    mixcloud trouble

    I have embedded several mixcloud players into my blog in the past and am now getting error messages on my blog where the player should be that reads "Widget path does not exists, cannot load the player" - Is something different with the code now that I need to change to make my mixcloud players show up properly within my blog? I am boggled here. They were all working just fine and now all the players show this message. Any help? Thanks!

    I've been there already. That is what I used to embed my players in the first place. They worked fine using that method via the link you provided and are all not working now.

    Please paste an example of the original embed code you get from Mixcloud and the shortcode you create out of it. Make sure you paste them between backticks (see note on "Allowed markup") or the codes won't display correctly.

    This is the code that mixcloud gives me on their page now.

    <div><object width="480" height="480"><param name="movie" value="//www.mixcloud.com/media/swf/player/mixcloudLoader.swf?feed=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mixcloud.com%2Frobertchampion%2Fthe-philler-episode-ten-fishman-contest-results-worcester-night-one%2F&embed_uuid=d5024b8a-dace-4af4-95ca-e0d1034b2d09&stylecolor=&embed_type=widget_standard"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="wmode" value="opaque"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.mixcloud.com/media/swf/player/mixcloudLoader.swf?feed=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mixcloud.com%2Frobertchampion%2Fthe-philler-episode-ten-fishman-contest-results-worcester-night-one%2F&embed_uuid=d5024b8a-dace-4af4-95ca-e0d1034b2d09&stylecolor=&embed_type=widget_standard" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="opaque" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="480"></embed></object><div style="clear:both; height:3px;"></div><p style="display:block; font-size:12px; font-family:Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; margin:0; padding: 3px 4px; color:#999;">The Philler - Episode Ten - Fishman Contest Results - Worcester Night One<span> by </span>The Sloping Companion<span> on </span> Mixcloud</p><div style="clear:both; height:3px;"></div></div>

    Correct shortcode:
    [gigya src="http://www.mixcloud.com/media/swf/player/mixcloudLoader.swf" flashvars="feed=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mixcloud.com%2Frobertchampion%2Fthe-philler-episode-ten-fishman-contest-results-worcester-night-one%2F&embed_uuid=d5024b8a-dace-4af4-95ca-e0d1034b2d09&stylecolor=&embed_type=widget_standard" wmode="opaque" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="480" ]

    Hey,

    The same thing is happening to me and I tried changing the shortcode.

    This is the shortcode, I am using:

    [gigya src="http://www.mixcloud.com/media/swf/player/mixcloudLoader.swf?feed=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mixcloud.com%2FDJLilKid%2Fboyfriend-vs-rack-city%2F&embed_uuid=d5024b8a-dace-4af4-95ca-e0d1034b2d09&stylecolor=&embed_type=widget_standard" wmode="opaque" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="480" ]

    I just don't know what is wrong?!

    I haven't updated the embed code from mixcloud though. I have just taken the same code that seemed to be working a few weeks ago but now doesn't?

    Please help me as you seem to have solved other's problems and maybe you could solve mine too.

    Sorry, I have the totally wrong link. I tried editing my shortcode before by coping your old solution but found out some numbers were messed up. I will just give you the embed code from Mixcloud. Please ignore the above message by me and that code.
