  Hi guys,

  I’m trying to embed the SlideShare presentation to the page: http://businessavatar.wordpress.com/2012/11/27/distribution-competencies/

  It’s embedding, but is presented only on 2/3 of the page width (like if limited by sidebar widget panel which I have hidden).

  If I embed YouTube for instance, it looks ok – full width:

  [slideshare id=24352198]
  [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4plftv4aCSc%5D

  In CSS customization preview mode SlideShare embed looks right on the full width.

  How can I fix it? May be there some tags which I could add within [slideshare id=24352198] to make it justify the full width?

  Thank you in advance, Alex

  Hi there,

  This CSS bit should make the slideshow full width:

  iframe {
      width: 100%;
  }

  Keep in mind that you can customize the width and height of your slideshow by adding these parameters &w=650&h=500 to the end of the shortcode. See http://en.support.wordpress.com/slideshows/slideshare/#customizing for examples.

  Wow, finally “&w=650&h=500” worked out! Thanks a lot!
