Hello guys. I have been trying forever to embed flash into my forum. No matter what bbcode i use all that comes up is a blank box can anyone please help me. (P.S I already have flash enable through my admin panel).

None of the option seem to work aeva autoembedder cannot be used for smf 2.0.2. Do you want me to show you what link i want to embed cause none of the auto embeders are working for me or can anyone please demo me on how to use them.

why can't aeva work in SMF 2.0.2 for you? You simply need to use the version emulation feature in the package manager under the advanced link section.

I think AEVA will install on v2.0.2, if you use emulation. (Click "Advanced", when you do the install).

READ MY SIG, BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT IT, THOUGH!!!! :)

Ninja'd by a weirdo!!!  ;)

If i emulate a previous version will all the mods i already installed not work anymore cause they are set to work with smf 2.0.2. Sorry if my questons sound like a newbie because i just installed smf yesterday. Thanks.

As long as you don't get any errors, which will warn you not to proceed, you'll be OK. It won't affect any other mods.

Especially if you read my sig and BACKUP FIRST!!!

noordeep

No. I checked their list they dont support it.

kat

This mod doesn't support yocast, either.

But, if you ask in the support topic http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=436292.0 the author MIGHT be able to help you to make it so. :)

Another solution is write the code by yourself 8)
Here you can see how (with sample + download)
I show SWF files with a small javascript (included in the download).
It is 100% SMF, CSS, XHTML, HTML, PHP, ... compatible.  ;)
A sample you can see in the header of my site on THIS page.

If you're an admin, you can just use [html] tags. For example:

[html]<embed src="http://site.com/flash.swf" width="640" height="480" />[/html]

That's correct, but you will create an error (using of <embed>) when you validate your page with XHTML ...
For this reason i use the javascript solution.
