Hi,
I am trying to use the built in mediaelement.js in wordpress in my custom theme.
I have a template file that has two custom fields that returns the url of the mp3 audio file or video file.
I am using this code:
echo do_shortcode('[audio src="' . the_field( 'audio' ) . '"]');
But it only returns the url echoed out in the browser.
I i use the code with a hardcoded url it works:
echo do_shortcode('[audio src="example-song.mp3"]');
I hope someone can help me with this little problem :-)
