Installation:
The most basic installation simply requires that you upload the 'microaudio' folder to your /wp-content/plugins directory. Then, from the Administration -> Plugins menu, simply activate the plugin. Done.
Options can be configured in 'Settings > µAudio', although in most installations, no configuration is neccessary.
If you are updating from a previous version of µAudio, you no longer need to call prepare_player() from k2.rollingarchives.js. You should either remove the call to prepare_player, or upgrade to a newer k2, restoring the file to the default.
Notes:
- µAudio uses the super slim mp3 player from 1 Pixel Out. This nifty little player clocks in at just 5 KB, smaller than many JavaScripts. Indeed, the total change to your pages (when no player is loaded) is a mere 495 Bytes! Even with a player loaded the entire system is under 6 KB. If bandwidth is expensive (and let's be honest, when isn't it?) µAudio is about the smallest you can get and still run.
- Currently uses jQuery 1.2.6 (the most recent "release" as of this release date). Most older jQuerys should work, if they are loaded by another plugin, but only 1.2.1+ have been independantly verified
- The autoconfig feature may cause a slowdown in some older browsers, particularly IE 5
- If you absolutely must manuallly edit the colors, change the values in the rgb2hex function in microAudio.js.php
Known Issues:
- Only omits jQuery from the page if the theme is detected as (exactly) 'k2'. If you have renmed your k2 folder, or need to force jQuery to load or not load, simply edit the option in 'Settings > µAudio'.
- Please post any questions or bugs on the Version Installation Page. Feature requests and comments of a more general nature should go on the Home Page.
