How to Add Autoplay Music to Your Profile

If you want to customize your profile page to autoplay music when people visit it, follow the steps below.

1) Grab the embed code of the music you want to use. You can use either a YouTube video or a Soundcloud file.

YouTube

Soundcloud

2) Insert this code into the text box at the top of your profile page. The text box should be right under the heading that says "[YOUR NAME]'s Page." To insert the code, you must click the "HTML" option button at the end of the menu row in your text box.

If your text box is not located at the top of your page, check underneath your activity feed. There should be an EDIT button; click this, and a text box will appear.

My YouTube video code looks like this:

3) Change the width and height numbers. In order for the YouTube video or the Soundcloud box to NOT show up on your page (be invisible), change both the numbers to 0 (zero).

Now my code looks like this:

4) Add the code to make it autoplay. Right after the URL that's included in the code, add "?autoplay=1"

The final code looks like this:

Click the save button. That should do it!

If you want the video to be invisible and just have the audio play, copy the code below (but make sure it's your video URL in the bold part).

K-Mod Comment by Victoria (Centauromadoose) on July 22, 2015 at 2:57pm: If you ever want to remove or change the music, you can just go back into the HTML view and the code will be there -- so you can still change it there without seeing it in normal view.

K-Mod Comment by Gumbo123 on July 22, 2015 at 2:03pm: from experience, I think that the width and height settings should be at 1 to 5 size, because zero (0) makes it next to impossible to find when/if you decide to remove or change the music.
