A few sites affiliated with my own are having issues with the "embed" code for WeGame.com . Many of us use the WordPress software which made me think it was a wordpress issue. However, some people are having the same issue with non-wordpress software as well. All of the sites are using some type of blogging software for their site (if that helps any). The embed code always gives the error that one of the tags are either bad or, can't be used for one reason or another. I'm still wondering if it's our end or maybe there's another problem. I'm not sure. :) |

Can you link us to an example of it not working correctly?

Well..since it won't work I can't very well link you an example. One of the sites we have gives us a bad tag error which I will copy and paste here. Here is one error we get; Your HTML cannot be accepted: Tags cannot enclose tags embed src="http://www.wegame.com/static/flash/player2.swf?tag"="Weekly_Video_Review_19" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="480" height="387> Word Press software just plain does not work. We have to embed any videos manually. |

Wordpress is pretty much crap... if it refuses to let you post HTML, there's probably nothing you can do about it. I've used Wordpress briefly on my own blog, but I was hosting it myself. (i.e. it wasn't on a subdomain of wordpress.com)

The error I posted didn't come from WordPress though. That was just..a regular error. WordPress just says "nope. Not gonna do it." So there's still something up =/ |

You still haven't specified what the "error" you're encountering actually says. Unfortunately, we can't read minds yet. :)

I posted it. But it came out weird because I tried to copy and paste the whole thing. It basically says there's an error and gives the string of html in your copy and paste code that it won't accept. However, if we embed it manually..it works OK. Either it's an issue on our end or something with what we're using maybe? I don't know. *laughs* I'm not the most savvy at code and all of that. |

I guess it's just all the various blogging software blocking something in our embed code. There's really nothing we can do about it, unfortunately. You may have to change some settings in Wordpress/etc. to allow you to post HTML. Aside from that, I can't really offer any advice. Maybe posting a screenshot of the error or Googling for the exact error message will reveal some clues.

I'll give those a shot. It's not a massive issue really..the largest concern was that others might have this problem. If it's just us then we'll figure it out on our end. Thank you! |
