thanks for supporting me; I am really clueless. And I wanted embed.ly to work because it's exactly what I was looking for.
When saving the plugin after I gave it an URL it says "Processing" and closes. but the block remains empty. Even after viewing the page hours later it remains empty.
I tried to fill height and width and activated description - nothing changed. Not even a placeholder is inserted. The next block follows immediately after the titel of the block.

]]>Sorry - I meant to get back to you earlier in the week but haven't had an opportunity.
The Embed.ly plugin works with the link you suggested in your previous post for me -- it will only be shown when viewing the Page, not when editing it though.
So when I add the plugin to my Page, and give it a URL, it adds it with a title. When I actually view that page, it displays.
Are you seeing it not appear at all when you try and view the Page too?

Thanks and Regards,

I did it; now embed.ly is installed under path blocktype and database is cleaned towards artefact "NULL"
But, nevertheless, the plugin doesn't work. I tried the example URL "http://vimeo.com/18150336" and several others out of the service list. Nothing; empty.
Now I am totally clueless

]]>First of all, back up your database!
I've just tested this but I'm not 100% familiar with this part of the datastructure. I don't believe that this change should break anything, but you can never be to certain.
First things first, you can only have one copy of the blocktype installed at once. I've just followed the following steps to successfully move the plugin from /artefact/file/blocktype/ to /blocktype/ :
I believe that this database change should mean that you don't have to re-install the blocktype, or uninstall the artefact/file blocktype.

]]>thx for your time and support!
You're right. The embed.ly plugin should be installed in blocktype not in artefact. I was on a wrong path.
So; I reinstalled the plugin in /blocktype. Now the problem with [[xxx]] is solved. But I can't deinstall the plugin from artefact and the installation of the plugin fails (because it is installed already.) In case I delete the plugin in artefact folder a bug is reportet and and the administration site doesn't load.
So how can I correct my misinstallation? Should I delete the install entry in MyPHP database?
I hope you have an idea. Thanks in advance.

Unless I'm very much mistaken, the embedly blocktype shoudl go into /blocktype rather than /artefact/file/blocktype... Perhaps someone could correct me if I'm wrong?

]]>May be that the problem using embedly is rooting outside.
But besides embedly doesn't function. It remains empty.
/artefact/file/blocktype/embedly/lang/de.utf8/blocktype.embedly.php
(even if using en instead of de the promblem persists)
Conrad
Is the language file present? It should be in:
htdocs/blocktype/embedly/lang/en.utf8/blocktype.embedly.php

]]>I'm using the latest version 1.03 launched for Mahara 1.4
Conrad
]]>Which version of the Embed.ly plugin are you using?
I've just tried installing version 1.0.3 on a fresh install of Mahara 1.4 and the titles are present and correct. When you installed the plugin, did you copy the lang directory too? It sounds like you're missing the language strings.

]]>I have a problem in using embedly.
I uploaded the plugin, installed it. In extension I can see the icon but with that texts: [[title/blocktype.embedly]] and [[description/blocktype.embedly]].
When taking the plugin into a page the texts are also shown as "Variable" like
"[[title/blocktype.embedly]]: Konfiguration" or "[[showdescription/blocktype.embedly]]" - and it doesn't work.
Whats going wrong and how can I fix that?
Thanks in advance and Regards
Conrad
PS: Using Mahara 1.4; PHP 5.2.16; MySQL 5.1.52
