Hello brother and sisters,
There's one problem you might have with this audio player, you might find that sometimes your mp3 will not show. On today's tutorial I will walk you through it. First I'll explain why it will not work. Some file sharing platforms do not allow direct links for security reasons and provide instead a link to another window which shows the player. Cloudfront is one of these sites... unfortunately. Do not despair because I have found a work around to show this file in your posts.
Lets begin:
I will be researching a bit more to find another work around but for now that's it. if you have any questions post them below and I will get back to you.
Thank you and have a blessed day!
Update: The cloudfront link will work if you add ?raw=1 at the end. You don't have to get Dropbox after all!

Lets begin:
- On cloudfront find the link you wish to share and clink on the link.
- Next it'll take to the window with the player on it. On the right of the player you will see Three dots, click on it. Now you see a drop down, in it you'll find download link click it.
- Once it downloads to your computer google dropbox, it does have a free plan but you can choose the plan that suite your need.
- After that go to settings and download the desktop app. Move the mp3 file in your dropbox public folder. There dropbox will create a link for it, now close it out.
- Alright got to the forum and create a thread click on audio button. click the dropbox icon on your system tray and copy the link by clicking on the little chain. now you can paste into the audio input box.
- last and important the work around. At the end of the link you will see dl=0 delete it and replace it with raw=1 click submit and your done.
I will be researching a bit more to find another work around but for now that's it. if you have any questions post them below and I will get back to you.
Thank you and have a blessed day!
