How to add YoWindow to wordpress.com-blog?

[portaleazzurro]

You can already now...
or will be possible in future?


I have two blogs with http://www.wordpress.com
I tried to insert the widget yowindow
by copying the following code





the result was this




obviously not like blogger, and wordpress.com does not accept this code.

Currently I have included a small photo that I linked to yowindow.com/online.






As I saw in the link you can add the parameter landscape , what can I do it because it appears the background of this topic? http://yowindow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=1026
(Instead of Village or Piramids or Colosseum)?







If I connect http://landscape.yowindow.com/landscapes ...... I denied access.

Is there any site where I can upload the file YWL and then connect it to parameter landscape of yowindow.com/online?

I use a plugin to make it happen in Wordpress, the http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/kimili-flash-embed/

The code it generates looks like this

Code: Select all

[kml_flashembed publishmethod="static" fversion="8.0.0" movie="http://swf.yowindow.com/wimo/hpPal/hpPal.swf" width="640" height="425" wmode="transparent" targetclass="flashmovie" fvars="value=background=#FFFFFF&location_id=gn:2751085&location_name=Maurik&landscape=http://www.wsm.nl/maurik.ywl&current_weather_url=http://www.wsm.nl/yowindow.xml&time_format=24&unit_system=metric&lang=nl"]

Maybe I'll try to make some easier way to add Yowindow to Wordpress but that will have to wait till the summer is over

http://www.wordpress.com and other http://www.wordpress.org

wordpress.com does not allow to load plugins.

I hope to be wrong, but unfortunately you confuse between wordpress.org (self hosted) and wordpress.com.

Today I sent a help request (on behalf of PUTIGNANONELMIRINO) to the wordpress.com forums.http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/wi ... ost-492211

hopefully good

[portaleazzurro]

I got the answer

http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/wi ... ost-492573

Unfortunately you have to wait

(I discovered, however, that prior to my request in the forum wordpress.com word "Yowindow" did not exist.)
Now exist.

Franco, thank you much for your investigation!

I think we need to add an explanation on how to add YoWindow widget to wordpress.com
I hope Nico solution will work.

Pavel,
I tried to upload another landscape yowindow / online, but as a result I got only the sky live without landscape.

I took .PNG file and I loaded http://depositfiles.com/en/ (but also in box.net and imageshak).
I got this link and I added in file .YWL (<data src="..." horizonlevel="...">)

I uploaded the file .YWL in http://depositfiles.com/en/
I got this link and I added Yowindow / online:

http://yowindow.com/online.html?locatio ... /8ypdj6u67


The result, again, has been to only see the sky alive.

Now I trust in Nico and Panos http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/ that is a wizard of wordpress.com and should prepare
the shortcode for the widget Yowindow.

In his site I found links to Widgetbox http://www.widgetbox.com/list/blidgets and widgipedia http://www.widgipedia.com/ where this widget Yowindow (but the codes do not work as they are) and I found some of your actions.

Hi

For using an landscape you need also place crossdomain.xml in the root of the site
If you want to trie something you can use you the site

http://131.211.131.10/yowindow/uithof.ywl
http://131.211.131.10/yowindow/img/uithof.png

The picture and the ywl need to be place on the same website

If you need more pictures on this site then let me know

Franco, sorry for the late answer.
Actually Herman has already given it.

There must be a special crossdomain.xml file in the root directory of the server where YoWindow landscape is deployed.
Otherwise YoWindow widget will not be able to display the landscape due to security restrictions of Flash technology.

I'm sorry I still do not have enough time to compose a nice tutorial about "how to add your own landscape inside the widget"

In future (hopefully in 3-4 months) all publish YoWindow landscapes will be hosted on YoWindow server.
That means you will not need to deal with crossdomain.xml problem.
