No response was ever received from the OP. If you have any details to offer, I’m glad to help (such as example URL, shortcode you are using, etc.).
Thanks,

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] [Plugin: Google Doc Embedder] Spanish translationI will pull from this area to add translations to the plugin distributions, as far as people choose to participate in it. Thanks both for your work in translating the plugin.
If either of you can provide general instructions for adding a new translation to this system, I would gladly pass it on to other prospective translators. I can see how to change strings in existing translations but not how to add new ones from scratch. But as mentioned, I’m not very familiar with the system in use.

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] [Plugin: Google Doc Embedder] Spanish translationI have tried to log in to this site in the past but since the admin area is in Hungarian it is difficult to see how to add new translations? I have some others who want to translate but I’m not sure how to instruct them. Thanks.
The English UK version is actually the English US translation. Not quite the same as English UK (but probably close).

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] Pdf in lightboxIt’s not natively possible, but you can probably use another plugin to provide the lightbox and put the GDE shortcode into it.
I hope to add alternative options like this to GDE 3.0, after the 2.5 beta cycle is finished.

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] Doc not displayingYou can have a private site but the documents themselves have to be on a public site (even if the URL isn’t published anywhere, Google has to be able to reach it).
As for the particulars of your problem I’d need some kind of URL or example, otherwise I can only make a wild guess. π

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] Problem whit showing PDFI do not see the problem with Firefox. There is an add-on for web developers that lets you clear the Firefox cache by pressing one button. You might try it.

For some reason your default profile does not exist, either. So it is using the “max-doc-security” profile as the default, which blocks downloads. In this case adding save=”1″ does not make any sense. I don’t know why you have no default profile as it should not be able to be deleted (except via the database). When you install the plugin 2.5 beta 2 there should be 3 profiles listed on the Profiles tab. You only have 2. That is strange. You may want to uninstall it and install it again and see if you have 2 profiles or 3 listed on the Profiles tab. If you only have 2 after a new install, something is going wrong with your install.
I will fix it in beta 3 so that the save=”1″ is ignored and no link is shown at all if you have downloading blocked. So, I will fix at least one bug with your report π Thank you.

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] Problem whit showing PDFHi Julie,
I tried it in Firefox, Google Chrome, and IE9 and it loaded properly in all of them. In fact it is loading two times on the page. The download link however does not work – it is an empty link, but I see that you are blocking the file from being downloaded. The link shouldn’t show up at all in this setting. It would still help to know what shortcode you are using, if you are adding save=1 to it or something like that.
You probably have a problem with your cache. What browser are you using? Please try emptying your browser cache or temporary internet files. Unfortunately browsers have so many options now that this simple task is not always easy to do – if your site is bookmarked/favorited or if you use Chrome there are extra steps to clear the cache.

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] Problem whit showing PDFSorry for your trouble. I’ll need some information to help you.
Do you get an error message or just a blank space?
Does the download link still display (if enabled), or nothing?
What shortcode did you use that isn’t working?
Can you share a link where I can see the problem? Either here or by email directly (my address is near the top of gviewer.php in the GPL statement).Thanks

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] GDE Profiles Issue v2.5b2Thanks silverdragon,
To enable tho extended logging, open up functions.php in a text editor and find this line near the top:
@define( 'GDE_DX_LOGGING', 0 );Change the 0 to a 1 and save the file to your web site before activating GDE 2.5 beta for the first time. Once you do activate, it should create a new folder in the google-document-embedder folder called “log” with a single file in it called “log.txt”. That will contain a record of each step of the activation process and hopefully note where your activation has gone wrong, resulting in you having no profiles.
Let me know what you find out – either here or via email (my address is in the GPL statement near the top of gviewer.php).
Thanks for your extra efforts, if you have a chance.

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] GDE Profiles Issue v2.5b2I haven’t run into that problem elsewhere, and nobody else has reported it, so thanks for making me aware of the issue.
If you could possibly use a mysql tool like phpmyadmin or the Adminer plugin for wordpress and see if you have these tables in your wordpress database:
wp_gde_profiles
wp_gde_securewhere wp_ is your wordpress db prefix, which may be different. I wonder if it failed to create the tables for some reason and therefore couldn’t (and still can’t) write to them.
Not to put you out too much but if you want to assist me in troubleshooting the issue further, and can set up a different test blog so that your production web site isn’t affected, I can describe how you can obtain a detailed diagnostic log of the install process that would pinpoint the exact point of failure. But, I understand not everyone has the time or expertise to donate to that level of beta testing, so if you’re not up for it don’t feel too bad. π
Thanks,
Kevin

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] Only displays small window on some computersHi Michelle,
Your height is set to 100%. That doesn’t work quite the way it seems. Setting a height of 100% means that the iframe will be 100% the height of its parent container (the div it resides in), not 100% of the page. Since the parent div doesn’t have an explicit height, you’re getting the minimum the iframe contents will allow.
I recommend you set a pixel height (you may have to experiment to get the size you want).
Hope this helps,
Kevin

In reply to: [Google Doc Embedder] Only displays small window on some computersHi Michelle,
Could you post that screenshot somewhere to your web site and put the link here? Or else attach it to an email to me (my email address is in the GPL statement at the top of gviewer.php). When you say “some computers” do you mean specific browsers, or it’s totally random?
GDE 2.5 (currently in beta) will allow you to remove the download link in full screen view, as well as block the download completely even if the user gets the link manually from the source code of the page.
Thanks,
Kevin
