    Hey Denzel,

    I’m having issues with 2.8.6. When I post a video, the Vimeo loader/logo pops up but the video does not load. Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Hi, I’m trying to change the colour to something that goes a bit better with my web site, the options in the dialog menu aren’t really that great for my site.
    In vimeo I saw that for embedding they offer the choice of White as well, can I modify the code somewhere to get that option in the plug in as well?

    Thanks,
    Petra

      Hi,

      Open up dialog.htm find <option value=”ff0179″>Fuscia</option>
      and add this below <option value=”ffffff”>White</option>

      Do not copy from here and paste. Type out the whole thing. Double Quotes to ffffff

      Regards,

      Hi shafalcon,

      Since WordPress version 2.5, WordPress.org has upgraded the TinyMCE (which is the visual editor of WordPress) to version 3. My Vimeo Quicktag Plugin is written for TinyMCE version 3, therefore you are unable to use it for your site, as you are running wordpress 2.1.

      I suggest that you upgrade to WordPress version 2.7.1 which has the latest admin features, and it is also the most secured version.

      Thank you for trying out my plugin!

      Regards,

      Denzel

      Hi Patrick,

      Sorry for the inconvenience,

      I just found out that wordpress mu by default strips all tag due to security reasons, it is to prevent users from embedding malicious objects that will compromise security of the entire wordpress mu blog. However, if you trust your users, you may download the revised copy for wordpressmu from my blog link http://denzeldesigns.com/2008/12/vimeo-quicktags-wordpress-mu/ and upload to wp-content/plugins/ and replace the copy on your server.

      This will do the trick. :)

      The codes that overrides the filter are found in a plugin from http://wpmudev.org/project/Allow-Embedded-Videos the author is Stuart Maxwell

      Hi Patrick,

      Thank you for using my plugin. I have tried in wordpress mu 2.6.5 and found some errors in my code. I have already changed it and uploaded an updated version 1.1. Please kindly download and reinstall again. Please unzip and ftp the files into wp-content/plugins/ and activate. Click on write and wait for the whole page to load. You will have to refresh you browser and wait for it to reload again, in order to see the vimeo quicktag.

      Sorry for any inconvenience,

      Regards,
      Denzel
