Music

This resource uses the Spotify API to grab data from artists for your site.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please do not purchase this application if you do not agree with the terms. All sales are final and non-refundable.

• Spotify does not provide artist biographies, monthly listeners, photos, and playlists in their api endpoints anymore.

  • You will have to get the biography elsewhere (Google, Wikipedia, official site, etc.) and paste it into the editor.

• Photos and playlists are manually added now.

All you have to do is type a word from the artist's name, and then a list of matches will appear. From now on, with just a click, you will have to submit the form:

• Name

• Main Photo

• Global Chart Position

• Followers

• Popularity

• Genres

• Spotify link

• Social Media links (X, Facebook, and Instagram) if available

Tabs:

You will also have tabs to display:

• Photos from the artist in a grouped lightbox

• Albums (linked to Spotify)

• Playlists (linked to Spotify)

• Popular Releases (linked to Spotify)

• Related Artists

The tabs ALBUMS, POPULAR RELEASES, and RELATED ARTISTS are Ajax-loaded and represent the artist's current state on Spotify.

Other features:

• Fully integrated into the framework: Rest API, categories, extra fields, notifications, search, tags, follow, reactions, promote, etc.

Settings:

• Settings to control the app's behavior in several places/situations.

I was trying to locate a timezone setting for my board, and came across this in the Reputation and Reactions section of the ACP. It appears that the Music application may be missing a language string:

REPLACE INTO `music_groups` ( `music_group_id`, `music_access`, `music_submit` ) VALUES ( 2, true, NULL )
IPS\Db\Exception: Column 'music_submit' cannot be null (1048)
#0 /***/web/***/system/Db/Db.php(1040): IPS\Db->preparedQuery('/*bethelak_comm...', Array)
