Thanks! Maybe there is a plugin that does this. I’ll see if there is. ??

How can I find the playlist ids for 70 songs I want to add to a playlist? Is there a way to view the playlist ids for multiple audio files?

Thanks Steve. I know how to do that. what I don’t know is how to create a playlist from the example link code in my original post.

Example:

https://sd.mcran.com/assets/shows/2018/ITMAR0418.mp3
https://sd.mcran.com/assets/shows/2018/ITJAN0718.mp3
https://sd.mcran.com/assets/shows/2018/ITJUL0118.mp3

So let’s say I want to create a playlist from the above code using the add media option and choosing from URL on the left side of the media library window.

Great. I think that is what I am looking for especially the archives section and the search option. Thanks! ??

Thanks Steve! I’ll try that out. All I want to do is better organize my yearly radio shows so visitors and musicians can quickly go to a specific show(s).

Thanks!! Great idea!

I just installed Wordfence and am now running the scan option.

Thanks!

Will Wordfence with the paid version scan and repair my site?

I have been doing my show since 1988. I have html tables going back to 2006 that include the show and playlist.I’m not sure how I would organize all of this. I thought of using an accordion for each year as well as a floating menu option. Maybe I’m over complicating things but if you were a visitor to my site and wanted to listen to a show from 2010, how would you like to navigate to that show?

iframes while looking like a great idea for organizing, posed problems for me when viewing on a mobile device. I want to be as simple as possible while making it straight forward for a vistor/musician to listen to one of my shows.

I thought of creating a page for each year and then posting the html-table for that year. That would be really simple but then how would people navigate to the other years? A sub-menu in the main menu?

Thanks so much for your feedback as I figure out how to organize all of this!!

I’m in the middle of transitioning from Yola.com to something else. WordPress being one of the options.

Thanks fir your comments!!

My current site was made using yola.com which I really like. Great support! I want to switch to a free service like WP but so far I am having problems.

I totally screwed up the twenty fifteen theme by deleting the sidebar.php contents so I am going to try another theme.

My main issue is getting my pages that contain all of these links to look presentable. Maybe I need to find a theme that is full width with no sidebar?

Thanks Digico!!

I’m pretty comfortable with CSS and HTML. I used both when developing my pages for my current website that I made with yola.com. the link is in my initial post.if there is an update to a WP theme will the CSS file be overwritten?

I’ll check on YouTube for any videos regarding theme modification.

Happy New Year!! I haven’t had a chance to work on my site so I’m hoping that 2016 will be a better year for me when it comes to WordPress.

Since I already have a lot of the code for my pages already done, my main stumbling block is when I go to preview a page it doesn’t look the way I want it to. Stuff like it’s not centered the way I want it or there is not enough padding on the left hand side.

Is all of this template related? Do I have to make a duplicate of a template and change the code? I have 5 themes that I am trying out.

If someone can just give me basic steps on how to build my site something like step one you do this, step two you do this etc…, that would help me out a lot. I’m a quick learner.

Hi Adeline!

Thanks for the YouTube recommendations. I do know some html and CSS but would love to use WordPress without having to modify WordPress files that reside on my hosting server. At least not in the beginning.??.

Is there a specific free security plugin you would recommend?

I think what I am going to do like I mentioned above is start over, crate my pages, choose my theme and see how far I get. I will then post back with what I have done so far including plugins used etc… and then take it from there. With help from this thread along with what I have learned I should be able to come up with something that is easy to maintain etc. . with minimal coding.

The only coding would be the code I already have regarding my shows that were created using HTML tables.

Thanks again!!!

Right now I am using the boots theme. I’d like to look for something else that is free, clean looking and simple with no sidebar. and page template options. The template I am using on Yola.com is clean, and minimalist. This is what I am after. I’ll continue looking around on the link Adeline provided.

I don’t have many pages on my site and for me the main focus is displaying the content I do have, in a presentable manner that is easy for the end user to access and navigate. My current site has this and I like getting feedback from listeners to my show and musicians who have visited my site and comment on the look and feel as well as the ease of moving around my pages.

Thanks Adeline!

I have been looking at different themes and plugins but I’m still not clear on some things like choosing templates etc.. I am going to delete my WordPress site that I have been working on and start over again. I’ll see if there are some videos that can help me even more.

What I am understanding if that a theme is not quite to your liking you can always tweak it to your liking and even go into the code of that theme to alter it. I’m still kind of fuzzy on what a theme and a template are. Hope the videos on youtube will help me out.
