[Plugin: Custom Field Template] Embedding Flash

What I need is, for example, to get the Viper′s Video Quicktags working inside the Custom Field Template

or any other video embedding plugin.

Hi,

What i did to embed flash files (swf, not flv) but i think you could do the same with another plugin for FLV.

i use SWFObj plugin to embed flash objects in my posts.

I have a custom post type named ‘produit’. I made a custom template for it with the following field to upload file :

[VCarrousel]
type = file
mediaPicker = true
mediaLibrary = true
alias = Visuel carrousel

I create a single-produit.php to display my ‘produit’ posts where i wrote in these lines :

<?php

//give me the attachement id
$idvc = do_shortcode('[cft key=VCarrousel]');

//if it's an image, display it in 160x160
if (wp_attachment_is_image($idvc)) {
  echo wp_get_attachment_image($idvc , 'attachment-160x160' ) ;
}
else {
  //check if it's a flash file from the mime type
  if (preg_match('@(shockwave|flash)@i',get_post_mime_type($idvc))) {
    echo do_shortcode('[swfobj src="'. wp_get_attachment_url($idvc) . '" dynamic_embed="true" play="false"]');
  }
}
?>

I think you could use the Flash Video Player plugin instead of SWFObj and modify the above code to match the fvp shortcode.

Good luck !

Yes, thank You for the answer.

I decided to go a different way, but I hazard to quess that many people will find Your answer useful in the future!
