The Audio Player module lets you create playlists with your own music files or add online radio streams, allowing your website users to enjoy music while they chat.
To add an Online Radio Station :
- Click on the Menu.
- Select Modules from the side navigation menu.

- Click on the Plus Icon at the bottom right of the content area.
- Enter the details in the screen that appears.
- Select “Radio Station” as the “Type” and input the Radio Stream URL.
- Click the “Create” button.
To identify whether a URL is a radio stream URL, try opening it in a browser; it typically won’t load a webpage but will start playing audio. If your website is running via HTTPS (SSL certificate), ensure the radio stream URL also supports HTTPS to prevent mixed content errors in the browser.
For a list of radio stream URLs, you can visit the Icecast directory at https://dir.xiph.org/. Click the play button next to a station, and you will be redirected to the radio stream URL in your browser.
