Play Audio Once
Play Audio Once
Description
Adds the option to prevent an audio file from being played multiple times. You can set the option for the complete website
or restrict the audio files only for specific files added from you in your editor.
In the frontend, the option, if activated, is executed on the audio file if the visitor’s browser has JavaScript activated. That an audio file was played is saved in the browser session – not as a cookie. The storage takes place at the moment of playback, which means that it is no longer possible to rewind or fast-forward. The user is not offered an option to reset.

- Block Editor

Reviews
Does one thing very well, just as it says on the tin!

This is a an excellent single-use plugin that enhances the audio player block for a special use case: you want to play all the way through a recording one time only per user session when the block is set to autoplay. Autoplay on every page load is an annoying thing to inflict on people, so the relevant use case probably should be yours if you are using autoplay!
View Once Only! Excellent
