Slideshare.net slideshows for Wordpress MU

Now you can add Slideshare.net slideshows to your Wordpress-MU blogs.

Download
Get the slideshre-mu plugin here (just change the .txt extension to .php).

Install
Drop the slideshare-mu.php file into your wp-content/plugin and activate it. If you are running Wordpress MU just drop it in the wp-content/plugins-mu directory.

Usage
The usage is the same as it is for wp.com users:

Slideshows and PowerPoint presentations from Slideshare.net can be embedded into your blog posts and pages via a Slideshare shortcode. Shortcodes can be found by going to any slideshow on the Slideshare site and copying the following embed code:

The code can then be pasted into any blog post or page to make the slideshow show up.

  1. I like the look and feel of this widget. I’d normally use this for regular pictures, but I was thinking about work when I stopped by and the word ’slide’ made me think of powerpoint slides.

    I think I might try this with some work slide shows which might take up less space than a video presentation.

  2. Many thanks for the fix and for sharing it, credit here: http://edublogs.org/2007/04/25/myedubloglog-slideshare/
