Hello Radu, I’ve been submitted another item that need to be given a look at. I’m not completely sure if this has to do with the music portal sub-system, or the BBpress system. Here it is, as stated directly from one of the techs here.
“Another function that doesn’t seem to make sense or isn’t functioning correctly is when one is on a Song page there is no link (that I’ve found) to the Artist’s page. There is a clickable link in the About the Author section on the song page and that takes you to a page called Archives with a search field. Seems like that should take one directly to the Artist’s page.”
I’m hoping that it will make better sense to you than it does to myself and that together we can figure it out.
One of my code guys may have spotted some information that will help you with the artist name issue, Radu. He sent me the following:
I believe the use of the variable $current_user->data->ID should be $current_user->ID starting at line 1663 and anywhere thereafter of class-dzsapp.php in the Portal code as per “https://codex.wordpress.org/wp_get_current_user”
Not sure if it is helpful, but information can’t hurt.
Hello
Does not seem related with Music Platform
Can you send me a screenshot of where this link might be ?
Cheers!
Radu
You’ll have to be a little more specific, as your comments comes after two comments speaking to two separate issues. If you are speaking to the first comment, which refers to the “link to the Artist’s page”, I will agree that I doubt it has to do with the Music Platform.
The second comment, however, I’m not quite so sure, as the file being referred to is the “class-dzsapp.php”, which does have to do with the Music Platform.
Thank you Radu.
Hello
yes, it’s about $current_user->data->ID which should work the same as $current_user->ID
I was asking if you have a screenshot so I can see exactly the spot
Cheers!
Radu
I don’t have a ‘before and after’ screen shot, but I can provide you with a current screen shot of what the Song page looks like where ‘there is no link to the Artist’s page’. Sent to address on file.
Still would need to see a screenshot or a link
We have many modes like that …
cheers!
Radu
Regarding the artist name issue, on the posting of a song, I’ve noticed that if the artist name appears incorrectly (attributed to another artist) that placing the correct name in the “Artist Name” area, above the “Wrapper Image”, and saving it, will correct that displayed name. Hopefully, that will help you in tracking the issue.
Hello
Yes, artist name might come from author name ( the one who posted it )
Cheers!
Radu
Here are some additional questions. Is it possible for users to edit their own comments? Can a user who submits songs delete their own songs? May listeners edit their own comments on others songs?
Hello
Song comments are just wordpress comments. So they should be able from the track page
Yes, they can from the wp dashboard
They can add comments on an track
Cheers!
Radu
I appreciate the answers. We’d like to keep the users away from the WP dashboard, if possible, regarding the deletion of their own songs.
Hello
You can update via zoomsounds > Autoupdater
Introduced the feature for you
Cheers!
Radu
Just applied this update. The capability, allowing the user to delete their own music, appears to be working.
One item I noticed, I no longer see the ‘Audio xxx” menu selection on the main Wordpress admin menu. It has unexplainably vanished. Any thoughts? I’m hoping it isn’t related to the update.
The “Audio Items” I believe it what the menu text was.
Thank you for including the new functionality.
With the ‘Audio Item’ menu item no longer available, I am unable to view any audio listing, making is much more difficult to repair any audio files with the artist name condition, or recover audio files with “apostrophes” used in the filename.
Hello
Audio items should be there
Send me wp-admin via pm if it’s not there but I have never seen this error
Cheers!
Radu
The menu item has appeared again, quite mysteriously. Must have been some type of conflict that has either resolved itself, or has been resolved inadvertently.
That is weird but glad it’s solved
Cheers!
Radu
Radu, I hate to bother you. It must feel like I’m a constant bug, or something. However, the Audio Items dashboard menu selection is no longer available. It has disappeared again. This came to my attention, after a new audio category was requested. Without it, I have no method of creating the category. If required, once provided with an email address to send credentials, I can provide you with admin access to the site, so that you can examine the situation.

Hey Rich
Send wp-admin login via https://zoomthe.me/sendadmin/login-details.php?sendftp=off

Radu
Done. Thank you for taking a look at this.
Notified of a new item today. It would appear that “Likes” aren’t working correctly. With no likes having been made, what appears to be a phantom item is showing, This item produces an error and can’t be played. While testing, I tried to “like” a song. This song was not added to the likes page, rather only the phantom items showed, along with it’s associated error. The error is: “MEDIA_ELEMENT_ERROR: Empty src attribute”.
Thank you for investigating this.
I’ve just been notified by a user that liking songs doesn’t appear to be remembered after leaving the page. This may be another item for the list. Thank you. Rich
Hey Rich
Fixed in 1.02
Thanks!
Radu
Thank You, Radu! I look forward to working with it!!
Radu, I hate to bother you. Is there are status update for 1.02?
Hello
You can download it from codecanyon
Cheers
Radu
Radu – How may I download the newest version. The download links I have from the Codecanyon look to still be older versions, with nothing after June in the file structure date stamps.
Last Update 13 July 19
You should be good to download this
And replace the plugin
Also the Envato Market plugin might help you update
Cheers!
Radu
Just checking in with you on the above issues. I know you are busy working at them. Just have clients asking.
One last item of note. When someone likes more than one song, the songs in their like area, within BuddyPress will break, showing only one item which is not playable.
Hello
Thank you for noticing
Fixed in 1.02
Cheers!
Radu
A request, from one of my moderators is to, please, make the “Drag n Drop” are more easily noticeable (i.e., darken, or modify the color somewhat).
Hello
You can update to latest version – it will stand out
Cheers!
Radu
I know the issues I’ve raised a very perplexing and time consuming issues to solve. However, I’m wondering if a status update is possible? Thank you.
Hello
Yes – working on them
Thanks for the patience
Cheers!
Radu
Anything you need from me to assist in any way?
Where exactly does one fine this “Autogenerate Waveform” button?
“As this is generated based on each track, you have to regenerate these files, by going to each track and clicking the Autogenerate Waveform Button again.”
Well, it would appear that I do not see any of the audio files that have been uploaded by users in the Media Library, to be able to select the “AutoGenerate Waveform” button. They are on the system and can be played, but not showing in the Media Library. I wonder how that can be?
Hello
That is not needed anymore
We updated the files
To change waveform color and size, go to ZoomSounds > Player Configurations and change these seetings - Highlight Color
Cheers!
Radu
Hopefully the issue with artist names being displayed incorrectly can be solved. This is the only issue, with this system, that is keeping our site from going live.
I really hate to bother you, but… Found an issue where when users like more than 1 song, the likes do not show properly in the “Likes” are of their BuddyPress profile. Rather, it shows a broken song “media Element Error – empty source attribute. Add another item to the list.- Thanks. Rich
Hey Rich
We will fix it tomorrow
Cheers!
Radu
There are times when, after uploading a song, the authors name is changed to that of another user. This can be manually corrected. However, as I’m sure you are aware, this can be very frustrating and time consuming.
I hope that this issue can be fixed. It is the only major issue that is stopping a site from going public.
Hello
Can you show me a link ?
So I can see your setup
Cheers!
Radu
Well, I’ve gone in and manually corrected the items where this has take place already. I will upload some items in hopes of replicating it and provide a link here.
Have an issue where the number of likes, showing on the charts, is not the same being showed on the song item itself. Any thoughts?
An additional item of concern is that the thumbnails are all turned to the gray man, instead of the thumbnail graphic that was with the song.
Hello
Which shortcode do you use to display the charts ? Is it the one from shop builder or which is it exactly ?
Can you show me a link with the thumbnails ?
Cheers!
Radu
Hello The shortcode used is: [zoomsounds_showcase feed_from=”audio_items” ids=”” style=”widget_player” orderby=”likes” order=”DESC” count=”5” style_widget_player_show_likes=”on”]
As of today, I’ve posted a couple of additional songs. These, two songs, show the proper thumbnails. The original 3 songs are still showing incorrectly. https://indiemusic.space/When I uploaded the last two songs, I had to go into the entries and add the artist name to each, as they originally, after posting them, showed the ‘admin’ as the author, even though they were posted under a different account. Very odd. Thoughts?
One new issue – when new songs are posted, they are showing in the charts with the authors name as ‘admin’ instead of the proper author name. Have to go into “Audio Items” and edit the song entry, manually entering the name in “Artist Name” at the bottom of all the options. That may be a bug. Please check.

Hello,
1.Please how can I create a new chart showing recently uploaded songs sorted by recent upload time and not likes.
2. User are submitting their songs without the audio file being completely uploaded can you add a loading spinner icon or percentage progress bar when users are uploading an image, audio file and cover album.
3. During the upload process at the (GRAPHICS/COVER IMAGE SECTION) when I click on the upload button to insert a cover image I get a error message saying only (only songs are allowed) this should be an image instead of audio file.
4. Under the (MISCELLANEOUS SECTION) can you add an input form for soundcloud link apart from the itunes link.
5. I want to remove the share menu tab that enables embeds
Thanks

Hello
I just purchased your plugin and there is no documentation on how to setup except for this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNw-2wHVoT0 I dont use a page builder isn’t there a shortcode I can place inside the gutenberg page editor also, which shorccode do I place on the page that will list all users upload song. In the portal settings page there should be an option to select the upload page and music list page.
Your plugin setup is overwhelming and confusing. How do I create the song list page and upload page.
Hello,
Please can you add this features and support for this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-followers/
1. Create activity updates when a audio file has been uploaded saying (Username) uploaded a new song, (Title of the song) 2 days, 21 hours ago. This will be followed by the Album art
2. Ability to force image, description and category selection during the upload process.
3. Ability to remove or display playlist tab and likes tab on buddypress profile menu.
4. Ability to add page navigation of load more button on the charts page after input maximum number of audio items at 20.
5. Ability to disable social shares on single audio page.
6. Ability to re edit posts and delete posts.
7. Support for buddypress notifications when new songs are uploaded
Hello
[audioportal_playlist]
show a specific playlist on a page
'disable_meta' => 'auto', // -- disable meta information in the player 'author' => 'own', // -- the id of the author if you want a specific author 'from_parent_all_playlists' => 'off', // -- when set to on it will show a link to all author
[ zoomsounds_upload ]
show the front end uploader
[ dzsap_charts ]
show the charts ordered by number of likes
'disable_meta' => 'auto', // -- disable meta information in the player
Mostly it integrates with buddypress so it will show up
We will add support for that plugin
1-7 all good points and will be added for future updates
Cheers!
Radu
