echeng 0 Posted February 19, 2013 Hello, everyone. The new Wetpixel embeds videos and pictures very differently than does the old one. There is no more need to use bbcode (bbcode for images will still work, but bbcode for video embeds will no longer work). To embed, just paste the URL into the body. We currently support: jpg gif png YouTube Google Video MySpace Video GameTrailers Flickr Image Set MP3 Vimeo Lytro living pictures Flickr Video (removed 2/25/13) Windows Media Player (hosted .wmv files) I'd love to support Flickr images, as well, but their embeds are a little more complicated. I have to give it another try. Any other embed desires? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
echeng 0 Posted February 19, 2013 I wish! Smugmug has a bunch of IDs in its URL, and some of the code used in the embed is not discoverable by URL. Here's a typical URL: http://photos.echeng.com/Prints/Print-Sales/3381454_KFBCGG#!i=189233567&k=2GxQNf6 ... and how it wants to be embedded: <a href="http://photos.echeng.com/Prints/Print-Sales/3381454_KFBCGG#!i=189233567&k=2GxQNf6&lb=1&s=A" title="Juvenile loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) being released into the wild in Palm Beach, Florida"><img src="http://photos.echeng.com/Prints/Print-Sales/i-2GxQNf6/2/M/echeng10082-M.jpg" title="Juvenile loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) being released into the wild in Palm Beach, Florida" alt="Juvenile loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) being released into the wild in Palm Beach, Florida"></a> I don't see the filename ("echeng10082-M") in the URL, so I don't think I can do automatic embedding.

Ronyx 6 Posted February 19, 2013 Oh well it was worth asking. I guess it works for the ADVrider.com forum as that site was created by the Smugmug people Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
echeng 0 Posted February 19, 2013 Yeah. Well, if I hack something that uses the Smugmug API, it may be possible. Do you have a link to a post with a URL-embedded Smugmug picture on that forum? Maybe there's another way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ronyx 6 Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Eric, Here is the thread http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?p=20763842#post20763842 this uses a BBCode link. This uses a photo link: http://scottpowell.smugmug.com/Motorcycles/MLW-2011-1/i-zLzH7tD/1/M/Powell_20110522_8871-M.jpg Edited February 19, 2013 by Ronyx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
echeng 0 Posted February 20, 2013 Thank you. Do you know offhand the format of the bbcode link? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ronyx 6 Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) Does this help. This one is for a different picture Edited February 20, 2013 by Ronyx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
echeng 0 Posted February 20, 2013 Oh. You can always use the standard image bbcode to embed things. That is no problem. But I can't get enough information from the main URL to auto-embed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

liquidguru 17 Posted February 21, 2013 Good to have an upgrade. Thanks. But this means that every bit of video that has ever been posted/embedded here now no longer displays? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
echeng 0 Posted February 21, 2013 That is true. I'll add to my list a TODO item to go back and revive all of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liquidguru 17 Posted February 22, 2013 That is true. I'll add to my list a TODO item to go back and revive all of them. Thanks Eric. And thanks for the RSS feeds again. Working perfectly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rtrski 20 Posted February 22, 2013 ...I'd love to support Flickr images, as well, but their embeds are a little more complicated. I have to give it another try. Any other embed desires? I noticed that if you link to the 'set' link in Flickr, it shows up automatically as a flash-based slide show here. Just checked and one I posted like that before the migration still works. I think Flickr is just fine, with this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
echeng 0 Posted February 25, 2013 I've removed the Flickr video embed. The regexp system here for matching is a bit weird, and I can't find a way to match only embedded video while leaving other Flickr links alone. So your Flickr URLs should all work again without creating the empty embed. Flickr sets still work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
