Alright – I installed it and activated it. But there are no instructions from the creator as to how I am supposed to use it. I’m not sure what to do with it now.
I have tried copying and pasting the same code in the text-widget box on my sidebar, but nothing comes up.
Am I supposed to use a different code now that I have a this new plugin?
Any help would be greatly appreciate! Thanks Sam!
Any php code that you use in other wp files can be executed here..
like the code below will display recent posts from a specific category of your choice.
<ul>
<?php $recent = new WP_Query("cat=1&showposts=10"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark">
<?php the_title(); ?>
</a></li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul>
just drop the code in as is
if nothing comes up, I would think something else is wrong, but put the code here
pastebin.com
and come back with link and I’ll test it
I appreciate both of your input.
I consider myself pretty tech-savvy, but that you have posted is over my head.
Try ‘dumbing it down’ a bit. 🙂
-What am I doing with that code linked above? I have copied and pasted it to my text box on my sidebar. “have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?> ” This is what becomes visible after pasting it. Am I supposed to put my URL in there somewhere?
-What code am I supposed to drop in to pastebin.com? The code that I am currently trying to make work?
Just a bit more thorough instructions – I’m a bit lost. 🙂
Thanks again – I really do appreciate your time.
The code that I am currently trying to make work?
yes – I would like to test it
Ughh. I tried firefox and IE. Every time I paste it and hit submit, it takes me to a “page that doesn’t exist”. Error 404.

That is the link they e-mailed me. But I doubt it will work as it kicks me out every time I click on it… ? If you are quick enough, you can hurry, highlight, and copy it before it dissappears. Any other ideas?
Again, I think that code works…just not when it is on the sidebar. When I post that exact code on my blog or on any page, it works just fine…. *sigh*
Thanks Sam. Let me know what to do from here.
I’m at work now – give me 3-4 hours and I’ll give it a whirl

this works for me
you may need to adjust width – it was too wide for my sidebar
I have tried adjusting the width countless times.
I have tried taking items out of my sidebar as maybe it could have been ‘overloaded’
I have tried changing the video.
I have tried everything – it seems like. It just doesn’t work. I’m about ready to throw my computer off a cliff! lol.
Isn’t there different code that I can put video files in to and make them work? Seems like ‘swf’ or something was involved?
Any chance I can get you to remove that code? I would rather not have my site posted on this forum 🙂
Thanks again for your help!
Alright – I just posted this code both in the sidebar as well as in a post. In BOTH areas – they have a white box that comes up – but it does not play. Any idea what I have to do to make it work? I am using that viper program. Is there something else that must be activated to make this play? I am so close… *crosses fingers*
[swf src=”URL” width=240 height=173]
the only time I’ve used flash I used a plugin
http://kimili.com/plugins/kml_flashembed/wp
YES! It worked! Greatly appreciated! I just changed my flash video from .flv to .swf, and used the Kimili plugin.
[kml_flashembed movie=”URL.swf” height=”300″ width=”390″ /]
But, for some reason, it continues to re-play over and over. Plus, there is no stop, pause, or play button. It is just a screen with the video. Any thoughts on how to change it?
I went in to the kimili options and changed the ‘loop’ to false. Any idea why it is not working? Thanks for all your help!
from the FAQ
I set the play attribute to false in my KFE, but the video I’m embedding still plays. What gives?
The play parameter is misleading when it comes to embedding video. What it does is tell a simple flash movie with a timeline to play or stop, but that’s not the case with video. At its simplest, Flash video requires you have a player SWF – which has the playback controls and the stage for showing the video – and a video file – most likely an FLV – which gets loaded in the player SWF. The KFE play parameter has no control over the playback of video, but the player SWF does. Most video player SWFs have some way to play or stop the loaded video defined which is specific to that player. It could be a parameter that you pass to the video player when you load it. It could be a Javascript function that you call. It could be a combination of these things, too. You’d need to reference the documentation of the player that you’re using in order to find out what works for you in your specific situation.
if you don’t think that’s it
