Audio Wave Block adds a block to the Block Editor, that can be used to play any audio file on your site. It only has a Play/Pause button and shows the waveform of the audio, and during playing it shows a progress bar, using the WaveSurfer library.

Features:

  • Shows the audio waveform, representating the sound levels of the audio file.
  • Progress bar can be dragged to any position.
  • Customizable colors for the player background, button and waveform (played/unplayed).
  • Multiple players can be present on a single post/page.
  • When starting a player, any other players that are already playing on the same page will pause (avoiding multiple players running at the same time).

Third-Party Libraries

This plugin includes WaveSurfer.js (https://wavesurfer.xyz/) v7.12.6, used for audio waveform rendering.
