[Plugin: Chords and Lyrics] American vs. European chords

Sorry, haven’t been getting notifications so didn’t see this request.
Please help me understand this clearly. In Europe the scale is AHCDEFG?
This feels like someone is trying to play a practical joke on me ??

It is actually a German style but the most of Europe is using it.

Yes, the scale I learned within 8 years of violin and 3 years of viola was CDEFGAHC.

Actually H = B
and B = Bb in this system.

Interesting. I’ll see about adding support for it.
I’m assuming that this is a ‘global’ type setting, so I will add a checkbox to the Settings -> Reading options to enable displaying “h” instead of “b”.

Yeah, millions of people in continental Europe are using it…it would be great. But – H instead of B is not enough, there is B instead of Bb, too. Yeah, it is a “global style” thing.

Ok, I’ve added European chord support to the code and will upload v1.7 once I’ve done a little bit more testing in the morning.

This problem really comprises two aspects:
1. Being able to enter chord information in a post using European chords.
2. Displaying music using European chords.

To support the first, I’ve added a new parameter european=”yes” to the chordsandlyrics shortcode. This will cause B to be interpreted as Bb.

To support the display of European chords (regardless of how they’re entered in the post) I have added a checkbox to the Chords and Lyrics options on the Settings -> Readings page.

Thank you, that is great!
