How do I properly embed a DailyMotion video?
-
I’ve followed the instructions and copied the code correctly – [dailymotion id=xgeg3u], and the video shows up in the published post, but once you click on it, it opens up a new tab and won’t play within the WordPress post. How do I get my video to play properly within my post?

If you’re on a tight internet connection, it could be that’s the problem. It works just fine for me on a very good connection. You have a lot of media etc in that post, and it does take quite a while to load. Once the post is loaded, however, the video plays fine for me using Chrome.

No, that’s not the problem. Once the video loads up, it won’t play in that page – it redirects to the DailyMotion website in another tab. I’ve tried it on Chrome and IE on my computer and on Chrome on my girlfriend’s MacBook – no joy in any case.

What I’m saying is, no that’s not the case. I’m using Chrome and it played just fine in the page for me.
Have you tried it on a different internet provider altogether?
-
Internet provider? Yes – I was in the library earlier, now I’m at home and it didn’t work in either place.

And besides which, the demo video in the DailyMotion instructions page works OK and does not open in a new tab (http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/dailymotion/).

Played OK for me embedded in your page – I stayed on your page and was not redirected – Firefox
