How to change audio player message using a shortcode

Your audio players can be customized to match the look and feel of your website. Apart from the color of the players, you can also change the what text is displayed on the players.

Normally, you'd save these settings from the Audio Player Customizations Page once and the settings will reflect on all your players. But sometimes, you might want to display a different message on the audio player for just specific articles. You can do that using a Short-code!

Copy and paste the Audio Player Short-code
