Topic summary
A user seeks help embedding a Spotify playlist into a blog post on their Shopify store using the Craft theme.
Solution provided (multiple confirmations):

- Select Share → Embed Playlist/Copy Embed Code
- Copy the generated iframe/HTML code

Open issue:
One participant reports the embedded playlist only plays 30-second previews instead of full songs, asking how to enable complete playback. This question remains unanswered, suggesting a potential limitation of Spotify’s embed functionality or account restrictions.
Multiple responses confirm the same basic process, with some including promotional links unrelated to the core question.
This should be more or less straight-forward –
First, you need to get the embed code from Spotify https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/widgets/guides/adding-a-spotify-embed/; https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/widgets/generate/embed/
Then you need to paste it into your article content:
go to your Shopify admin, edit the article content, click the “Show HTML” button (looks like </> – rightmost of the editor buttons) and then paste the code where you see fit.
@ottocoffeeclub - can you get the embed code for your playlist? we cna then add this code to article and your playlist will be visible on your site.
I’m new to the forum, but I think I can help you out. It’s actually pretty easy to embed a Spotify playlist. You just need to go to the playlist page on Spotify, click the “…” button, and select “Share” > “Copy Embed Code”. Then you just paste the code into the HTML of your blog post. Easy peasy! BTW, when it comes to how much does spotify pay per stream, it depends on a lot of factors, mainly the artist’s agreement and the country where the stream is coming from. But generally, it’s estimated that Spotify pays between $0.003 and $0.005 per stream. Hope this helps!

I got the embed code as I wanted to put it on my blog however it only does it as a “preview” meaning it only plays about 30 seconds or so of each song on the playlist instead of each song in it’s entirety. How do you change that so that the songs fully play instead of just the “preview” of them?
