Here's how to upload an mp3. First you make a post with the attachments at the bottom, then when done, you'll have a link and you can right click that and copy the link. Then you can paste the link inside the mp3 bbcode tags. To get those click the mp3 link at the top, and then it gives you the text like so:


and paste in the contents of the link in between, like so:

Similar to MP3's the same tags are used for Youtube, but you only need the very end string of a youtube video.

You take the URL:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdbLqOXmJ04

and take only the last part after the /watch?v= and paste that between the youtube tags like so:

Here's a question then, Phil, when you suggest linking an MP3 you are not suggesting a personal computer but instead a music site where commercial MP3s are stored? But we can still upload out personal MP3s (of short duration) here, correct?
Most people stall out when fixing a mistake that they've made. Why?

Yes you can upload any files, and then create a 'link' to them after uploading, just right click on the 'attachment' and then use that 'copy link' as the pasted area you link to the mp3.
