how do i add music to my website wer ppl can download?
The best way to do this is to find a flash mp3 player and add a download button at the right and make it link to your mp3 file.
Or get a play plug in (Windows: Widnows Media Player, Mac: QuickTime or Linux: Totem) and copy it to your HTML box and add a html button that links to your mp3 file.

HI Lela - you can find information on adding music on this link: http://www.yola.com/customer-support/.... We have recently added an MP3 Widget that you can use.
hi..i've tried to add a background music to my blog and it works but my problem is that it plays in all other pages...what will i do to make it play in the homepage only?

Do you mean it is playing on all of the other post pages? I think once you add a widget to the blog's homepage, (not the website homepage, right?) it will be on all of the whole blog since it is a Blog page.
Hi Kristine
Have you added the music to a blog post or the blog page? If you have added it to the page, it may play throughout your site.
If you would like to add music to a blog post, you need to do the following:
- click on the "HTML" button on the Text Editing Toolbar
- Paste this code into the HTML editor:
<!-- <embed src="resources/music.mp3" width="140" height="40" autostart="false" loop="FALSE"></embed> -->
(Replace music.mp3 with name of your uploaded file. If you've put the file in a folder, remember to include the folder name, lik this... resources/folder/music.mp3.)
- Preview the post and then republish your site
I hope this helps!

Hi Kristine. I don't think it is possible to add extra words in it. But you can remove the file address below the widget. Just go on your page and copy the mp3 widget, but not the text below it (unless you have to) Now, paste it into a text widget and the widget will still be there and if you want to change the song just click on the text widget and on the text editing toolbar click the last one that reads "HTML" Now, you can find the URL of your song in that code and change it but be sure to keep "resources/" in it or it wont work.
can i ask for your fb ad? just in case I need some help next time..pls..pls???

I have replied to you on the initial thread that your conversation is taking place on asking you for URL of the specific site that you're having problems with.
Also just note that what Randy's doing seems a bit different from what you're wanting to do. If you go to Randy's site you'll see that all he has done is created links to the individual files. When one of those links is clicked on, depending on which one you use, your browser realizes that the link is an audio file and only then does a new browser page open where you can play that file.
That is virtually no burden at all on the website, the browser, or Randy's internet connection. However, these are things that need to be taken into account for your website, as you are wanting multiple MP3 playing widgets to load with your site (as far I have have been able to pick up from the thread).
While writing this I see you have responded on the other thread. I will feedback to you there once I have some sort of an answer for you.
Don't worry, we'll get to the bottom of it one way or another!
