I have successfully installed FV Flowplayer onto my WordPress site but the icon has not appeared above the editor panel. What have I missed ?

Hi John,
the icon placement should definitely work with default wordpress editor and with our Foliopress WYSIWYG editor. Are you using one of these? Or are you using something completely else?

Hi Zdenka
I am using WordPress 3.2.1 with the Atahualpa theme 3.6.7 and am using the default WordPress editor.
Flowplayer is listed in Plugins and is activated. But not listed in widgets. It also is listed under settings. Despite this the icon does not appear above the editor panel.
I have tried deactivating then activating again no luck.
On my theme forum a search produced this comment ……..
There seems to be a problem with flowplayer – try deactivating it. It’s creating a
HTML Code:
<script src=”http://bodytalkhealing.org/downloads/flowplayer-3.0.6.min.js”>With no closing ‘</script>’ so everything after it is treated as part of the script and is not displayed. It shows up just before the </head> so that is why nothing shows.

Does any of the above help to identify the problem ?

Hi John,
I have just tested the WP3.2.1 with your theme, and I can see the Flowplayer button (exactly as described here). It’s not located in the editor top bar, but just above it where other Upload/Insert buttons are.
Also the problem you have found is not related to our FV WordPress Flowplayer plugin, it’s probably related to the plugin from Flowplayer.org, as we do not use code you pasted.
This seems like some problem with your local installation, maybe you can check if you don’t have some javascript conflicts there.

Hello Zdenka
Many thanks for looking into the problem with Flowplayer.
I tried deactivating all plugins (except Flowplayer) but the icon still did not appear. Very frustrating and not sure what to try next.

Hi John,
as far as the latest version of FV Flowplayer seems to be rather stable and no other complaints about missing icon has been noted, we assume this is really a local conflict.
I am sorry I can’t help you because I am unable to replicate your problem – I have tried the theme and it was working.
Maybe one more check if flowplayer is installed properly: if you type in the shortcode manually into the page or post, does the video play? Try out the most simple example:
[flowplayer src="http://example.com/pathtoyourvideo/example.mp4"]Also, we do offer a pro install of our plugins, check it out here.

Hi Zdenka
The mystery deepens. I inserted the shortcode as suggested but with no success. So presumably the problem lies with the installation. I shall try reinstalling at some stage but meanwhile I thank you for your prompt response to my enquiry.
John
