What's next:

· Squash any bugs that pop up.
· Keep it compatible with new WordPress releases.
· Add more audio visualizers, as time and inspiration allow.

The core vision is complete. Everything from here builds on this working foundation. ✅

On the dev side: This has been a personal project built iteratively. The goal was always to execute on that initial idea—this version is that core concept, realized.

· Native support for DASH & HLS streams.
· Completed translations: Spanish, Russian, Romanian, Dutch, Swedish.
· Minimum PHP requirement raised to 5.6.

Key updates:

· Added a player customization layer: upload a stream logo, set a background image, and pick a primary UI color.
· Three new audio visualizers: Amplitude Waterfall, Bar Spectrum, and Spectral Particles.
· Increased concurrent stream limit to 10.

This feature is carefully designed to cover radio stations with several active streams or that may add alternative ones in the future. Stations can now manage up to six pages, each with its own stream, without losing control or simplicity. All based on real use cases from radio stations.

Obviously, this is not a final release — it’s a minimal, functional base intended as a starting point to extend both the player’s features and the overall user experience.

Built with React TypeScript, it leverages the Web Audio API for reliable, native playback control.
This approach ensures optimal performance, easier maintenance, and complete control over the UI and user experience—without the overhead or conflicts of typical WordPress themes or plugins.

This plugin serves a fully standalone radio player on a dedicated WordPress page, completely decoupled from the usual WordPress front-end.
By bypassing the theme and default WP scripts/styles, it provides a clean, minimal environment ideal for online radio streams, kiosks, or embedded apps.
