Music Player

From Jimdo Help

Our online music player partner simfy makes it possible to enjoy your favorite music on your Jimdo site.

Every Jimdo user can use the simfy music player for his or her own website. Create as many playlists as you want to - you can upload your own music and you have access to the vast music library of simfy. This music library contains over 1 million songs - so it should be no problem if some songs are missing in your own collection. In that case, simfy's music library will provide you with the songs - and you can enjoy all titles legally and in full length!

How It Works

Inserting the Simfy element

• Login to your Jimdo Page and decide on which page you would like to add the music player. Add a new element and choose "Music Player" (see image on the right side)
• The following element will appear (see image below). Since you haven't created any playlists yet the music player won't show any songs or playlists.

Simfy Element Settings

• "Playlist Title" - name your playlist!
• Think about the songs you would like to have in your playlist.
  • Click on "Upload Music" if you have the songs stored in your own files on your computer.
  • Would you rather search for songs in simfy's music library? Type in the title or the artist in "Find Songs" and simfy will find the songs for you.
• You can activate "Autoplay" if you want the music to start automatically when somebody visits your site. If not, uncheck the box to deactivate it.
• Later, when you have created other playlists, you can click on "Select another playlist" to choose some other songs - and you can also create new playlists here.

Managing Your Playlists

In Settings > Simfy Player you can manage your playlists.

• Click "Create new playlist" to set up a new list, name it and choose the music for it.
• Edit playlists: If you have already created playlists, they are shown in a list here. Click on the playlist you would like to edit and
  • delete songs from the list
  • change the order of the songs
  • add more songs
  • delete the whole playlist
  • rename the playlist
