Hi - I've looked across the Web and can't find an answer. I used to
use the Export to Wordle feature of Lite and people loved it. I can't
use it in Safari, Firefox or Chrome on Mac OS. Any update? has this
feature died a silent death?
Thanks

Hi Tom, I wrote that feature for the old Etherpad but haven't written
it for the new Etherpad yet.

You can still use it on the pro pads at http://primarypad.com

If this feature is important for you let me know and I can get you an
estimate(timescale/cost) on writing it as a plugin that you can deploy
to your own Etherpad Lite site.

Hi John and Peter,

I've signed up for Primary Pad and the result is the same as the (yes!) Wordle feature in Lite.  Click on the icon and nothing happens.  Could Wordle's API have changed or ??

Again, I've tested this across three Mac browsers and all have the same (no) result.  The other export formats work.  In 24 hours I'll be using EtherPad Lite with a group of teachers and in the past they have loved this feature and I'd love them to love it again ;-)

Cheers, Tom --

Update!

When in Timeslider - the Wordle export works, but definitely does not in the standard view.  Further info.

Thanks, Tom --

I have tested and @Tom is right, it works when in timeslider, but wouldn't be nicier to download an image instead of opening wordle? i'm using an iframe to show etherpad, thanks to the jquery plugin, and when wordle opens up, user gets confused and there is no way to go back.

Can do you do me a favor and create a github issue?

We're about to start getting back through them all (we have been re-locating etc)
