Flash
files can give extra uniqueness of your WordPress site. But it’s not easy to
embed a flash (.swf) file to WordPress, because you won’t be able to upload
flash for security reasons.
There
are many methods. You can use a plugin to complete this task. You can also do
it by placing some codes into your theme template if you want to show it
directly/by default on theme. I’m going to describe the last method step by
step.
Step –
1: At first, create a folder named “swf” into your root directory. Upload your
flash file into the newly created folder.
Step –
2: If you want to show the file on the top of every page, open the header.php
file. Find out the place where you want to show it. Then put these codes in the
exact place of the header.php file.
<div class="flash">
<object width="960"
height="250">
<param
name="movie" value="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri();
?>/swf/your-file-name.swf"></param>
<param
name="quality" value="high"></param>
<param
name="wmode" value="window"></param>
<param
name="menu" value="false"></param>
<param
name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"></param>
<param
name="flashvars" value=""></param>
<embed
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="960" height="250"
src="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/swf/your-file-name.swf"
quality="high" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" wmode="window"
menu="false" flashvars="" ></embed>
</object>
</div>
Step –
3: Find out “your-file-name.swf” and replace it with the file name you uploaded
into your swf folder.
Step –
4: Now visit your site and check if it is working. It works for me, hope will
also work for you.
Step –
5: If you want to stylize the flash file section from css, you can do it using
a class “flash”.
That’s all.
Try it yourself and run your own flash file.
