Make it work with Wordpress
02/02/2007 by dlg

I already know about the issues with embeded objects with WP, but if Youtube , google video ... etc, can work no matter this things, i think Good Widgets also can do it. I mean, Itīs only about de paste code, doesnīt it??

Well it looks like wordpress only allows certain things to be embedded within a post. Take a look: http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/10/23/can-i-add-flash-video-embed-other-media/ However there is a work around. Here is an example of a user embeding one of our widgets within wordpress using an Iframe: http://jefferyrainey.com/blog/?p=171 Essentially what he did was create a html page with the widget embedded in it. Then pull that page in an iframe on your wordpress page. Note: It wont work for a blog hosted at wordpress.com. They block the iframe tag.

FYI: We have added a Wordpress specific code snippet for you to use. So users wont have to bother hosting their widget in a separate html page as described in above solution.
