Features

  • Easy install
  • Upload and embed Flash media using WordPress's native media tools
  • Insert Flash objects with simple short code
  • Supports all Flash param options including flashvars, wmode and allowFullscreen
  • Granular level of control allows easy overriding of default options
  • Generates <object> code for RSS compatibility
  • Can embed objects dynamically using javascript or statically
  • Uses SWFObject 2.2 for greater browser support
  • HTML5 compliant, allowing enhanced alt content for browsers without Flash plugin

Insert Flash content into a post or page using the Flash media button, or simple shortcode:

[swfobj src="movie.swf"]
[swfobj src="movie.swf" height="250" width="400"]
