  I have a rather large headache. I am trying to get a classroom site up and running for my wife’s Junior High classes, and her district has locked down pretty much every video service that wordpress.COM supports (IE, if it’s popular with the kids, she can’t access it from the classroom.)

  They do allow her to use 1 service called SchoolTube, but I can’t embed the videos on the site, just links. Is there anyway to make video embeds work with a non-traditional site?

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

  I see that SchoolTube provides iframe code for embedding videos. That is the only method that seems to be available. iframe is blocked on WordPress.com sites for security reasons. Sorry about that. It looks like you will just have to link to them!

  I was afraid of that. Thanks anyway.
