OMG! What a list! Well, you asked for it. 😉

Why not make 3.0 the integration version of WP and WPMU?

Thus, only including some features – for example (sub) domain support – to make WordPress rock for both single blog users and multiblog users. Any other added features would be part of 3.1.

It might save you a headache not having to worry about new features AND integrating WPMU at the same time. Besides, this way the community has some time to come up with a nice list of feature requests for 3.1 (and possibly 3.2). I mean, it’s not that WP 2.9 is totally useless without new added features. 😉 So maybe you should take your time to integrate first.

Anywayz, just my two cents…

OK. That was a bit short. I’ve puzzled together the following, grabbing code from forum. This creates a bullet list of .pdf and .doc attachments.

<ul>
    <?php
        $args = array(
          'post_type' => 'attachment',
          'post_mime_type' => 'application/pdf,application/msword',
          'numberposts' => -1,
          'post_status' => null,
          'post_parent' => $post->ID,
          'orderby' => 'menu_order',
          'order' => 'desc'
          );
        $attachments = get_posts($args);
        if ($attachments) {
          foreach ($attachments as $attachment) {
            echo '<li><a href="'.wp_get_attachment_url($attachment->ID).'">';
            echo $attachment->post_title;
            echo '</a></li>';
          }
        }
    ?>
    </ul>

Do you have a URL now?

It might very well be the cause: the embed code contains a lot of quotes. Missing one that should have been escaped, will ruin your output.
I’d go for the code as provided and changing the content of the videoembed field to the url of the movie. See what happens if yuo try that.

Resulting in something like:


<object width="640" height="344"><param name="movie" value="<?php $key='videoembed'; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?>"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="<?php $key='videoembed'; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?>" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="344"></embed></object>


I’ve put videoembed between different (single) quotes, to prevent the value to become value="<?php $key=" – after which it breaks.

The code you provide is just grabbing data from an extra field called “videoembed”. I assume you have this field available in at least one post to embed video?

Dunno, just guessing, but maybe your video player can’t handle empty file locations? Or…

A link to your site would be handy.
