How do you get presentation shortcode to work?

  • Unknown's avatar

    My presentation shortcode doesn’t work properly on my eventbrite multi event theme.
    This is what I’m trying to test but it gives me a presentation window with no slides and no text.

    [presentation width="550" height="410"]
    [slide]Hello[/slide]
    [slide]Welcome[/slide]
    [/presentation]

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    I had a similar problem with a new page that I am producing. I referred to http://en.support.wordpress.com/presentations/. The presentation shortcode was working great, but not the slide shortcode. How did I write it? I tried the following slide shortcodes, like in comment forms and audio tags:
    [presentation width=600 height=600 duration=2 transition="none" scale=1 fade="on" bgcolor=#000000]
    [slide id="12"]
    [slide <img src="http://weavergrace.com/etc.">]
    [slide http://weavergrace.com/etc.%5D
    [/presentation]

    Finally, this worked:
    [slide]<img src=”https://weavergrace.com/etc.” />[/slide]

    I hope that this experience will justify someone editing the webpage for presentations.

    Hey thanks for the reply!

    I just tried what you said and it still just gives me the presentation window with no slides, can’t even scroll to a next slide.

    I suppose they just don’t work on my eventbrite multi-event theme because I did try it with success on another theme. Since then I’ve given up on getting it to work on my blog. Can’t find any help about it!
