Feature Request - Embed a Tumblr Post

[adminabp]

I know this has been asked about before, and I honestly thought when Google+ was removed from the embed options that Tumblr would probably quickly take its place. Any chance of that happening?

Here's a link to a Tumblr post and it's embed code as an example:

stormfan27.tumblr.com/post/185215701001/jean-grey-iceman-and-storm-from-the-uncanny-x-men/embed

Hi

There is no limit to the embed options, so it isn't a case of remove one, and add one. I have marked this as a feature request, so hopefully it gets considered for addition to the embed option

You should be able to get this accomplished in a roundabout way using the plugin posted here, just add the following to the plugin's settings to allow access to the tumblr domain


^{NOTE: there is a leading period on the host name to allow for subdomains}

Once the domain is setup in the plugin you can then write the following in a post to generate the embed

[a href="https://embed.tumblr.com/embed/post/Fe-JZ2E01qTZ0hYVr09MQQ/185215701001" name="embed" style="height: 1086px;width:542px;"]test[/a]

For best results use the url taken from the embed code rather than the url to the tumblr post

SPOILER: Click to show

Let me know if that gets you a bit closer to your goal.

Chris , it works great! Thank you!!!

I did change .tumblr.com to embed.tumblr.com for the host to prevent people posting whole Tumblr pages...

I also used the censored words list to create pseudo-BBCode [tumblr][/tumblr] tags(changed 'test' to 'Tumblr-post') so people would only need to post the embed url...

I also used your Control Freak™ plugin to create a button for easy use...and...

Ta-da!

Edit: Spoke too soon. It doesn't show in the recent posts widget on my home page.

Happy to hear!

Widgets are going to be a bit difficult since it walks the data structure for posts and posts within widgets are not included in that structure but I'll see what I can do.

EDIT

Updated the plugin with a workaround for widgets, let me know if it works for you (download from original link)
