Troubles Embedding Fig?

There have been a lot of troubles reported by people trying to embed Fig in their website. In light of that, I have changed the embed code and rewritten the documentation on how to place fig in your website. All the examples on the demo page use the new simplified embed code. You can view the source on those pages for examples on how to embed fig.

I also suggest using a crossdomain.xml file to alleviate any problems, as is explained in the documentation on how to place fig in your website.

I was using the swfObject method for flash detection, but it was causing problems on different browsers. If you would still like to use swfObject, you can download it from their site.

The new method I am using for embedding flash content is to make it as simple as possible using the Flash Satay method. My theory is that people can get fig working quicker with this method and if they need a more robust solution they can add swfOject or something else later.

If you have been having troubles embedding fig, give the new documentation a look over.

FigPro Update: Flickr Integration

FigPro now has basic flickr integration for photostreams and photosets. More details on the flickr integration documentation page.

FigPro also has a new setting in the XML settings called galleryPadTop which will determine at what height thumbnails will start. Normally all thumbnails start just below the navigation menu, but that extra spacing is not needed when the removeNav setting is set to true and no navigation is shown. Now thumbnails can start at the top by setting galleryPadTop to zero.
