i was wondering if it is possible on proboards to add a hidden music player but  only on specific pages
1 time inside a board
and also the same one  in two separate threads

and if thats possible, is it possible to let it play only once?

thank you very much 

hope this was posted in the right board, i don't know anymore

Unclear what you mean by "only on specific pages
1 time inside a board". Does that mean you want the user to hear music the first time they visit that board and never again or is it perhaps hear it every time they visit that board but looped only one time? The first meaning would require some sort of storage system to keep track of who has already heard the song while the latter merely requires a loop count set to 1 on the HTML markup. The question further down of "is it possible to let it play only once?" doesn't really clear that ambiguity up either.

The template variables should be able to detect when viewing a particular board or even a particular thread but if you want to save data on a per user basis then javascript would have to come into play to store data locally (which would be per device plus the user can delete) or on Proboards servers through the use of plugin keys (which can then be used across multiple devices).

My response to your Music Player Non-Flash thread went ignored so I might be wasting my time here again so won't go beyond anything theoretical until a response.

you actually quoted me this time so i got a notification that you replied to this thread, so nope, your post was not a waste of time 
thanks again for trying to help

''hear it every time they visit that board but looped only one time'' that is exactly what i am after 
and for the player only to appear in two separate threads we are going to create for halloween
+ in the halloween board areas; where you see the threads listed

and my question about; can it play once only , was me trying to find out if it is possible for the player not to auto play again once a page has been refreshed or revisited... but i am guessing that's not possible?

Very possible, autoplay can be made contingent on the presence of a sessionStorage value (resets each time browser closes) or a localStorage value ("permanent" until cleared by user or via some automated browser setting) or even via a plugin key (permanent across all browsers/devices in use by that logged in user)

alright, well i am not sure what all those terms mean  but that sounds awesome, that it is possible.
Chris could you please help  me out by setting this up the way i tried to describe in my previous post? because i got no clue how/what to do
thank you
