Slideshare

[http://www.slideshare.net]

Description

It would be natural to include slideshare in the list of embeddable services here. It's getting widely used, and it's free. I use Wikidot for educational purposes, and it would be valuable to have the students embed their PPs etc on their project pages.

Code

 Post an example of the code used to embed a the service here. Two or more examples are great, but one is enough. Please do not use @@[[embed]]@@.

There is another embed wish with a working example: http://community.wikidot.com/embed:27 from gerdami

Code

(code type changed here to "html" for iframing it… - helmuti-pdorf)

1. You need a single wikidot page ( best in your own site) with this code!

Use a code block with tyope)"HTML" as an ecample:

[[code type="HTML"]]
… insert the code here…
[[/code]]
Here is the code in question:

<style type="text/css">table.lfmWidgetchart_f63afc70638ba21fc3dbce5a81ca6c2a td {margin:0 !important;padding:0 !important;border:0 !important;}table.lfmWidgetchart_f63afc70638ba21fc3dbce5a81ca6c2a tr.lfmHead a:hover {background:url(http://cdn.last.fm/widgets/images/en/header/chart/recenttracks_regular_black.png) no-repeat 0 0 !important;}table.lfmWidgetchart_f63afc70638ba21fc3dbce5a81ca6c2a tr.lfmEmbed object {float:left;}table.lfmWidgetchart_f63afc70638ba21fc3dbce5a81ca6c2a tr.lfmFoot td.lfmConfig a:hover {background:url(http://cdn.last.fm/widgets/images/en/footer/black.png) no-repeat 0px 0 !important;;}table.lfmWidgetchart_f63afc70638ba21fc3dbce5a81ca6c2a tr.lfmFoot td.lfmView a:hover {background:url(http://cdn.last.fm/widgets/images/en/footer/black.png) no-repeat -85px 0 !important;}table.lfmWidgetchart_f63afc70638ba21fc3dbce5a81ca6c2a tr.lfmFoot td.lfmPopup a:hover {background:url(http://cdn.last.fm/widgets/images/en/footer/black.png) no-repeat -159px 0 !important;}</style>

proxy any js

Embeddable any js in iframe

example

Description

easily embed any js inside iframe.
an example, i setup on appjet platform:

http://js2frame.jgate.de/?js=http://PUT.ANY/your-embeddable.js

Code

 [[iframe http://js2frame.jgate.de/?js=http://gist.github.com/146055.js]]

but, preferably it's built into wikidot itself.
maybe make it something like this:

 [[jsframe]]   [[/jsframe]]

and the result is the script contained inside iframe
and everything works without user even know how it works.

Embeddable Service Name Here

[uservoice.com UserVoice Feedback Service]

Description

Powerful elegant tool to permit visitors to provide feedback and suggestions. You have to see it in action to appreciate its elegance!

Code

Screenshot

Small Tab on left side of page.
When clicked black over lay opens with feedback solicitation form.

Drawbacks

Unfortunately the iFrame workaround is not applicable here as the service needs full screen width when opened so the only way to use it is to embed it in the content frame/div/column

LastFm

About Last.fm
Last.fm is a music service that learns what you love…

Every track you play will tell your Last.fm profile something about what you like. It can connect you to other people who like what you like - and recommend songs from their music collections and yours too.

There are several widgets from last.fm that can be embedded such as

a radio player
a list of last played songs
a top albums music quilt

Code

Post an example of the code used to embed a the service here. Two or more
examples are great, but one is enough. Please do not use [[embed]].

Workaround

To wikidot team: forget this embed since it can be easily embedded thanks to the Iframe Code type html technique.

Google Friend Connect:

Support Google Friend Connect:

Description

Was / is a wish on the community forum:
http://community.wikidot.com/forum/t-110927/support-google-friend-connect:how-to-upload-html-into-the-root-directory-of-my-wiki-site#post-327259 :

Hi,

I have finally got the invitation from Google Friend Connect. Friend Connect will basically add social network features to your site without coding. To make it work, it asks you to put two html files into the root directory of your wiki site. In my case, this is

http://www.iphonecampus.com/

However, it looks like, in wikidot, all of the files are uploaded to

http://www.iphonecampus.com/local--files/your-page-name/your-file-name

I am wondering is there any way to do this? Or shall Wikidot come up a way to support Google Friend Connect? just like Google Analytics.

Screenshot

If possible, please include a screenshot. If the service has a screenshot on it's
main page, just say so, that's good enough.

If you need a place to host the screenshot for free, you can use your own
personal wiki (create one!) or just use http://www.tinypic.com.

several video embeds

Sun, 16 Nov 2008 00:44:44 +0000

So I'm working on a gaming related wiki that pull in media from a variety of sources. Most of the videos I want to embed are hosted on community/gaming news sites, which are not supported by Wikidot. Embedding HTML is possible but is far too user unfriendly.
