    mmmm no, but its really easy. all you have to do is put the url of the file on the song form.. you can even configure a remote server URL to play all songs from there!

    I don't see any options to link to a remote file. I created an album, now when I click Add New Song, the only option is to upload, I can't paste an URL in the File box :(

    Is there any other way to do this other than from the Album Details page?

    Also, is there are way to prevent mp3 files from being renamed when they're uploaded?

    Thanks,

    well, the option to paste an URL is only available/visiable on the album backend form. on the frontend, you actually need to enter each song's form (after they've been created) to paste an URL

    but if you need to have the URL option in the frontend, you can make a small change on the frontend form layout.. its very easy...

    Thanks! Yes, I'd like the users to be able to link to mp3 files that are hosted elsewhere instead of uploading them. What change would I need to make?

    Cheers!

    hello Adam!

    it easy ;) open /components/com_muscol/views/album/tmpl/form.php

    go to line 518

    you'll see an INPUT field which type is "hidden", like this:

    type="hidden"

    you just need to change this to:

    type="text"

    that's all!
