Code tags not visible in your WordPress blog post?

Took me a whole day to write the last post because of an unexpected problem, when I pasted in the code in my blog post and saved it, the code was embedded inside of the actual HTML code instead of showing up as code. No need to say that it also utterly messed up my WordPress template design.

A lot of people write a lot about it and after installing a few useless plug-ins to only display the code as actual code, I came across a list of the most common HTML character entities and just what I needed. So now you know, just use following characters and your code will appear as normal code.

Embed Flash in WordPress Template

KingSystems again, this time in form of a banner I created last night for them.

Was actually struggling with how to insert Flash into this WordPress Template, I am so used to Dreamweaver, I take everything for granted. Simplest thing in the world should be to insert a Shockwave Flash file. But nooo… The good old way would be to just use the html tag but that just didn’t work for me. These crappy WYSIWYG editors just can’t compare to the dream of the Dreamwaver… It’s a lot of trouble shooting about the simplest things.

Anyway, my solution would be to install a plugin called “Kimili Flash Embed for Wordpress”.

All you have to do is to embed this simple line of code:
[kml_flashbed movie=”movie.swf” width=”550″ height=”400″ /]

Then adjust the width and height of your movie and give the exact location. Voila! You’re done!
