Soundcloud color config doesn't seem to work

See original GitHub issue

Hi, I was trying to create a soundcloud embed with a specific button color, which according to the soundcloud api documentation should work. All of the other soundcloud config works smoothly, but for the color it just adds ‘color=true’ to the iframe url

config={{ soundcloud: { options: { color: '#00174F', visual: false, show_playcount: true, buying: false, sharing: false, download: false } } }}

One workaround for this is to add the color property to the url instead of the config.

url={`${link}?color=${playButtonColor}`}

@cookpete it looks like none of the config overrides are working for SoundCloud which is no surprise given the age of that widget 😅

Options can be passed into the URL using @gilluminate’s suggestion e.g. ?show_artwork=false&buying=false
