Docstoc embedding code - still issue - Private/Public sharing
Jul 24 2010, 8:36 PM EDT
This problem is still not resolved. It is not about embedding Docstoc as a widget into Wetpaint. That appears to work fine.It is about the actual document within the widget being seen - or whether they just appear as a spinning wheel - waiting to display. (On several different types of browsers & computers & internet connections.) One thing I have found - when a document is set to Private in Docstoc & the link shared - as instructed & they are supposed to work - I get the spinning wheel. If the same document is changed from Private to Public setting in Docstoc (without re-embedding) - it is then able to be viewed. Not sure what this actually means. Not everyone hosting docs wants to make them publicly accessible. So this is a real issue - that will stop a lot of people using what is otherwise a very good site. Do you find this valuable? |

When one chooses to embed documents via a widget then all the documents in your folders will display . If the document has been selected as private then only those you want to share the PRIVATE URL for the document will be able to view it. So it is necessary to capture the private url for those private documents and supply a link using the URL address on your wiki page.Hope this sheds some light as to why private documents were not showing up in your widget.
