Greetings,
**Context:**
I run [this website]). We are the world reference for audio in the Tabletop Roleplaying Games industry (a rather small industry though). On the website, we run a store for licenses. It faces several problems :
* Our audio catalog has over 2100 entries and it’s growing by more than a hundred per month, meaning that I can’t keep up with manually updating it.
* It’s unhandy to listen to the tracks and it causes some security issues (our files could be directly downloaded).
* It’s hard to find the right tracks as each page has to be opened manually.
**Objective:**
In that regard, I’d like to build a new and fast store that would dynamically list the tracks. A mix between this example [Sword Sound Effects (soundsnap.com)]) and our current [DataBase page]). Visitors could click play and add to cart on each item.
Ideally, I wouldn’t have to create a new page for each product, but rather to drop or select the files and create the products according to some variables defined in bulk.
Also, I plan to redo the website entirely, as I don’t find it professional enough, so I’m fine with a solution wider than a store page.
If you got any recommendation, I’d be really grateful as I have no idea how to handle that situation.
Michael

This is a really cool project. I’m actually curious what soundsnap.com is built with. I’m checking out the profile in BuiltWith and don’t see any WordPress tags but could be wrong.
I’ve been looking at different themes/plugins but don’t see anything that will automate adding bulk products. Plus they don’t look as clean as soundsnap.com.
Wish I could be of more help! Good luck on finding a (hopefully cheap and easy) solution!
You def need database management (like Relevanssi) and some ACF work. It won’t be cheap. I’d be happy to share my full stack developer info.
I have see some Table plugins that have audio as a potential field. I will try and look it up for you.
For preventing direct download, I’d look into these solutions:
They may also be able to help you with management.
Hi,
Check out MP3 Audio Player Pro plugin by Sonaar. it’s exactly what you are looking for. Extremely flexible, has bulk importer, compatible with Woocommerce, search feature through your tracklist, etc..
Don’t hesitate if you have any questions about it
