Embed in Comments

    Hi –

    I’ve searched for an answer to this question for a few days and I haven’t come up with anything yet.

    I’m trying to help a friend figure out how to enable embedding in comments on a WordPressMU site. I have a www.remarpro.com install and I can embed just about anything I tried (Voki, Blabberize, streaming media, etc.) On my colleague’s site which is managed on a multiuser install, if we use the same embed code in a comment, it will either post the code or it will just post nothing.

    Just to be clear, I’m not referring to embedding in posts, I am talking about the comment system. We want to enable embedded objects in comments. It works in www.remarpro.com but it is not working on the MU site.

    Thanks in advance for your insight!

    Marc

  • on a WordPressMU site.

    Is it actually wpmu? Because 3.0 and up, it’s not mu anymore.

    you’ll have to write up a little plugin to allow it, tho I’m not sure anyone is able to embedd stuff in a single WP install without a plugin either.

    Were you logged in? And at what user level? A blog admin in multisite has slighty less capabilities than a blog admin of a standalone site.

    Images I think is the only thing you can embed in comments as a regular user.

    Admins can embed anything, IIRC.

    Thanks for your thoughts, I am double checking the exact version number. Trying to find it in the source – I don’t see it in the dashboard where it would be on a .org site.

    IPstenu – I was logged in as a site admin (not superadmin) and I could not embed any flash object. I tried to embed a YouTube video in a comment. That also did not work, even on the admin level.

    Apparently they took that out (probably came with the kses changes in 3.0.5). Makes sense, when you think about it. If ONLY admins can do that, it’ll screw with your head.

    in the same spot – the admin footer, lower right.

    Found it in the source afterall. It wasn’t in the footer on the dashboard for whatever reason on the multiuser site.

    Version is 3.0.5

    Thanks!

    Version is 3.0.5
