Is there any way to put flash in the tiki wiki header?

posts: 54

Hello Tiki Helpers

Ive been trying to put flash files in my header using different methods but so far all attempts have failed.

I have tried inserting my flash file into a module and putting the module in the tikitopbar template but the code gets auto stripped. I have also tried putting my code in the site identity and the code gets stripped there too. I have tried using the wiki flash plugin syntax but that did not work for me either. If there is a way of doing this i would greatly appreciate it if someone can provide me with some example code which i can simply insert my flash file name into.

Hoping there is a way to do this

Many thanks

Al

ive tried putting my flash in the tiki-top_bar.tpl but when i press save some of the code gets stripped out by tikiwiki. I really dont understand most code and need a few pointers. Can you provide me with an example of how a flash files code would look in the tiki-top_bar.tpl?. Am i supposed to enclose my code with some other code or something?. An example where i can simply replace the flash file url and size etc would be much appreciated. Im afraid copy and paste is the limit to my coding skills in most cases.

Thanks Gary

If you download the Snow theme, you can look at tiki-top_bar-flash.tpl in the zip. But there's nothing special to see, really. The Flash code, starting and ending with the embed tags, is just put where you want it in the template file, not wrapped with anything (as javascript has to be).

I don't know if you edited the template using Tiki's template editing feature or not. I suspect that if you did, this is where the stripping out happened. I edit files locally and ftp them to the server, and they stay intact.
