    To implement Monoslideshow in Wordpress, you first have to <a href="http://www.kimili.com/plugins/kml_flashembed">download Kimili Flash Embed</a>.

    1. Put Kimili Flash Embed in your plugins folder: /wp-content/plugins/
    2. Make a new folder: /wp-content/monoslideshow/
    3. Upload your .SWF, .XML, images and thumbnails to this folder.
    4. Make a new page in Wordpress.
    5. Place this code somewhere in your new post:
    <code>[kml_flashembed movie="/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" /]</code>
    6. To pass Flash variables to the Kimili code (for example, to disable the startup logo), please use this code:
    <code>[kml_flashembed movie="/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" fvars="showLogo=false" /]</code>

    <em>Note: the base tag is important! Without it, Monoslideshow wouldn't know where to look for the .XML file.</em>

    Somehow this doesnt seem to work on m WP install(v2.0.4). It shows up the code on the page itself

    <code>[kml_flashembed movie="/wp-content/monoslideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="/wp-content/monoslideshow/" height="300" width="400" fvars="showLogo=false" /]</code>

    And when you put this code in the html source? (i.e.: Push the html button in Wordpress)

    when i add this code in word press,

    [kml_flashembed movie="blog/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="blog/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" /]

    it works just fine in the preview window and on the main page in the site, but when i add a <!--more-->[kml_flashembed movie="blog/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="blog/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" /]

    and publish it does not show up on the page. basically i want the slide show embed in the post page not my main page, this works for me with many other .swf. any help would be greatly appreciated

    I was able to implement the MSS in the header but I got a message from MSS which goes : <strong>No images found in .XML-file.</strong>
    I did follow the instruction above by the letter but there is no way to show my pictures.
    After that I create <strong>/wp-content/slideshow/ </strong> folder I did upload the swf,xml in it and my images in a folder named "images" inside the slideshow folder and in my XML file I set the path to:

    <strong>imagePath="images"</strong> but nothing and there is no way to show my pictures in any possible way or path like an absolute one.
    anyone? please ;(

    yes thats what I'm wondering too. I wasn't sure if the image path was absolute either.

    I edited the header.php in my \wp-content-\theme\default and placed the swf/xml and album folder in there. but just in case I also placed the album folder in the wordpress root but neither worked??

    what code did you use in the header?

    • CommentAuthorjustixia

    This is it

    <div id="splash">[kml_flashembed movie="/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="/wp-content/slideshow/" height="150" width="800" fvars="showLogo=false" /]</div>

    I did put same folder on the root of the site and point the path to: image="http://www.mysite.com/images" but nothing still same error, I don't get it and i'm also in a bit of a rush too ;( Maybe the flash file is not reading the xml for some reason? i'm confused

    • CommentAuthorjustixia
    • CommentTimeOct 5th 2007 edited

    Sorted!

    I used this code in my header.php <div id="mss">[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.yoursite.com/monoslideshow.swf" base="http://www.yoursite.com" height="150" width="800" fvars="showLogo=false" /]</div> Height and size are obviously part of my template...
    Basically Instead of using the path suggested in this 3d I used the root and upload the swf,xml and folder with images to it.
    Don't ask me how but even if the header is in a template folder it work like a charm.

    I'm having a few problems aligning in the default WP Theme. Does someone here have some CSS experience? My site: http://swisshut.com/travelblog/

    My header.php:
    <body>
    <div id="page">
    <div id="header">
    <div class="headcontainer">

    <div class="flashhead">
    [kml_flashembed movie="http://swisshut.com/travelblog/monoslideshow.swf" base="http://swisshut.com/travelblog/" height="182" width="730" fvars="showLogo=false" /]
    </div>
    </div>
    </div>

    My CSS:

    .headcontainer {
    position: relative;
    height: 350px;
    }
    .flashhead {
    position: absolute;
    padding:18px 0px 0px 2px;

    I'm using this method and it's working fine, I even have the movie being loaded into another swf file with no problems at all, except, I can't turn off the monoslideshow logo on load. Using:

    fvars="showLogo=false"

    does nothing for me, does it work for you guys?

  1.  permalink

    http://jameswaites.com/?p=259&preview=true

    I followed these instructions and I end with at blank white box on my blog page.

    3. Upload your .SWF, .XML, images and thumbnails to this folder.

    I did this and just added the test info from the .zip download to test it all.

    Nothing happens, it does not appear to run anything

    Please assist

    Thanks

    worked it out.

    you say to create
    2. Make a new folder: /wp-content/monoslideshow/

    then you use slideshow there not monoslideshow in the exanple above. when I substituted monoslideshow all worked.

    So is there a definitive answer in all of these posts to getting Monoslide to work in Wordpress? It makes me nervous to hand over $20 for a product when I can't tell from 21 posts whether it's going to work on my site or not. I just want to put it in a page, so if one of these posts has the answer for someone like me that doesn't know much about flash, please let me know.

    Hello!

    I would love to implement the MSS in WordPress 2.7.1.
    I have uploaded all, what is needed...

    And I make a new post, and in HTML mode I insert the line:

    <em>[kml_flashembed movie="/wp-content/slideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="/wp-content/slideshow/" height="300" width="400" /]</em>

    However, it does not realise that this is a HTML code, it is displayed as it is, as a text in the post.

    I guess there is something to put before and after this line... what should it be???

    THANKS,

    Tamas
    (I have seen many SlideShow plugins with WordPress, and still I find MSS the best.)

    Greetings,

    Tamas

    Look at post #1. Steps 5 & 6 contain a different directory than step 2 (!). It is labeled "slideshow" instead of "monoslideshow". Fix that, and the slideshow will appear on your site. Maybe if someone from the monoslideshow corp read this forum they would have figured it out by this point...Good luck!

    I am getting an error with monoslideshow's 2.0 version saying "img" is an invalid node. What does that mean? how can I fix it? I really would like to use this slideshow to highlight my previous design work.

    Try changing your image tags from version 1 code <img src=
    to version 2

    I tried it and it still is giving me the same error.
    This is the script I am using on Wordpress:
    [kml_flashembed movie="http://www.designercreative.com/wp-content/monoslideshow/monoslideshow.swf" base="http://www.designercreative.com/wp-content/monoslideshow/monoslideshow.xml" height="320" width="525" fvars="showLogo=false" /]
    I don't know what I am missing to make the slideshow work.

    In your XML, there is no

    itemPath="images" listed.

    You also have the

    startWithAlbumID="insects"

    which I believe is something you carried from the demo unnecessarily.

    As for wordpress, I can't help you. I have no experience with it. I will say that your swf file is working
    http://www.designercreative.com/wp-content/monoslideshow/monoslideshow.swf
    but without the imagepath, it does not know where to look for the images. It does appear after you make these changes to your XML file you will still have an embedding issue with wordpress.

    I assume the page you are trying to get working is

    http://www.designercreative.com/wp-content/monoslideshow/

    I do not get the img error that you say you are getting.

    Did you download the Kimili Flash Embed????

    Hi all,

    I'm using Kimili and I'd like to disable both startup logo and registration info. I tried fvars="showLogo=false,showRegistration=false" but it didn't work.
    Also I need to use DataFile variable in the fvar.
    Any suggestions?
