.5 and now only the link ([http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/…](http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/…);) is being displayed but not the player itself. I use one wordpress installation that is v 3.4.1 and one that is a little bit older. On both installations v 2.2.5 is behaving as described above. * On my localhost installation the v 2.2.5 is working with an older wordpress installation. * Besides, thanks for making the app, I truly appreciate it. * Martin * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/soundcloud-shortcode/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/soundcloud-shortcode/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 16 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/page/2/?output_format=md) * Plugin Contributor [por_](https://wordpress.org/support/users/por_/) * (@por_) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/#post-2935917) * Could you please post the code you are using and also list any custom plugin settings you might have set? * Thread Starter [martin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mratin/) * (@mratin) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/#post-2935920) * hi, * sorry, what code do you mean? If you mean the code that I insert into the post, it is the one tagged for wordpress : [soundcloud url=”[http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/…”](http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/…”); iframe=”true” /] * Plugin settings: widget type: flash (also tried it with html 5) player width: 100% auto play: default show comments: default everything else is blank * [The Daily Indie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/the-daily-indie/) * (@the-daily-indie) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/#post-2935922) * I’ve got exactly the same problem. I’m also using WordPress v3.4.1 and Soundcloud Shortcode v 2.2.5! * Plugin Contributor [por_](https://wordpress.org/support/users/por_/) * (@por_) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/#post-2935951) * Hmm, the code got cut off there. You can put it in between ` characters, so that doesn’t happen. But I assume you had something like this: * `[soundcloud url="http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/54330791" width="100%" height ="200" iframe="true" /]` * I tried it with the same settings and I can’t reproduce. Does updating the post work? It might have something to do with caching. I’d really like to see this fixed, but I have no clue what’s causing it right now. * [The Daily Indie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/the-daily-indie/) * (@the-daily-indie) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/#post-2935952) * Updating the post doesn’t work for me. Is there a temporary solution, like installing an older version of Soundcloud Shortcode? * Plugin Contributor [por_](https://wordpress.org/support/users/por_/) * (@por_) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/#post-2935953) * Currently that’s not possible, but I’ll try to make that happen today. * [The Daily Indie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/the-daily-indie/) * (@the-daily-indie) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/#post-2935954) * That would be great, thank you! * Plugin Contributor [por_](https://wordpress.org/support/users/por_/) * (@por_) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-soundcloud-shortcode-problem-with-v225/#post-2935957) * You can revert back to version 2.0 now if you want.

His problem sounds very similar to yours. I’ve traced the problem to a specific WordPress function, but since I can’t inspect the WordPress code, I can’t debug it any further. * The only thing I can recommend right now if you have any other plugins installed, to disable them one by one to see if one of them might be interfering with the SoundCloud plugin. * Alternatively you can try installing any of the older versions. Version 2.0 should be stable.
