vimeo video problem not posting to article

I’m new to textpattern and i’m trying to post a vimeo video link via an article and it doesn’t show up. I’ve tested you tube and it will work. Is it a problem with the embed code that vimeo uses. i have hak_tinymce installed for my client. i was hoping he could insert the html code.. but nothing shows ups..

here is the video code.
<iframe src=“http://player.vimeo.com/video/15336921?byline=0&amp;portrait=0” width=“380” height=“214” frameborder=“0”></iframe>

any help would be much appreciated!
thanks!

Re: vimeo video problem not posting to article

If I convert your curly quotes to straight ones it works fine for me. Else I get The requested resource was not found.

Try this here:
<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/15336921?byline=0&amp;portrait=0" width="380" height="214" frameborder="0"></iframe>

If you can’t get it to work, try disabling hak_tinymce. If it’s the culprit, ask in the hak_tinymce thread, hakjoon is really helpful.


In bad weather I never leave home without wet_plugout, smd_where_used and adi_form_links

Re: vimeo video problem not posting to article

thank you, it worked if i disabled hak_tinymace. Hmmm.. maybe i talk to hakjoon. it worries me to allow my client to be messing around in the plugin settings.
much appreciated!

Re: vimeo video problem not posting to article

for some clients who wanted to use the tinymce and also embed videos quickly, i had set up a custom field so they could just put the youtube video id in there and the article form would do the rest. wasn’t the most ideal thing though, but did help if they needed to use a specific size but couldn’t remember it (ie if you have a narrow blog)
