Overview
The plugin was originally created for Dave Draper’s website where it is used on the music pages. For an example, please see the page for the Wild Bunch album featuring Dave on vocals and bass.
Audio Album uses the default audio capabilities of mediaelement.js included with core WordPress files and enables you to style a group of audio files (MP3 etc) as single block formatted as an album. The colours can be customized in the Audio Album section of the WordPress customizer.
You can display as many Audio Albums as you need on your site, with multiple albums on each page.
Usage:
There are two shortcodes that can be used [audioalbum] and [audiotrack]
[audioalbum]
This shortcode is required and can be used as a header before the [audiotrack] shortcodes.

Searchable Audio Playlists!!!
by glenstewart·4 years ago
Thanks to the author for publishing this and keeping it open source!
One point that wasn’t brought up about it, is that with many/most other Audio Playlist plugins, there is actually no useable text in the Post, which allows a user to search for a song by Author, Album, Song, etc. The way this plugin’s shortcodes are designed, enables searchability of the playlist by all these terms.
Another advantage (huge) is that this plugin doesn’t require loading ANY media into WordPress. All the audio files can be left in some served web directory. Again, very cool.
PERFECT!
