Solución a problemas con WP-Spotify en WordPress 3.X / WP-Spotify Fix
Uno de mis plugins favoritos es WP-Spotify, desarrollado por David Hermansson, pero no bien mantenido por el mismo. Implementa un cuadro con enlaces a una canción de Spotify, indicando autor, carátula, disco y tema, así como el número de «Likes» en Facebook.
Desgraciadamente, en las últimas versiones de WordPress da un problema que nos hace imposible usar este componente en WordPress 3.1 y superior.
Ahora, gracias a la ayuda de Matt Davies, podemos ofrecerle a la comunidad la primera solución para este problema. Con unos cambios en el código, podéis disponer de este maravilloso plugin. En caso de tener problemas es muy importante borrar la tabla creada por este plugin en vuestra base de datos del blog.

One of my favorite plugins is WP-Spotify, developed by David Hermansson but not properly mantained. It shows a Spotify song with album, cover, autor and «Likes» count on Facebook. Unfortunately, last versions of wordpress have some issues with this plugin that doesn´t work well. Now, thanks to the work of Matt Davies, we have a fix for all community to avoid this problem. Some code changes allow now the plugin to run on new WordPress websites. It´s highly recommended to drop «spotify» table on WordPress database.
A couple of examples…

Thanks for the mention matey! Glad to see its all working for you :)
Thanks to you for fixing this issue with plugin, a must have in WordPress that hasn´t been updated for a while. At least now, we can use it again.
Thanks a lot
How do you get that wallpaper background on the spotify link?
Attached to the plugin there is a .CSS file that you can custom in the way you like.
If you have a look at mine, you’ll see changes to setup yours.
Cheers
