New CMS user query - how to stream 'Soundcloud' video links?

Post by LCMP »

Hi all, first timer here! I have a Leicester community conhesion & music collaborations based website www.lcmp.org.uk been recently set-up using CMS - we paid someone to do it only a few months ago but i am not totally sure what version of CMS - sorry i am new to this side of websites and i have going through the help funcions and administrator menus like crazy but this is not my fonte - understatement!) but looking to learn fast then pay-forward what i learn to others!

Anyway my QUESTION... LCMP and the people we teach really need to stream their own videos from other sites such as 'Soundcloud' onto our website but it only comes up with the links whatever instructions i try to follow to rectify this, i have naturally contacted the website developer on numerous occassions but alas they say they don't have any idea either!?!?

PLEASE HELP wise CMSMS forum members - thanks so much in advance from all the voluntary stakeholders of LCMP for taking time to read LCMP's first blog! ??? O0

Are you trying to let front end users/visitors upload them or admin/backend users?...

Most video hosting sites will give you an embed code to put the video on your own site, if this one doesn't do that there isn't much we can do about that, look at you tube to see the embed code there to see if Soundcloud has something similar...

Thanks for the reply Dr.CSS - we want users of our site to be able to simply play/stream music videos made by local Leicester, UK artists, i am unsure of what to look for in the embed code - after Soundcloud specifically?!? All very complicated, increased respect to the technical jedis out there! Any further advise would be very appreciated, LCMP has a website we currently dare not send live without Soundcloud video streams! :-\
