Soundcloud embed shortcode does not work

by

The soundcloud short code does not seem to be working. I’ve tried over several days and it just shows up as raw code. Is this a glitch, has support officially been discontinued, is there some workaround?

[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/151458437" params="color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_artwork=true&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false" width="100%" height="166" iframe="true" /]

Using the latest wordpress 3.9.1

If you are on WordPress 3.5 or higher just putting the URL on a separate line should work:

You do not need to use the embed code, WordPress handles the embedding via oEmbed itself.

Also have a look at the Codex.

EDIT: If you want the small image you probably should have mentioned that in the question…

The easiest way probably is to put the embed code in

<iframe width="100%" height="166" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/151456970&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_artwork=true&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false"></iframe>
