As advised I'm humbly asking for a Habari 0.7 plugin compatibility
update.

The plugin in question is *jwmediaplayer* : http://code.google.com/p/bcse/wiki/JWMediaPlayer
I use version *0.2* ( all files here : http://www.mediafire.com/?e4aj6lma5snfiju
) with Habari 0.6.6, but despite the presence of theme.xml with the
required *pluggable* tags, activating under Habari 0.7 results in a
blank page.

PS : uploading a trunk version here : http://habariproject.org/dist/plugins/
would be very much appreciated!

TIA !

You're in luck, there is already a 0.7 compatible version created by "bcse" (he pops intoI IRC from time to time) - see the link riiiiiiight at the bottom of the page you linked to :-)

Re adding it to dist/plugins: that's something bcse would need to agree to as it's his plugin.  Drop him a line and he might agree to it.

Colin, thanks for getting back to me.

I now realise I failed to make clear that I actually used the files
you pointed out : http://bcse.googlecode.com/svn/habari-extras/plugins/jwmediaplayer/
I can see the plugin, but when I activate it, a blank page results ...

Perhaps I'd better get in contact about this with the dev ...

The media player doesn't have a license that would allow it to be put
in -extras.

I just received a mail from Joel (answering my mail request for
help) :

Hi,

Please check new version in SVN.
-unquote-

His new 0.3 version is now here : http://bcse.googlecode.com/svn/habari-extras/plugins/jwmediaplayer/
I've just installed it (local install) with Habari 0.7 and it now
activates perfectly !

Thank you all for your contributions & helpful suggestions ! Habari
rocks !

It appears that reporting the plugin working was premature. Although
it now activates perfectly, it doesn't work with Habari 0.7 : nothing
shows in my posts anymore, using the correct plugin syntax.

I mailed with the plugin dev today, who promptly reported that most
likely the Habari AutoParagraph plugin was to blame :

Hi Peter,

It's looks like AutoParagraph plugin insert HTML in JavaScript and
make JWMediaPlayer cannot work. This is AutoParagraph's bug, it should
not add <p> in <script>.

Since there's no way to programmatically change Formatters sequence, I
suggest you try a more advanced Formatter -- Habari Markdown.

Bummer ...

So now I have to find the elusive Markdown plugin ...

Update : I just installed & activated the Habari markdown plugin from
here : http://habariproject.org/dist/plugins/

Problem solved : all my self hosted videos with the help of the
jwmediaplayer plugin magically reappeared !!!

Could you also open a ticket about the autop plugin screwing up your script tags?

That us definitely a bug that needs to be addressed if possible.

This should now be fixed in trunk.
