   Audioboo is a website that hosts audio files. I used to be able to use [ audio ] with the link to the audioboo page inside in my posts. A little grey audio player would appear on the page. Here is an example:
   http://bilinguish.wordpress.com/2012/03/22/mi-trabajo/
   In the past, there was an audio player on that page. Now it says "download" with a link to the audioboo webpage. Another example is this page:
   http://bilinguish.wordpress.com/2012/01/29/escucha-el-restaurante-el-burro-norteno/
   This page used to have an audio player on it and now there is nothing.

   I just tried posting audio in my most recent post with the same results.
   http://bilinguish.wordpress.com/2012/10/05/cual-es-tu-numero-de-telefono/

   Did the rules for posting audio players change? How can I post an audio player in a blog post? Thanks.

   The blog I need help with is bilinguish.wordpress.com.

   The WP audio player shortcode works with URLs of mp3 files. You've probably been using URLs like this:
   http://audioboo.fm/boos/991815-numero-de-telefono
   That's not an mp3 URL, it's the URL of a webpage. The right URL in Audioboo's case is this:
   http://audioboo.fm/boos/991815-numero-de-telefono.mp3
