Basic Usage

Upgrade Note—If you’re upgrading from a 1.x version of this plugin, you likely have <txp:kml_flashembed_js /> tags in your page templates. With KFE 2.0, those tags are no longer used, so it is safe to remove them.

Once you’ve installed and activated the plugin, you can add Flash content to your pages using a tag like this in your articles or anywhere else in the Textpattern environment:

  1. <txp:kml_flashembed movie="filename.swf" height="150" width="300" />

The only required attribute in a KFE tag is movie. See the KFE home page for all available attributes and advanced usage.

The easiest way to create and insert KFE tags is by is by using the Tag Generator. When you’re editing an article, form or page, you should see a link on the left that reads “Insert Flash”. Click on that to launch the Tag Generator and build your KFE tag.

If you’d like to use the Express Install capabilities of KFE, there’s a bit of configuration you need to do. Included with the plugin is an expressinstall.swf file. First, upload that file somewhere on your site – in Content → Files in the Textpattern admin is fine. Second, you need to navigate to Extensions → Kimili Flash Embed and set the Express Install URL option to point to the URL of the expressinstall.swf. (If you uploaded it in Content → Files, you shouldn’t have to change anything).

For more in-depth details on using KFE, including the configuration options and the Tag Generator, among other things, please refer to the KFE home page
