Now Playing Widget

Now Playing
TOP FM – There is nothing currently playing (Customise this with your own text)
Recently Played

 

Now Playing
ANT FM – There is nothing currently playing (Customise this with your own text)
Recently Played

Now Playing (via Shortcodes)

You can style this section however you like – the data is provided via simple shortcodes. You can have your developer customise how this looks.

  • Anything with this class will be hidden when there’s no song currently playing.
    metaradio-hide-now-empty

  • Anything with this class will be hidden when there were no songs recently played.
    metaradio-hide-recent-empty

  • Anything with this class will be shown when there is no song currently playing.
    metaradio-show-now-empty

  • Anything with this class will be shown when there are no recently played songs.
    metaradio-show-recent-empty

  • Add this class to a hyperlink to make it open the player in a new window (data attribute not needed for this class)
    metaradio_openplayer_<stationid>

  • Add this class to a hyperlink to make it open the player in a new popup window (data attribute not needed for this class)
