# Displaying a playlist

There are four ways to put a playlist in front of a visitor.

{% hint style="info" %}
**There is no shortcode.** The plugin ships an `e_shortcode.php` file, but it is empty — it was empty in the WordPress original too, and appears to have been left in place for future use. You cannot insert a playlist with `{...}` syntax.
{% endhint %}

## As a menu

The most common way. The plugin registers a **menu** that you place in a theme menu area like any other e107 menu.

When configuring the menu you choose:

* **Caption** — the heading shown above the player. This can be set per language.
* **Playlist** — which playlist to show, from a dropdown of the playlists you have created.

If no playlist is chosen, the menu falls back to playlist `1`.

## As a page

The plugin has its own front-end page:

```
plugin/jplayer/jplayer.php?playlist_id=1
```

Replace `1` with the playlist's ID from the admin list.

Called with no `playlist_id` at all, the page shows playlist `1`.

## In a popup

```
plugin/jplayer/jplayer.php?playlist_id=1&iframe=false
```

Opens the player in its own popup window. The player's own popup button uses this.

## Embedded in an iframe

```
plugin/jplayer/jplayer.php?playlist_id=1&iframe=true
```

This is the version meant to be embedded on **another site**. The player renders a ready-made `<iframe>` snippet in a text box, so a visitor can copy it and paste it into their own page.

Social sharing links appear alongside it when the *social meta* preference is on.
