videos not working
Sep 20 2009, 4:09 PM EDT | Post edited: Sep 20 2009, 4:09 PM EDT
I am having some problems... I went to check up on the site this evening and my videos that are hosted on teachertube are not working. It seems you only accept video uploads from certain sites. This would be okay but the sites such as Youtube are blocked in schools. The only reason I use teachertube is for this reason.

I am well and truly stumped if students can’t see my videos.

Can you give me any help with this as my website looks a mess at present, Do you find this valuable?

Wetpaint does only except videos from certain sites. Even though I have never heard of the "teachertube."

Or you could try refreshing the page, or restarting your browser. Do you find this valuable?

I think they only except codes from MSN and YouTube.

You may want to check if you have the right code. Do you find this valuable?

TeacherTube should work. To embed a video from TeacherTube, you need to go to the video you want, and copy the embedded code. Then, when you edit a page, hit the Widget Button on the Easy edit bar. From there, select the "Other Widget" widget, and then paste the embedded code into the widget. Then, it should work. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

thanks for that. Great help. Will go off and try it now. Strange how they dissapeared in the first place as they worked fine for a year or so. Maybe a new update messed them up.
Thanks again,
Rich. Do you find this valuable?
