Inserting Issuu docs in Wordpress
The code Issuu provides isn’t directly allowed in wp.com blogs, for security reasons. But Issuu docs are flash, so they can be inserted via the gigya shortcode (see here for details). The shortcode can be pasted into the HTML post or page editor, or in a text widget for your sidebar. Click the “Get Embed Code” button on the Issuu page, change options if you wish or if necessary (check my posts on maximum main column width and sidebar width). Copy the Embed code and paste it into a simple text edit file. The code will look like this: <div><object style="width:420px;height:291px" ><param name="movie" value="http://static.issuu.com/webembed/viewers/style1/v1/IssuuViewer.swf? mode=embed&amp;layout=http%3A%2F%2Fskin.issuu.com%2Fv%2Flight %2Flayout.xml&amp;showFlipBtn=true&amp;documentId=110112222457cb9ed073cfab4e07872b9179091ebf5e&amp;docName=p365&amp;username=mosabua&amp;loadi ngInfoText=Project365%3A2010%20-%20one%20photo%20the %20day&amp;et=1295343126562&amp;er=88" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"/><param name="menu" value="false"/><embed src="http://static.issuu.com/webembed/viewers/style1/v1/IssuuViewer.swf" type="application/xshockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" menu="false" style="width:420px;height:291px" flashvars="mode=embed&amp;layout=http%3A%2F%2Fskin.issuu.com%2Fv%2Fcolor %2Flayout.xml&amp;backgroundColor=330018&amp;showFlipBtn=true&amp;documentId=1101 12222457cb9ed073cfab4e07872b9179091ebf5e&amp;docName=p365&amp;username=mosabua&amp;loadi ngInfoText=Project365%3A2010%20-%20one%20photo%20the %20day&amp;et=1295344207318&amp;er=26" /></object><div style="width:420px;textalign:left;"><a href="http://issuu.com/mosabua/docs/p365?mode=embed&amp;layout=http%3A %2F%2Fskin.issuu.com%2Fv%2Flight%2Flayout.xml&amp;showFlipBtn=true" target="_blank">Open publication</a> – Free <a href="http://issuu.com" target="_blank">publishing</a> – <a href="http://issuu.com/search?q=365" target="_blank">More 365</a></div></div> Copy the sections I have highlighted in bright red and turn them into a working shortcode this way (dimensions can be changed): [gigya RED SECTIONS HERE width="420" height="291" ]
