How do I embed or link the player to my website?
Embedding is the process of adding the ESPlayer to your website (through your hosting platform and tools), making it readily available to your website visitors. For many website-building platforms, it is as simple as copying and pasting the codes that we provide. The iframe embed code is the most universally compatible embed code that can be used on any kind of web-page or web-application that supports HTML.
<a href="http://live.mystreamplayer.com/mystation">Listen Live</a>
<a href="http://live.mystreamplayer.com/mystation"><img src="http://live.mystreamplayer.com/listenlive.png"></a>
<a href="http://live.mystreamplayer.com/mystation"><img src="http://live.mystreamplayer.com/listenlive-blue.png"></a>
<a href="http://live.mystreamplayer.com/mystation"><img src="http://live.mystreamplayer.com/listenlive-green.png"></a>
Paste (ctrl+v, command+v) the HTML code into your website. This process may differ depending on the platform that your website is hosted on.
Initial Player Deployment
For the player deployment, you will have to own a station with us and we will need the following information sent to [email protected]:
- Station Name (as you would like it to appear on the player)
- Website URL
- Social Media Links
- Station Logo (Transparent or vector) that is approximately 50 pixels tall
- Station background (it's optional; not adding a background results in displaying the album art of the playing song as the background. This is our preferred option)
If you have any further questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact our Support Team through the ticket submission form or by emailing us at [email protected].
