The Yahoo! WebPlayer plugin embeds a media player on your page in a collapsible drawer. This player allows your users to play embedded links on your page to music files, YouTube videos, and Yahoo! movie pages.

You can customize many options to uniquely tailor how the player behaves and deals with content.

Also, you can provide an Amazon Affiliate Code to monetize purchases made via the plugin.

You can find more information on the player at: http://webplayer.yahoo.com/

\n","installation":"

unzip the file
drag the created folder it into: wp-content/plugins
activate the plugin from the ‘Plugins’ tab by selecting the ‘Yahoo! WebPlayer’
choose where the code should be placed (header or footer). placement in the footer may improve page load times, but may not work with certain themes.
change the version of the player through the ‘Yahoo! WebPlayer’ section under ‘Options’ (optional)
configure the settings for how you want the player to behave
enter in your Amazon affiliate ID
add audio links to your page. for example, something like:\n
- <a href=\"http://mediaplayer.yahoo.com/example3.mp3\">Yodel (mp3 link)</a>
- <a href=\"http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1810096458/info\">Tron (Yahoo! Movie link)</a>
- <a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i56XeM0-b8Y\">Zoetrope (YouTube link)</a>
\n
the player will detect these links, render a play button next to the media, and include the media in the playlist
enjoy 🙂

Who made this plugin?

This plugin helps integrate code Yahoo! developed, but was independently developed by me (Max Engel) in my free time.

How can I get support?

If it is a player functionality question, please check the official Yahoo! WebPlayer forum here: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/yhoomediaplayer/
\nFor help with the plugin itself, please post in the forum or contact me.

How can I help?

If you’d like to make a donation, it is the best way to help support the continued development of the plugin.
