The mp2wp widget is featured by Raph Koster, CNET and other media: http://www.raphkoster.com/2009/06/30/embed-virtual-worlds-anywhere/ http://news.cnet.com/8301-17939_109-10275758-2.html ## Screenshots [⌊Configure your mp2wp.⌉⌊Configure your mp2wp.⌉[ Configure your mp2wp.

Upload the folder containing `mp2wp.php` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. 3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress. 4. To add a Metaplace world on a sidebar, browse to Design > Widgets and add the ‘ mp2wp widget” to desired sidebar. Configure the world title, embedding dimensions and world name and save your changes. 5. To add a Metaplace world to any blog-post or page just add the markup `[mp2wp]worldname, width,height[/mp2wp]`, for example `[mp2wp]ComicEmporium,400,350[/mp2wp]`. ## FAQ #### What is the minimum size for embedding a Metaplace world? Minimum size should be 400 pixels in height and widht. Otherwise people cannot login, because the “Enter this world” line is not shown in the frame. #### I don’t see any border around my embedded world Borders have been deliberately turned off in the plugin. If you want to get rid of this you may edit the `mp2wp.php` and remove all occurances of the HTML code ` frameborder="0"`. #### How do I add a virtual world to a blog-post? To add a virtual world to any post or page just add the markup `[mp2wp]worldname, width,height[/mp2wp]`, for instance `[mp2wp]ComicEmporium,500,450[/mp2wp]`. Note that supplying the worldname is mandatory while the width and height parameters are optional. Which means that you may specify only the worldname or only the worldname& width. Therefore, `[mp2wp]ComicEmporium,500[/mp2wp]` and `[mp2wp]ComicEmporium[/ mp2wp]` are valid tags. Also note that the order of width & height is important and worldname, width and height must be separated with commas. Lastly, the closing tag `[/mp2wp]` is mandatory. #### Can I add multiple embedded worlds on a post or page? Yes you can. Just add multiple `[mp2wp]` tags where required. All of these can be configured independently. #### Can I add multiple mp2wp widgets on the sidebar? Unfortunately no. As of now you can only add one instance on the sidebar. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “mp2wp widget” is open source software.
