The plugin works perfectly with every theme except the Social theme. This leads me to believe that it probably has something to do with the Social theme itself. Any thoughts on this? </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/oembed-for-buddypress-doesnt-work-with-buddydress-social-theme#post-1431 Sun, 22 Aug 2010 13:30:13 +0000 tammie 1431@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>@send2df571: Perhaps as we appear to now be in the plugin / media area of issue rather than the theme I could suggest you post on the plugin's forum just if nothing else to see if they have experienced this in their default testing? Maybe could you also try the default theme and let us know if you have the same not working in IE with that one? I'd like to get some base results for this if I could from you. </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/oembed-for-buddypress-doesnt-work-with-buddydress-social-theme#post-1430 Sun, 22 Aug 2010 11:58:04 +0000 send2df571 1430@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Thanks...I'll post a note on my site asking people to use a different browser if they want to view video until we can find a solution. </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/oembed-for-buddypress-doesnt-work-with-buddydress-social-theme#post-1425 Sat, 21 Aug 2010 01:32:59 +0000 masonjames 1425@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Hiya,</p> <p>Sorry for the slow response. No worries though, I'm not frustrated with the questions, but the solution for IE escapes me. :P</p> <p>You are right, IE's usage is very widespread so it is important to take into account. So I'll keep on the lookout, but this is really odd to me and since I run my test installs from a mac I can't easily trouble-shoot it.

Still no video using IE8 in the activity stream. </p> <p>I'm with you, I don't like IE either. Unfortunately, since IE comes bundled with Windows millions of people use it, which is a problem if I'm going to use this template. Do you think theirs a solution for this issue? I know this must be frustrating for you, and I really appreciate your help! </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/oembed-for-buddypress-doesnt-work-with-buddydress-social-theme#post-1416 Wed, 18 Aug 2010 23:29:53 +0000 masonjames 1416@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Hiya Send2,</p> <p>Sorry about that, I missed your response here.</p> <p>I'm going to assume (hope) that you have ftp access and can get to your themes directory in WordPress. We're going to have you edit a specific property in one of the files which will hopefully get us some results!</p> <p>Go to this file on your server (through ftp or a file manager through cPanel, etc)<br /> wp-content&gt;themes&gt;bp-social&gt;_inc&gt;css&gt;base.css</p> <p>Once there open the file (or in cPanel you'll select "edit").<br /> Now in base.css we're going to scroll down to line 268 which says ".widget object, .widget embed, .widget param {"</p> <p>Below that you see a series of properties all for different things. The one we're concerned about is "height".</p> <p>You need to delete the entire line "height:auto;" so that everything else slides up a line. Then save the file.<br /> Now all your video content will display at the correct height! :D</p> <p>Now, as to Internet Explorer, I'm not sure whether this will fix this issue. Which version of IE are you running? I'm not a fan of this browser, personally though IE9 which is to be released soon shows some promise. I don't have a test install that I can test this at the moment, but looking at your site through IE I can see that it is loading the video in the source, just not displaying it.

We're all new at some point! :D</p> <p>I think there may have been a browser caching issue causing you not to see the videos because I've just checked out your site in both firefox and chrome and I see three videos in your Activity Feed and the latest video on your profile page.</p> <p>I am noticing the cropping issue of the videos and I'll see if I can get Tammie to chime in on the best way to handle this from within the child's style.css. For now I don't see a way to do this "gracefully" but you could add something like:<br /> .widget embed {<br /> height: 400px;<br /> }</p> <p>All your videos will then have this height. Like I said, less than graceful, but I'm sure Tammie'll have a better idea. Let me know if you're still unable to see the other videos showing up though. Try a different browser and try clearing your browser cache.

After posting a few video's, and testing them on my site, this is what I've found:</p> <p>I’m getting video on my profile page since I installed the oembed beta plugin. But, you can't see the video, nor a link to the video in the activity stream. If I post additional video it shows up on my profile, but the previous video is gone. Since they aren't showing up in the activity stream, the older video's are lost. Also, the video is to large for the viewing area. Assumming that we are able to fix the activity stream problem, is their a way to resize the video to the page? </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/oembed-for-buddypress-doesnt-work-with-buddydress-social-theme#post-1401 Tue, 17 Aug 2010 21:27:35 +0000 send2df571 1401@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Hey...I installed the oembed beta plugin, but there is still a problem. When I click the activities link on the upper right side of my home page, then post a link from youtube, I get no video and no link to video is displayed either. When I refresh the page, the video url shows up at the top of the page in the recent posts section with a "view" link next to it. When I click the "view" link the video appears, but is to big for the viewing area. Also, when I return to my home page and click on the activities tab on the menu bar and go to that page, no video or link to video is displayed. Confused yet? lol. If you go to my website at <a href="http://redrim.com" rel="nofollow">http://redrim.com</a> and post a video link, you'll see what I mean. Please check out the activities pages from both the menu tab and the links section as these are two different pages, and seem to act differently from each other as far as posting video is concerned.<br /> Your help is greatly appreciated! </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/oembed-for-buddypress-doesnt-work-with-buddydress-social-theme#post-1394 Tue, 17 Aug 2010 13:49:39 +0000 masonjames 1394@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Hmm.
