Here’s what I’ve found when trying to embed uncommon video types (such as Brightcove and PodTech) on WordPress blogs. The TinyMCE visual editor tool in WordPress is the problem. It will often strip out or corrupt the player code when you go to save the blog post. The solution is to turn off the visual editor (in your account settings) when embedding video. Also, do not let anyone come back later and open up the blog post with the visual editor on; it’ll screw up the video code as well. That’s been my experience, anyway.

I’m going to bump this, since I’m experiencing the same issues ever since upgrading a client from 2.0x to 2.2. I’m getting similar problems in IE6 and Firefox 2 on Windows, but only in certain environemnts.

I have 20 other blogs to upgrade, but am leery if this problem is going to persist. I’ve noticed several other posts with similar or identical issues, but I’ve yet to see a real solution.

Can’t you just use htaccess to make your blog directory unreachable by the public? That is probably the easiest and most secure.

It’s in fat.js, which is in wp-includes/js.

Now, can anyone tell me how to do the opposite – change the color that it fades TO?

I take that back. I don’t think believe that the above plugin requires email subscribers to confirm their subscriptions, as long as the admin adds the email address through the control panel. So that should work.

Feedblitz (and Feedburner) do require confirmation. I’m not sure how you’d accomplish that through the Yahoo group. Plus, those services only send out a single digest email once a day, usually overnight.
