=== NFB Video Plugin === Contributors: NFB_ONF Tags: video, url embed, oembed, post, nfb Requires at least: 2.8 Tested up to: 3.8.1 Stable tag: trunk The NFB Video Plugin is designed to allow users to embed videos from sites who provide autodiscoverable oembed links on their film pages. == Description == The NFB Video Plugin is designed to allow users to embed videos from sites who provide autodiscoverable oembed links on their film pages. Previously, to embed a film, we had to provide the entire object or embed the information ourselves; we had to play with the sizes and hope that we didn't break it. When a site contains autodiscovery, you only need to enter "oe" followed by the pasted link and it will seek out the embed and set it to the size you defined. Good examples to test it are : oehttp://www.nfb.ca/film/louise_en/ Set 1 size for all your embeds! == Installation == 1. Upload nfb_video_plugin to your plugin directory wp-content/plugins/nfb_video_plugin 2. Go to the Plug-ins tab in your administration panel and activate the plugin. 3. Take a page from a site like NFB.ca like : http://www.nfb.ca/film/louise_en/ or http://www.onf.ca/film/paow_paow_te_mort/ 4. Type "oe" minus the quotes followed immediately by the URL. oehttp://www.nfb.ca/film/louise_en/ or oehttp://www.onf.ca/film/paow_paow_te_mort/ 5. Adjust your settings in the Settings->NFB Video Plugin. == Frequently Asked Questions == WHAT IS OEMBED? oEmbed is a format for allowing an embedded representation of a URL on third party sites. The simple API allows a website to display embedded content (such as photos or videos) when a user posts a link to that resource, without having to parse the resource directly.
