   Hey there, Im not a very computer savvy person for this kind of thing but here is the problem:

   I purchased the space upgrade today. I uploaded a song from my computer into the media library and it uploaded completely fine. I then went to 'attach' and tried to attach it to one of my posts. It said 'attached' at the top of the screen but then when i looked at the file it still said unattached. I tried a few times, and i even changed the title of the song to the URL link from the edit box.

   Basically i cant seem to figure out how to properly attach the music to the posts i wanted.

   Also i was wandering if there is a way to put the music on the home page and not on separate posts themselves?

   My blog is: http://araey.wordpress.com

   Any help would be really appreciated!

   p.s. when i went to the support page it showed a window where you are supposed to click 'none' on the links and instead click add to post. However no matter what i have tried i dont get that window after uploading a song.

   Again help would be fantastic.

   Many thanks,

   Andrew.

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

   ok update i figured out how to attach a song to a post. However it comes up as a link which puts u to a brand new window with a flash player. Is there anyway to have a small flashplayer box above the post or something?

   Thanks again.

   okay i kind of fixed that issue to. As long as i update each new post with the same song the player should stay at the top.

   Thanks anyways, i really should learn to completely run out of patience before bothering anyone with a post that becomes irrelevant 2 seconds later lol.

   peace.

   No I'm sorry that's not possible. We are blogging on a multiuser blogging platform where preserving security is the priority, therefore, we have restrictions, and the software will strip out the code that's listed here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/
