 * I have tried for 2 days to install JetPack and super cache plug ins.
    It fails
   every time. I need help now. Please install these for me. 2 of my most visited
   pages all of a sudden lost their ability to give visitors what they want. This
   has to be user friendly. It’s the opposite! Anita Runeson

 * No one here has access to your site – these are self-help forums – what error
   messages do you see when you try to install those?

   page still
    says I’m missing a plug in for the percentile weight calculator and

 * I have no problem to move around the wp dashboard!
 * All the plugins are working according to WP but the calculators on my pages still
   blank = aren’t working.
 * I thought Jetpack would solve this problem.
    What’s wrong? runeson

 * Regarding not able to access any of my pages on WP (which I can):
 * Jetpack said at that they were unable to validate my site.
    That may be the missing
   link… How can I validate my site? runeson

 * ok so this address loads the page for me:
 * [http://www.quality-baby-care-products.com/infant-weight-chart.html/](http://www.quality-baby-care-products.com/infant-weight-chart.html/)
 * the calculator is attempting to load a plugin from this url: [http://media.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf](http://media.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf)
   which is not found, but this url does load the calculator: [http://www.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf](http://www.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf)
 * is this calculator displayed through a plugin? if yes the plugin author should
   update the url they are pulling the file from
 * if this is code you’ve put in on the page, then you should just have to change
   the url you are calling

 * Thanks for the great info!
 * I copied what is a new embed code:
 * <object width=”500″ height=”740″><param name=”movie” value=”[http://media.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf”></param><embed](http://media.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf”></param><embed)
   src=”[http://media.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf&#8221](http://media.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf&#8221);
   type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”500″ height=”740″></embed></object
   >
    [By infantchart.com](http://www.infantchart.com/index.php)
 * As you can see it says type=”application/x-shockwave-flash”
 * Does it mean it requires shockwave flash?
    is that an Adobe feature?
 * I deleted the old embed code that didn’t work but it showed an error message
   
   saying missing a plug in.
 * The new embed code doesn’t work and doesn’t give any comment why.
 * Who would the plugin author be for contact?

 * the new embed code you pasted doesn’t have the correct url, so please try this:
 * `<object width="500" height="740"><param name="movie" value="http://www.infantchart.
   com/infantweightage.swf"></param><embed src="http://www.infantchart.com/infantweightage.

   object><a href="http://www.infantchart.com/index.php">By infantchart.com</a>`
 * to answer your other question, yes this is using flash and requires flash (i.
   e. not compatible with many phones)
 * the author would be whoever you got the embed code from

 * I tried the embed code above and it shows as the code when updated.
    I installed
   Adobe shockwave Player 12.1 and thought it would solve the problem, however this
   was the result:
 *  Installing Plugin from uploaded file: Shockwave_Installer_Slim.exe
    Unpacking
   the package…
 * The package could not be installed. PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find
   End of Central Dir Record signature.
 * Where do I find End of Central Dir Record signature?

 * i run linux and cannot help with installs of windows exe files, sorry
 * also, you again linked to not an incorrect url for your site (4 w’s)
 * viewing [this page](http://www.quality-baby-care-products.com/infant-weight-chart.html/)
   i can see that the embed code appears to have been entered in WYSIWYG mode for
   that page. Please change to text when in the editor and replaced the embed code
   that you put there with the code previously provided

 * i see you are very close but keep mixing the urls up!
 * are you actually copying and pasting the code i gave you?
 * right now i see it failing to load the calc, but using this embed code:
 *     ```
       <object width="500" height="740"><param name="movie" value="http://media.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf"></param><embed src="http://media.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="740"></embed></object><br />
       <a href="http://www.infantchart.com/index.php">By infantchart.com</a>
       ```
   
 * when I’ve been asking you to please try this code:
 *     ```
       <object width="500" height="740"><param name="movie" value="http://www.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf"></param><embed src="http://www.infantchart.com/infantweightage.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="740"></embed></object><br />

 * Hey, I actually have used both codes and none of them work.
 * But it could be since the adobe shockwave player install failed.
 * I’m currently talking to Adobe about this failure at the moment.

 * if you change your code back to the www version of the embed i can test from 
   a few different platforms here and let you know if it renders on any of them
 * using the mdei subdomain will not work as the server does not answer
