Embedding AIR Badges on Wordpress via Kimili Plugin
In my last post, I wanted to distribute a sample AIR application via the user-friendly badge installation process. After taking a look at the available options, I came across an excellent Flash embedding solution for Wordpress called Kimili. Kimili is a Wordpress friendly wrapper on top of Geoff Stearns excellent SWFObject Javascript library.
I thought I would share my code snippet for my previous post in order to help the next person who was trying to get AIR badges in Wordpress going:
Two side-notes:
- The Kimili plugin delimits flashvars with semicolons bracketed by spaces (e.g. ” ; “). I’m not sure why it requires this odd syntax, but things won’t work if you eliminate the spaces.
- I added a space betwen the closing bracket of the tag so that Wordpress wouldn’t interpret it. The correct syntax should be “/]”.
Thanks to Michael Bester for the great library!
