Please Help Created Apr 15, 2009

I deleted the video on the test page because I thought I found a fix but apparently it is just a wordpress plugin for blog posts only.

When I use the plugin I cannot get my video to show on the homepage but when I code it manually I cannot get the video to appear larger than 320x240.

So frustrating.

Anyone know how to make it larger?

Hm, I can't see you using flowplayer on your homepage, but I would look into the scale parameter of you swf object; atm it's set to noScale.

Hey Chatyak,

I am the author of the wordpress plugin you are trying to use.

Currently for 2.0.x versions of the plugin the size is dictated by the embed tag.

[FLOWPLAYER=media.mp4,500,200]

Where in the above 500 is the width in pixels and 200 is height in pixels.

As noted here:http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/word-press-flow-player/installation/

Plugin homepage here:http://saiweb.co.uk/wordpress-flowplayer

Please can you adapt it as a buddypress plugin whereby in the user profile the person can use it

BuddyPress will transform an installation of WordPress MU into a social network platform.

The doc for creating buddypress plugins

Any idea?

Hi Gpo1,

being as buddypress basically adapts wordpress to be a social network, there is no reason I can think of as to why this plugin wouldn't work 'out of the box'.

If this is not the case and IF there is enough intrest I will develop a seperate branch of this plugin to work with buddy press.

Thanks for your reply, there's a very big interest in media plugin for buddypress CMS
I want it on the front end without going to the blogs
on the users profile to play video
Check out the forum

Its abit different from normal wordpress.
hence the doc:

We all shall love it ,if you could work on this?
keep up the work.ep up the work?

Hi gpo1,

there's a very big interest in media plugin for buddypress CMS

What are your sources?

Any evidence you could provide for this?

On their forums "flowplayer" is not mentioned once in thousands of posts, as their search facility proves:http://buddypress.org/forums/search.php?q=flowplayer

Unless you can back up the demand for this with some reputable source I am afraid I can not commit any development time at the moment to porting the plugin to buddypress.

If however Andy or anyone else on the devteam for buddypress want to get in contact with me to request a port to their platform, I'd be happy too.

Cheers
