Help needed to embed .swf file into Wordpress

Hi all,

I’ve made my first game and would now like to publish it on my own domain. I have Wordpress installed and have uploaded the game to my media library.

The problem is when I publish it, it only creates a link and then safari downloads the game to my desktop.

I would like it so that when you go to my website the game is already there and doesn’t need to be downloaded, so that I can be  played and displayed on my home page.

I’ve tried several flash plugins and even contacted hosting support who told me to ask the plugins developers (they last updated about two years ago, so I doubt they’re going to read or receive any correspondence from me).

Can anyone help to instruct me how to embed the .swf into my homepage?

Thanks for any help.

hi,
what i assume is that you may be having an URL of the swf file....
like abc.com/something/something/game.swf

if so ,
try adding this ;

Code: [Select]

<embed src="the url of that swf file here">
for more reference..... go here

Thank you very much for taking the time to reply to my question greatanthony. I will try it out. I was thinking if it doesn’t work I will try the Wordpress website forum.

Again thank you for helping me.

THANK YOU  greatanthony for helping, it worked!
