@r-a-y i upgraded to latest and the plugin died. work great with previous version.

WP single 2.9.2 BP 1.2

EDIT: just realized that even though you auto upgrade you have to go back and change the folder name

Could it be, that flickr-Slideshows don’t work correctly?? It just stays black…

Would this plugin allow embed codes from other services to display?

I’m running some “classroom” groups in my community and am trying to find a way to embed a ustream player directly onto the group (“classroom”) page. Our presentations and chats are live…so it wouldn’t work to have to upload a video to these other services first. (although it would be great for video archives).

Thoughts?

@r-a-y

ustream/watershed does allow embeds…but we use it to embed video players and chat boxes directly for live, interactive video chat sessions with large groups.

Point it…it’s not a URL, it’s the actual embed code…so I’m thinking that this plugin might not be the answer, no?

Ideally, the video could be embedded in the News section…but that is flexible. It just needs to be somewhere obvious and clear so students can easily watch and participate.

Somewhere between this and the Links plugin should be a way to make this work…

I love the plugin, Works great for activities.

I would like to embed a youtube video in the group description.

Nothing shows.

How can I do this?

This is a really great plugin, great use of the WP core oEmbed function. Do you have any idea how I can enable the oembed functions on the WP blog post comments too. So that the users have the same option everywhere on the site?

That would be great. I think a lot of wp users would be very happy with such a plugin too. Thanks!

Hi, I just added a embed provider like the following code in theme functions.php, it can work with blog post, but not the activity stream, I tried to add mytube.com in the whitelist but still doesnt’ work. Is there i’ve something missing?

I’m using WPMU 2.9.1.1 and BP 1.2.1

Thanks so much for your help

<?php

$width = (int) $rawattr[‘width’];

$height = (int) $rawattr[‘height’];

} else {

list( $width, $height ) = wp_expand_dimensions( 640, 360, $attr[‘width’], $attr[‘height’] );
