Each page or post can have its own sound track. The sound track is embedded in the page by means of the HTML 5 audio tag. This w ay, the plugin is compatible with all modern user devices (smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktops of all vendors). A background music can be associated with all pages and posts or with individual pages or posts. A Play/Pause button can also be displayed anywhere in the pages and posts. Defaults can be set in the settings page of the plugin. Specific post and page plugin settings can be configured in the Edit Page and Ed it Post pages. In the plugin settings page, an audio track can be set per default. The audio track can be anywhere on the web as it is specified with its URL. It c an also be uploaded in the media library of the WP site. A play and pause button image can be uploaded to replace the default one and can be positioned anywhere. This Play/Pause button can be positioned in a corner of the document or in a cor ner of the window. It can also be positioned with a template tag typically in th e document header or with a shortcode in the content.
