Insert Music in your Facebook Post: Working 2012 Trick

You can use this trick to post music on,

1. Your own Timeline/Wall.
2. Friend’s Timeline/Wall.
3. Your Facebook Fan Page.

Earlier trick which I posted doesn’t works now. As Facebook has updated its PHP file to uiserver.php, a new code should be used to make this trick possible. This update occurred recently.

I would like to explain it in a step wise manner so that beginners could easily grasp this trick.

Step 1: Browse web to get a direct MP3 URL of your Favorite song to be inserted in your Facebook Post.

Step 2: Copy the below code and paste it in your favorite text editor, say Notepad.

http://www.facebook.com/connect/uiserver.php?app_id=208432445848189

&method=stream_publish
&redirect_uri=http://www.facebook.com/
&action_links=[{"text":"Posted",
"href":"http://mcaf.ee/zyb7h"}]
&attachment={"media": [{
"type": "mp3",
"src": "MUSIC LINK HERE",
"title": "MUSIC TITLE HERE",
"artist": "ARTIST NAME HERE",
"album": "MUSIC ALBUM HERE"
}]}

Step 3: Facebook Music player doesn’t syncs the music details from the link. So, you must replace the text MUSIC LINK HERE, MUSIC TITLE HERE, ARTIST NAME HERE and MUSIC ALBUM HERE with your direct MP3 link of your favorite music, Title of your music, Composer’s name and Album Title respectively in the code.

Step 4: After replacing, your code becomes ready for the usage. You can now paste the entire code in your Address bar of your Web browser. Paste them there and hit Enter. When you see a music player embedded in your post, you are successful in making use of this trick. Just click the Play button on the player to test whether it Plays or not. When you get better results, you may click on the Share button to spread among your Friends.

You may also have a look on my previous posts for more news, tips and tricks.

You can also use a ready made example code for testing this trick on your Profile. I have added "Why this Kolaveri Di” song for example as it has become popular world wide recently.

&method=stream_publish
&redirect_uri=http://www.facebook.com/
&action_links=[{"text":"Posted",
"href":"http://mcaf.ee/zyb7h"}]
&attachment={"media": [{
"type": "mp3",
"src": "http://www.songspk320z.com/Singles/Why%20This%20Kolaveri%20Di.mp3",
"title": "Why This Kolaveri Di?",
"artist": "Aniruth Ravichander",
"album": "3"
}]}

Paste the above code directly in your address bar of your web browser and press Enter.

To Post Music in your Friend’s Wall/Timeline, just add the below line at the end of the code

&target_id=USER ID OF THE PERSON

Replace USER ID OF THE PERSON to your Friend’s ID. Please note that I said ID, not username. To find the ID of the person, Go to his/her timeline and click on the Gear icon. Make a ‘Right Click’ on See Friendship menu. Choose ‘Copy Link Location’ option from the pop out menu. Just Paste it in Notepad and analyze the Link.

You will see a link similar to this: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=123456789&and=98765431. Here 123456789 is your ID and 987654321 is your Friend’s ID. I just explained from the example link. You can grab this by experimentation.

To Post Music in your Fan Page, you need to insert two lines in the code which you use.

&from=PAGE ID
&target_id=PAGE ID

Insert the above lines at the end of the code. Replace PAGE ID to your Facebook Fan Page ID. Please see that both &from and &target_id must contain same ID of your Page. If you did not specify &from, then it posts with your name and not as your page.

To get the Page ID, open Admin Panel in your Page’s Timeline. Right Click on the See All button in the notification section. Choose Copy Link Location and paste it somewhere in Notepad. Just analyze the link. You could find your Page’s ID. Insert them directly here.
