Frequently Asked Questions
What audio file formats are supported?
Elfsight supports all of the following audio file extensions (for uploaded tracks or direct file links): m4a, mp4a, mpga, mp2, mp2a, mp3, m2a, m3a, wav, weba, aac, oga, spx, so most standard audio files will work fine.
Can I upload my own music files, or only use links?
Yes, the Elfsight music widget allows both direct file uploads and adding tracks by URL – you can upload audio files or paste external audio links.
What is the maximum audio file size?
The maximum upload size per audio track is 100 MB, which is sufficient for most high-quality or long music files.
Which audio sources does Elfsight support?
Elfsight’s Background Music supports SoundCloud tracks, YouTube (audio from videos), Shoutcast/Icecast streams, and self-hosted audio files.
Do I need API keys for YouTube or SoundCloud?
No, you don’t need any API key. Just paste the track’s URL into the widget and it will play it. Elfsight handles the integration without requiring you to provide API credentials.
Can I show or hide the playlist?
Yes, the Background Music widget can display a playlist of tracks if you want, or you can keep the playlist panel hidden for a minimal look.
Can I enable shuffle or repeat by default?
You can preset the widget to start with Shuffle on (random order) and/or Loop on (repeat enabled) by default when it loads.
Does the Background Music autoplay on page load?
Elfsight offers an autoplay setting. If enabled, it will try to start playing automatically on load. However, most browsers require user interaction before allowing audio.
Can I add a background image to the player?
Yes, you can use a custom background image. The widget lets you upload an image to serve as the player’s background instead of a solid color.
Will Background Music pause other audio on the device?
On mobile, when the Background Music plays, it will pause any other audio – for example, if the user had Spotify on – because phones allow only one audio source at once.
Can I add custom buttons to tracks?

Can Background Music be used on any website platform?
Elfsight works with all major builders like BigCommerce, Blogger, Drupal, Facebook Page, Joomla, jQuery, iFrame, Magento, Elementor, HTML, OpenCart, Shopify, Squarespace, Webflow, Webnode, Weebly, Wix, WordPress, WooCommerce, Google Sites, GoDaddy, Jimdo, PrestaShop.
How can I embed Background Music on my website?
You can add the widget to your website with minimal setup:
- Select a template in the Elfsight editor.
- Upload tracks or add audio links and adjust playback settings.
- Embed the generated code into a Custom HTML block on your website.
