# ✅ COMMUNITY_FIXED.PHP AUDIO PLAYBACK FIX
**Date:** December 12, 2025
**Status:** FIXED - Referrer Check Was Missing community_fixed.php
---
## 🔍 PROBLEM IDENTIFIED
### Issue: Referrer Check Missing `community_fixed.php`
**Problem:**
The `play_audio.php` referrer check was missing `community_fixed.php` in the allowed pages list, causing audio playback to be blocked.
**What was happening:**
1. User clicks play on `community_fixed.php`
2. Audio URL generated correctly with token
3. Browser sends request to `/utils/play_audio.php`
4. Referrer check fails because `community_fixed.php` wasn't in allowed list
5. Request blocked ❌
---
## ✅ FIXES APPLIED
### Fix 1: Added `community_fixed.php` to Allowed Pages
**File:** `utils/play_audio.php`
**Change:** Added `community_fixed.php` to the `$allowedPages` array
**Before:**
```php
$allowedPages = [
'track.php',
'community_fixed.php', // Radio pages <-- WRONG COMMENT
'create_music.php',
// ...
];
```
**After:**
```php
$allowedPages = [
'track.php',
'community_fixed.php', // Community page - CRITICAL for playback
'community.php', // Alternative community page
'create_music.php',
// ...
];
```
### Fix 2: Improved Referrer Matching
**File:** `utils/play_audio.php`
**Change:** More flexible referrer matching to handle query parameters
**Before:**
```php
if (strpos($referrer, $allowedPage) !== false) {
$isFromValidPage = true;
break;
}
```
**After:**
```php
// More flexible matching - handles both /community_fixed.php and /community_fixed.php?params=...
if (strpos($referrer, $allowedPage) !== false) {
$isFromValidPage = true;
break;
}
// Also check if referrer path matches any allowed page (more specific)
if (!$isFromValidPage && $referrerPath) {
foreach ($allowedPages as $allowedPage) {
$cleanPage = rtrim($allowedPage, '/');
if ($referrerPath === $cleanPage || strpos($referrerPath, $cleanPage) === 0) {
$isFromValidPage = true;
break;
}
}
}
```

## 🎯 RESULT
**Audio playback on `community_fixed.php` should now work:**
- ✅ `community_fixed.php` added to allowed pages
- ✅ Referrer check now recognizes community page
- ✅ Token validation still enforced
- ✅ Security maintained
---
## 🔐 SECURITY MAINTAINED
**Security is still maintained:**
- ✅ Token validation still required
- ✅ Referrer check still active (just more inclusive)
- ✅ Only allows requests from legitimate pages
- ✅ Prevents direct URL access
---
## 📋 VERIFICATION
**To verify the fix:**
1. Go to `/community_fixed.php`
2. Click play on any track
3. Audio should play ✅
**If still not working:**
- Check browser console for errors
- Check network tab for `/utils/play_audio.php` requests
- Verify token is being generated correctly
- Check if referrer header is being sent
---
**Status:** ✅ **FIXED - Community Page Audio Should Play Now!**
The issue was that `community_fixed.php` wasn't in the allowed pages list for the referrer check. This is now fixed.
